As if the amfAR Gala’s red carpet wasn’t enough to push you into fashion sensory overload, we now have the night’s main event–the all-gold fashion show curated by Carine Roitfeld–to drool over.
The theme of last night’s event was punk–though you wouldn’t necessarily know it from the red carpet. Though some of the guests did step up the ‘tude a notch–some with spikes, others with hair dye–the majority kept it pretty, well, pretty. Let’s take a look at who was brave enough to go punk, and who Read more →
It’s here! It’s here! The Met Ball red carpet is finally underway. So the fashion is great–though not exactly punk. According to Anna Wintour, though, her florals are punk, in a way: Andrew Bolton, the currator of the exhibit told her that pink was the real color of punk. Hence the color scheme. So there.

Galliano’s not going. See who is.
The Met Ball is like the Oscars for the fashion industry: all the best people in all the best dresses.
This year’s theme, punk, presents an interesting conundrum: will people go all out, liberty spikes and Givenchy nose rings and all, or just throw some studs on a Chanel suit and call it pseudo-punk?
We’re hoping for the former, and so in the spirit of going the distance, we’ve picked out our favorite punk fashions and paired them with Met Ball regulars like Anna Wintour and Julianne Moore and some fantasy guests (Bjork, anyone?).
Click through to see the looks we want to see on the red carpet, and let us know what you’re hoping for in the comments.

Our Fashionista March Madness competition is heating up! Yesterday, Marc Jacobs and Prada triumphed in their respective cities.
Today, Christopher Kane takes on mega-power Burberry in London and Celine takes on Raf Simons’s winning streak at Dior to finish of the Elite Eight.
Out of all the cities in our March Madness Bracket, the nominations for London were the most erratic. Unlike cities New York or Milan, where clear front-runners emerged, the race for London was tight–which lead to some disappointing losses, including fan-favorite Simone Rocha.
The players who were lucky enough to make the tourney–Christopher Kane, Preen, Burberry, and Jonathan Saunders–will now duke it out to the next round.
We here at Fashionista aren’t all that into basketball–but we are really into fashion.
The first official day of “spring” is tomorrow. Apparently. (With another snow day yesterday we’re starting to doubt spring will ever come.)
