Fashion at the Met Costume Institute Gala

Stars of film, fashion, television and music were at The Metropolitan Museum of Art for the Costume Institute Gala last night which honoured the late, great, Alexander McQueen.

Naomi Campbell (who's made it onto a few worst dressed lists) said of him: ‘He was a very sensitive, very instinctive and intuitive person - private and a very affectionate and lovely man. He was a monstrous talent.’

Celebrity attendees included SJP, Gisele, Rihanna, Jessica Alba and Beyonce and Jay-Z who were booed by photographers for failing to stop for extra pictures!

We’re more interested in who did stop!

Jennifer Lopez in Gucci. The colour looks gorgeous on her. The shoulders take the floral trend to a new level!

Rihanna in Stella McCartney. As usual she shows a lot without showing a lot. Not sure about The Little Mermaid inspired hair.

Beyonce is curvy perfection in Emilio Pucci. It looks really tight - how did she walk? Or breathe? The things we do for fashion! Feeling Jay's lo 'fro.

Tamara Mellon, Thandie Newton (who never looks bad) in Stella McCartney with Freida Pinto in Chanel.

Kerry Washington in Escada. Gorgeous dress and we love the 80's inspired hair.

Solange in Dries Van Noten. Umm...we like her hair. That's it.

A very serious Ciara in Prabal Gurung. Beautiful, beautiful dress.

Alicia Keys in Givenchy. Too much brown drowns her and the jacket brings the dress down.

Eva Mendes smoulders in Stella McCartney. This lady certainly knows how to work a red carpet.

Rashida Jones underwhelms in Stella McCartney. It's not a bad dress, it just doesn't have much wow for an occasion as wow worthy as this.

Zoe Saldana in Calvin Klein. Simple and elegant and love the easy waves in her hair.

Janelle Monae in The House of Chanel. We're getting a bit bored of this look now.

Iman in Stella McCartney. She looks stunning but we don't recommend matching your outfit with your hair.

Jennifer Hudson in Vera Wang with Vera Wang. It's a little bridesmaid'y.

John Legend and Christine Teigen. A little too 'showgirl' for us but fitting for an event like this we suppose.

Nicole Ritchie in Jason Wu. Very 'old Hollywood'.

Joan Smalls in Tom Ford looks supermodel perfect.

Serena Williams in Oscar de la Renta. Could have worked sans the hat.

Fashion at the 2011 Grammy Awards

The Grammys were held in Los Angeles last night and once again, the fashion did not disappoint.

Sticking with the music for a bit, some of the winners were:

Best Contemporary R&B Album – ‘Raymond V Raymond’, Usher
Best Rap Album – ‘Recovery’, Eminem,
Best R&B Album - 'Wake Up!', John Legend and the Roots
Best Rap Song - 'Empire State of Mind,' Jay-Z and Alicia Keys
Best R&B Song - 'Shine,' John Legend and the Roots
Best Dance Song - 'Only Girl (In The World)', Rihanna
Best New Artist - Esperanza Spalding

Needless to say, Lady Gaga stole the show by arriving in a giant egg!

Moving on, Rihanna must have friends in high places as she arrived in a John Paul Gaultier gown that was only on the catwalks of Paris last month! Nice. We also much prefer her new sleek hairstyle over the Sideshow Bob creation she had been sporting.

Jean Paul Gaultier Spring 11 Couture Show

For her on stage performance with Eminem, she wore a Christian Dior dress from his Autumn/Winter 2010 collection.

Jennifer Lopez certainly made an entrance in an itsy bitsy Emilio Pucci minidress and Christian Louboutin studded heels.

The ever slimmer Jennifer Hudson in a Versace gown.

Nicki Minaj in a leopard print Givenchy Couture full catsuit and ‘how did it stay up all night?’ hairpiece.

Kim Kardashion (with gravity defying boobs) in a Kaufman Franco gown and nude Christian Louboutin courts.

Naya Rivera (from Glee) in a short at the front, long at the back gown.

Ciara in a long but actually not-much-material Emilio Pucci 2011 Spring Collection dress.

Glee’s Jenna Ushkowitz in a classic nude strapless dress with black overlay.

Janelle Monae in her signature angdrogynous style with Dolce & Gabbana black satin trousers, sequin blazer and white shirt.

Amber Riley in an unusual embellished strapless gown, with odd gold shoulder detailing.

Monica in an overpowering formal black gown.

Esperanza Spalding rocking a natural 'fro.













And last but not least, cheer up Faith!

Fashion at the 2011 Golden Globes

The 2011 Golden Globe Awards were held in LA last night to recognise achievements in film and TV, and Hollywood was out in its sartorial finest.



Halle Berry










Make up perfection!











Got a big event coming up? Then take inspiration (and in some cases don’t) from what the ladies had to offer. Considering most, if not all, of them had a team of stylists, hairdressers, make up artists etc in their arsenal, we think some could have done better!

Glee actress Amber Riley in Oliver Tolentino. The make up is a bit matchy-matchy but she looks so cute and happy we're letting it go.

Actress Gabourey Sidibe. Nice dress but the make up is unforgiveable. It isn't 1967, make up exists in various shades of brown - couldn't someone at MAC have hooked her up? Words need to be had with her stylist.

Halle Berry in Nina Ricci. Stunning as usual.

Glee actress Jenna Ushkowitz in Rebecca Taylor.

Jennifer Lopez in Zuhair Murad and over $5 million worth of jewellery!

TV presenter Shaun Robinson.

Robert De Niro and wife Grace Hightower. She looks stunning.

The lovely Blair Underwood.
