No question about it, the Fannings love them some Rodarte. The fashionable sisters have long been fans of the Mulleavy sisters’ creations, and at last week’s Met Gala, both Dakota and Elle wore Rodarte.
Still, when the Daily Mail reported yesterday that Elle, 15, and Dakota, 19, were designing for Rodarte we raised a collective eyebrow.
From Carey Mulligan’s elegant Balenciaga to the Fannings’ edgy Rodarte to Ashley Olsen’s vintage Dior that appeared to levitate, click through for what we thought were the 20 best looks of the night, regardless of its theme.
Run-of-the-mill red carpets usually feature a lot of smoky eyes, nude lips, and artfully highlighted brow bones. But throw a punk theme in there, and suddenly you have January Jones looking like she escaped from a Gareth Pugh runway.
Yes, there were plenty of safe, gorgeous makeup looks at the Met Gala last night, but a handful of celebs really had fun with their eye makeup, either breaking out the color or the arty graphic eyeliner.
It’s here! It’s here! The Met Ball red carpet is finally underway. So the fashion is great–though not exactly punk.

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?).

As spring began to bloom, this week’s best dressed ladies (and one gentleman) showed a little skin while keeping things tasteful. Jennifer Lawrence showed of a new ‘do and her shoulders in David Koma; Elle Fanning went high-drama in Lanvin; and Kiernan Shipka looked adorable yet grown up in Dolce.

Today is Marc Jacobs’s 50th birthday, which is quite the milestone.
It wasn’t too hard to come up with 50 things we like about Marc Jacobs to commemorate his big day.
Elle Fanning covers New York Magazine‘s spring fashion issue looking as sweet as a cupcake. Literally. Her hair is adorned with cake icing flowers, and the sugary theme continues in her super cute spring fashion spread. (Think eyelid cupcake sprinkles.) We love it.
Fanning also proves that she’s still one of the coolest teenagers on the planet, who, at the tender age of 14, has a very developed sense of what she does and doesn’t like fashion-wise.
In McQueen and Peter Som, respectively, Rooney and Kate Mara basically proved that great style is genetic.
In her Glamour cover story, Dakota Fanning addresses that whole controversy around her banned-in-the-UK Marc Jacobs fragrance campaign.
