Best dressed :: 2012 Met Gala Awards

High drama hair and make-up, along with colour blocking and lots of neon, marked the trend at last night's Met Gala Awards. 


There were a few misses of the evening, notably Leighton Meester (the hair and make up was all wrong) and Dakota Fanning (her dress was not flattering at all); but overall I was thoroughly impressed by the risks that people took, especially Christina Ricci, who wore Thakoon - what an incredible dress!


I've narrowed down to my top 10 favourite looks of the evening...



{Carey Mulligan in Prada}


{Camilla Belle in Ralph Lauren}


{Mary-Kate Olsen in The Row}


{Hanneli in Calvin Klein}


{Rihanna in Tom Ford}


{Solange Knowles in Rachel Roy}


{Kate Boswoth in Prada}


{Ivanka Trump in Peter Pilotto}


{Christina Ricci in Thakoon}


{Gisele Bundchen in Givenchy}


{Chloe Sevigny in Miu Miu}


Who wore your favourite look of the night?
