Top 10 Looks from the 2015 Met Gala appeared first on OLENA.
The Metropolitan Museum’s Costume Institute Gala took place Monday night in New York and celebrities showed up in some spectacular looks in outfits that referenced the theme of the exhibition “China: Through the Looking Glass” in both subtle and attention-getting ways.
Beyonce
Beyoncé looked daringly regal in a sheer bejeweled Givenchy couture gown.
Donatella Versace and Jennifer Lopez
Jennifer Lopez also worked the sheer, barely-there trend, with a transparent gown with a tulle train by Atelier Versace, overlaid with a red dragon motif embellishment to evoke the China theme.
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West
Editor’s note: my least favorite celebrities of all time, but the dress is lovely: pairing transparent fabrics with feathers is never a miss.
Kim Kardashian attended with Kanye West. The reality star also put her assets on display in a lacy white Roberto Cavalli gown featuring beading and feathers.
Miley Cyrus and Zoe Kravitz
Miley Cyrus and Zoe Kravitz went for a bare aesthetic as well, but with a bit of an edge, both dressed in Alexander Wang.
Alexander Wang and Lady Gaga
Lady Gaga showed up with Alexander Wang in a one-off piece by Balenciaga, where Wang is creative director.
Editor’s note: OMG, she is unrecognizable!
Rihanna
Rihanna stood out on the red carpet in a sweeping fur-trimmed broacade ensemble by Chinese designer Guo Pei.
Georgia May Jagger
Georgia May Jagger went for a chinoiserie look in purple Gucci.

Editor’s note: adore Katy Perry’s haircut.
