Did you really think we were only going to do one post devoted to last night’s Met fashions/ Chinese firework factory explosion? Ha! How could we whittle down so many fabulous creations to just 10? So, without much further ado let us bring you Dakota Johnson, in her mini Chanel mirror ball creation and a subtle nod to this year’s ‘China: Through the Looking Glass’ theme via the medium of tiny Chinese doll bag, and Miley Cirus with Zoe Kravitz, both in Alexander Wang who are bringing their best sexy dominatrix game to those red carpet steps. Lorde, in her Calvin Klein Collection sequins and flowing hair seems to me to be channeling mythical sea creature while Amal Clooney in Maison Martin Margiela Couture has gone full out red dragon. Which takes us rather nicely on to Joan Smalls who in her one shouldered, sheer and embroidered purple Roberto Cavalli by Peter Dundas gown, has gone full out sexy mother of dragons. Naomi Campbell is the gift that gives on giving. And the gift that she gives? Naomi. Naomi as everyones favourite Chinese takeaway, crispy duck. Not because she resembles a crispy duck in anyway, just that she’s wearing feathers. Courtesy of Burberry Prorsum. Maggie Gyllenhaal is both elegant and playful in a colourful Roland Mouret number while Chloe Sevigny is like Kim Cattrall in Mannequin, but rather than a mannequin come to life she is a Ming Vase come to life in her embroidered J.W.Anderson. Have you ever wondered what a dress made from 2,000 recycled bottles looks like? Well, look no further than Livia Firth in red Antonio Berardi. You would never have guessed that dress was made from plastic. And Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, as usual steal the show in their best, and signature Miss Haversham. Minus the cobwebs of course.
