Met Gala 2014 - My Top 10 Looks

In case you hadn't already noticed (from the hundreds of celebrity selfies on Instagram), it was the annual Met Gala last night - a huge highlight in the fashion world. The Met Gala is a fundraising event for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute, and is also the opening for the fashion exhibit that is held there. It's also another excuse for every actor, singer and model to dress up and let us drool over their outfits. This year the theme was 'White Tie and Decorations', which seemed to lead to many wearing old-school glamour styles. After scrolling through picture after picture, I finally settled on my top 10 looks:


10. Suki Waterhouse  (Burberry)


This isn't a look I would wear myself, but the pale pink and the ruffled layers make it a statement dress and with her hair up in a messy bun and limited jewellery, the look was balanced out perfectly.


9. Hailee Steinfeld (Prabal Gurung)


17 year old Hailee certainly looks beyond her years here and although I don't think this dress is everyone's cup of tea, I think the simple monochrome with the large tent bottom makes it very sophisticated and she looks incredible.


8. Selena Gomez (Diane von Furstenberg)


This look screams Hollywood glamour, with the fishtail dress and drop earrings and the purple/maroon dress goes perfectly with Selena's dark hair and skin tone, making her look gorgeous.


7. Diane Kruger (Hugo Boss)


Diana Kruger is queen of simplicity, often wearing dresses with little detail, and always manages to pull it off. The box clutch matches perfectly, and having her hair in such a clean middle parting shows off her face and lets the outfit speak for itself.


6. Taylor Swift (Oscar de la Renta)


This cute pink dress, with the low-cut back and bow detailing at the back is just amazing and such a Taylor outfit. She loves her cute girly bits and certainly didn't fail with this outfit!


5. Kate Bosworth (Stella McCartney)


Similar to Diana Kruger, Kate also looks incredible with a flat hair do and a simple dress. She is just beautiful and can basically wear anything. (Although she will always be 'the surfer girl' from Blue Crush to me!)


4. Lily Donaldson (Burberry)


I picked this outfit purely because of the back - IT'S AMAZING. Bows are clearly a big thing at the moment! I want a dress just like this.


3. Blake Lively (Gucci)


Obviously I had to include the picture with Ryan Reynolds in it too, because they are the best couple ever. Blake's loose curls and super hot (but still pretty) dress make her the perfect woman as usual. 


2. Emma Stone (Thakoon)


This is quite a casual look with the side plait and open midriff, but it suits Emma just perfectly. I love the two different shades of pink and they really compliment her red hair.


1. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley (Balmain)


This is without a doubt my favourite look of the whole evening. It's a completely different style to any of the outfits seen throughout the night. It doesn't really go with the theme, which is slightly disappointing, but the dress totally makes up for that. The leopard print pleats and gladiator-style heels make it edgy and current. Her hairstyle is simple, elegant and how I wish my hair could look all the time!


I hope you all enjoyed my take on the outfits for this year! What were your favourite looks at the Gala?


Love from Roxy x
