The Met Ball is probably my favourite fashion event of the year. Although award shows are heavily centred on fashion and of course there are the fashion weeks themselves, there's something so exclusive and snazzy about the Met Ball.
Held at the Metropolitan Mueseum of Arts in New York, this years tickets rose to $25,000, this years theme was 'White Tie and Decoration' in tribute to Charles James.
Kendall Jenner in my opinion looked absolutely incredible. Wearing a Topshop gown that accentuated her insane figure, I love that she kept accessories simplistic and went for a natural rosy make-up look. As well as that, I really liked that her hair was a little bit messy and wavy, adding a cooler vibe to the extremely sophisticated look. Kendall always manages to look super on-trend but keeps her own vibe throughout.
It's not a Met Ball without power couples right? Of course Beyonce and Jay-Z looked ever the King and Queen of everything, both in Givenchy Couture, B opted for an embellished sheer number whilst Jay looked extremely dapper in a white and black tuxedo. Not 100% how I feel about the head piece, rather Cruella deVille?
Kanye West and Kim Kardashian stole the show. Compared to that shocking dress last year, Kim looked as if she'd never set a foot wrong in the fashion world. Channelling old school glamour with loose waves, Kim's Lanvin dress worked perfectly with her figure and skintone. I am loving the mixture of electric blue and black, with the risqué split. I think this is one of Kim's best red carpet looks. Obviously, Kanye looked handsome and sophisticated as ever - also wearing Lanvin, the duo just looked super cool and everything the Met Ball should be.
Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively looked in-cred-ible.
I have an enormous girl-crush on Blake, she always looks so fresh-faced and happy, wearing Gucci Premiere, her golden/nude dress looked so gorgeous. Ryan didn't look bad either, right? Also wearing Gucci the duo are definitely on Beyonce and Jay's tail when it comes to power couples?!
British models Rosie Huntingdon-Whitely and Suki Waterhouse represented the UK to a tea! Rosie opted for a fierce Balmain look, mixing gold and black which is always a 'yes', she looked like a Roman warrior and insanely gorgeous. Meanwhile, Suki chose the a more feminine look in a layered Burberry gown. I prefer Rosie's nude lip, but Suki's plum lip works so well with the light pink of the Burberry dress.
Two surprise faves were Leighton Meester and Rihanna. I absolutely adore Rihanna's look, I think white looks so chic and is never utilised enough on red carpets. This gown shows off Rihanna's incredible figure but is super sophisticated at the same time - the open back is also something I was naturally drawn to. Leighton also looked beautiful and I love her dewy make-up look and the gold gown she teamed with it, sometimes a thigh high split and plunging neck line can be quite risqué but I think she does it in a really classy way.
So, another Met Ball done and dusted. Who were your faves, who did you hate?
