Met Gala 2013. Best (Punk) Dressed

The Met Gala was a humongous flop (the presenters! the wannabes! THE UGLY DRESSES!), and most of the attendees looked like they’d never heard the word ‘punk’ before. In fact, they probably didn't even know why they were there (Kate Upton, I AM looking at you). But luckily for us, a few ladies and one very special gentleman managed to bring their punk A game to this excruciatingly un-punk event.
 

 

SJP in Giles Deacon. Self-explanatory. And SO incredibly maj.

 

Anne Hathaway looked like a revengeful (almost) punk goddess in a sheer vintage Valentino gown. People should really stop hating this girl. Like, now.
 

 

Madonna in Givenchy Couture by Riccardo Tisci. Now, that’s what I call commitment.

 

Nicole Richie’s custom-made Topshop dress may not have been punk, but her hair definitely was.

 

Dressed in Marc Jacobs, Miley totally punked it out. Yet again.

 

 

Christina Ricci in Vivienne Westwood Couture. Rational thinking.
 

 

Look at Hamish Bowles' nails! And the safety pins! What a punk.

Met Gala 2013. Worst Dressed: Boring Bitches In Ballgowns

What are some of the words that come to mind when you think of punk? Vivienne Westwood? The Clash? Anarchy? These particular guests, however, didn’t get the memo, or simply didn’t give a fuck. With the theme of this year’s MET Gala being Punk: Chaos to Couture, the guests had an opportunity to step outside the box of their typical white tie/ball gown attire and inject some fun into their outfits. Unfortunately, the majority of celebrities dressed exactly the same as they would at any other event.

 

 

Clearly, the 'World's Most Beautiful Woman' thought she was beautiful enough to not get a professional hair and make up job like the rest of the attendees. Well, she probably did, but Gwyneth Paltrow looked rather lacklustre in a fuchsia Valentino gown and slicked back ponytail. 

 

 

Gwyneth’s sidekick made quite the entrance last night. Clearing the rest of the guests off the red carpet to have all the attention to herself, and being the last celebrity to walk gracefully up those MET gala stairs. Oh wait, Madonna was actually last. Nonetheless, Beyoncé had all eyes on her, but that Riccardo Tisci couture dress made me wish we hadn't. From the matching print and boots, satin gloves and Primark-esque belt, this look felt extremely tacky to me.

I’m sure all the fashion snobs' feelings of anger at Kim Kardashian attending the MET gala turned into gleams of happiness as she turned up wearing THIS.
 

 

The custom Riccardo Tisci dress was a head to toe floral nightmare with matching sandals and gloves to boot. I actually don’t think she looks that bad. This is just an obligatory worst dressed for you fashion lovers out there. Thank me later!

 

Kate Upton stated that she didn’t understand what punk was. She could have just Googled it or went on Wikipedia. Worst dressed for her lack of intelligence.

 

 

As the presenter of the event and an attendee of the fucking MET ball, you’d think Hilary Rhoda would make some sort of an effort. Although this look is not a ball gown, this is definitely bad enough to make this post. SO TRAG.

 

 

Going against the grain, Anna Wintour makes SO MAJ’s worst dressed list. Despite being the first lady of fashion and I’m sure a best dressed on many lists, I’m taking a stand and shoving Anna Wintour to the side. How anarchic of me. How punk.
