Style Best Met: Michelle Williams Laura and I, who happily delight in Kristen Bell’s failures together, are fighting over this. Not because we disagree. But we because we agree. And we both want. It’s mine, she said. And I told her to step off. Is it me and Laura against the world? You By Lainey • May 03, 2011 08:18 am
Style Met GOOP replay Gwyneth Paltrow was among the many who wore no-colour last night at the Met Ball. While her Stella McCartney was an improvement over the no-colour choices she showed off on Oscar night – click here for a refresher - it was, for me, meh at best. Not terribly inspiring, not terribly By Lainey • May 03, 2011 07:55 am
Style Met Spider Girls – Emma Stone & Kirsten Dunst Whoever makes the decisions up there, the governing power pulling the fate strings, she is a Bitch. She is a bitch who keeps giving us little gifts. It is during these times, these times of fashion and red carpets, that I know for sure we are not alone. How else By Lainey • May 03, 2011 07:19 am
Style Best Met Black: Leighton Meester Maybe I’m partial to this because it’s a dress I would totally buy for myself... if I could afford Louis Vuitton. Love it so much. SO MUCH. And on her it’s just so well done. The sleek ponytail, the subdued makeup, the earrings... It’s perfect. But. By Lainey • May 03, 2011 06:48 am
Style Best Met Colour: Jennifer Lopez I already know we’re going to fight about this. We might fight about this harder than anything else we fight about all day. Because I get it, you hate the f-ckin’ floral shrug. You’re offended by the floral shrug. It’s not my favourite, no, I’m not By Lainey • May 03, 2011 06:16 am
Style Best Met Sateen: Freida Pinto You know sateen can be trouble as a rule. At etalk our producers have a no sateen policy when it comes to live events. Especially Michelle. You’ve already heard me too many times complaining about imaginary lumps and bumps. Even here, on Freida Pinto, there are a few. Without By Lainey • May 03, 2011 06:03 am
Style Except for Daphne Guinness ... This is a continuation of the thought expressed in the SJP article. About no one really bringing it. But for Daphne Guinness. She’s 43. An artist, an heiress, once married to a Greek shipping tycoon, these are the people who exist on yachts and in castles, who can afford By Lainey • May 03, 2011 04:34 am
Style Met Sober: SJP I mean sober as in serious, but I can understand why you might think it’s the other way. Her husband however wasn’t ignoring her as her date last night. So there’s that. It was no surprise that Sarah Jessica Parker chose McQueen last night to honour the By Lainey • May 03, 2011 04:21 am
Style Met Try: Demi Moore The Royal Wedding was on Friday. And showing up in a fascinator like this to the Met Gala in New York three days later is kinda like saying, I really, really wanted to be invited but I wasn’t so I’m wearing what I would have worn there instead.

Maple Leaf Is this your Met Best? Diane Kruger&Joshua Jackson Have been hearing from many of you over email and Twitter this morning. Almost everyone is into Diane Kruger as styled by Jason Wu. No, it certainly doesn’t suck. But I can’t say it’s my best. Maybe it’s because Jason Wu, while popular and talented and By Lainey • May 03, 2011 03:28 am
Style Met Olsens: what did you expect? I don’t know why people bother tutting about what the Olsens wear, especially to events like these. At this point, does anyone really think that they’re hoping to make it onto People.com’s Best Dressed of the Night? Mary-Kate would probably prune herself to death if she By Lainey • May 03, 2011 03:19 am
Style Met Boring: Zoe Saldana It’s bright yellow and I’m calling it boring. Because it is. It’s strapless. It’s that trademark Calvin Klein seemingly super-industrial wrinkle resistant material. There’s a belt at the waist. With some flaps at that back. And... that’s it. But... This is Zoe Saldana. I By Lainey • May 03, 2011 02:48 am
Style Best Swift Styling: Taylor Swift This may be my favourite Taylor Swift of all time. The way she’s been styled, this might her best ever. And it goes back to what I said about Beyonce – taking her own steeze and twisting it out for the Met Gala on a night for McQueen. That would By Lainey • May 03, 2011 02:38 am
Style Met Fishtails: Beyonce & Christina Ricci Have a feeling we’ll be fighting about this one. Christina Ricci is in Zac Posen. It’s exquisite. I mean, from a design perspective, it’s all you want at the Met Gala. Drama, imagination, quality, craftsmanship... But I feel like it might be the right dress on the By Lainey • May 03, 2011 01:45 am
Bad Style 17-off at the Met: Dakota & Saoirse I suppose, if there’s anyone who could get away with the Valentino flower tulle explosion worn by Dakota Fanning at the Met Gala it was probably Dakota Fanning. She’s 17. Prom is still within the parametres of her actual experience. But f-ck is this thing ever ugly. And By Lainey • May 03, 2011 01:31 am
Style Best Met Photobomb: Gisele & Ginnifer Check out Gisele Bundchen’s face behind Ginnifer Goodwin last night. Amazing, right? Shall we Photo Assumption? Errrrm... who invited all these Bs? Is that the girl from Twilight with the really bad pixie wig? To be fair, Ginnifer Goodwin is a few steps ahead of Ashley Greene. And her By Lainey • May 03, 2011 01:09 am
