Anne Hathaway was one of the most notable women at last year’s Met Gala – she went all out in a bad-ass Valentino and she bleached her hair a punked-out white-blonde, befitting the theme of last year’s gala. This year’s theme was more conservative, so Annie opted for Calvin Klein, and the CK designer Francisco Costa was her date. I’m SHOCKED that Adam Shulman didn’t come to the gala wearing skinny tuxedo pants. Anyway, Annie looks really pretty here. I’m ready for her to grow out her hair and the red dress is so clean and simple, it’s almost a snoozefest. But she looks nice. Classic.
Zooey Deschanel in Tommy Hilfiger. Zooey collaborated with Hilfiger on an inexpensive mass-market line which recently debuted, so it makes sense that she wore Hilfiger. But my God, this dress is beneath her. It looks like a cheap prom dress. WTF?
Chloe Sevigny in Kenzo. This might be the saddest look of all. That hair says, “I think I’m giving up.” The dress looks like vintage Escada, which is to say… dated and unflattering, and unworthy of Chloe.
Zoe Kravitz in custom Topshop. Apparently, Zoe wasn’t wearing underwear and the slit on the dress was too high and she was flashing her Kravitz beav to everyone at the Met Gala. Klassy! The dress looks like something Rihanna would wear (and has worn?), and Zoe as a blonde is… not the best.

Hats off to Anne Hathaway. Not everyone can make crop top look classy.
Zooey Deschanel’s dress looks like it could be used in a really low-budget school theater. Zoey looks really badass.
Anne looks amazing. But Anne looks good on the red carpet most of the time.
What’s going on with Zoe Kravitz? She used to be so pretty, she looks almost cracked out now.
chloe always looks so tired. and that hairdo gives her a really harsh-looking profile.
I saw that same hairdo on a girl in the beer and wine section of a Walmart near Myrtle Beach South Carolina a couple of weekends ago.
I like Anne’s dress the rest not so much.
why does everything look ugly? I’ve never seen so many ridiculous dresses at once before. It’s like everyone was competing for the worst look of the year last night. Lupita might have won, by the way.
Majority of the dresses were either sub-par or just plain fug. It wasn’t a good night for fashion imo.
Definitively not a good night for fashion
I just don’t get it. There’s a theme. How hard it is to dress for this years theme?
Last year I gave everyone a pass because ‘punk’ was a tough theme for fashion-but this year it’s just laziness.
Because most of these people either get the dress for free or loaned to them for publicity. Just because its free does not mean you have to say yes to the dress.
@Tiffany, in this case the option is say yes to the dress or not attend. The stars are guests of the designers. That’s why Zoey showed up in a Hilfiger dress, because she was Hilfiger’s guest.
Sigh! Just awful. 🙁
What is classic about the bare midriff? Was the bare midriff ever in style before or is it our generation’s contribution to fashion?
Nothing. It’s never classic or classy. Ugh.
I like Anne’s dress, think she looks good.
Zooey looks like she’s going to prom, but she always does.
Zoe looks really cheap, dress would be better for someone taller I think.
Anne looks nice but really boring. She wears this type of dress all of the time. Sorry but Chloe looks like a man especially in the side profile photo.
Hathaway looks good. The rest look dreadful.
I liked Anne’s in the first photo, but I thought it was a belt. Seeing that it’s a 2 piece, and seeing how unflattering the center slit is, I’ve changed my mind. She looks good though.
Everyone else’s dresses are terrible.
I’m not in love with any of this. The flash of pale belly, the crotch slit (the middle front slit is so tacky, far worse than Kravitz’s imo). Though her dress is bad too. Why does everyone look do terrible hair/styling wise? Zooey’s dress is a wrinkled mess.
Agree. The flash of fish belly isn’t doing anything for me, either. The rest is dreck.
Dreck makes me think of the flotsam on the bottom deck of a pirate ship. Perfect description.
Bland Fashions! I DO Like Zoe’s dress and Makeup!
celebitchy made me hate Anne…I can’t even look at her face now without being annoyed. She looks decent here.
Chloe looks exhausted and needs a week’s rest. Damn girl, it’s not like you’re working 9-5.
I semi like Zoey’s look but I don’t like the styling of her hair. the blond doesn’t look half bad on her and different shoes are needed.
Everything is horrid except Anne’s dress, and I really hate this new trend of showing a sliver of belly. I will say Anne’s hair and makeup was on point.
Having never left the house in my entire life without wearing underwear, I am still baffled as to why young women (Hathaway, Zoe Kravitz etc.) seem to think going ‘commando’ in a dress with a thigh-high split is a good idea. It IS just attention seeking, right?
Dammit Zoe, you’re better than this.
I think Anne looks great. Tasteful at least and there are so many there who look like trash compared to her. But she is tall and thin and clothes fit her.
Is it just me or Anne seemed to not want to be there? She always looks pretty smiling on the red carpet, but yesterday she seemed less.
BTW the hair and makeup were great. I’m not a fan of the dress, but at least it was one of the few good from last night.
Boring
the only nice thing is zooey’s shoulder birds. very john singer sargent.
center slit. midriff skin and red ress on red carpet? really, annE? and costa is there showing that off?
chole, smh. that hair. shoe could have been unique but spoilt it with that WTH hair and her ragged tired face.
Anne looked like a movie star, the other 2 like tv girls and Zoe just trashy.
Instead of Kravitz beav, I prefer Krav Cake.
Sorry, she makes red look like a “difficult colour”. (Ref Maggie Smith’s ad-lib in Gosford Park about green). The dress, the lips, the shoes and clutch… not feelin’ it.
Ok, I’m probably biased but I absolutely love Zoey’s make-up! I usually think that she’s the prettiest when she isn’t wearing any but the berry-colour looks really beautiful on her gorgeous face. And the neck-line is awesome too, although I agree with whoever said that the dress would have had more impact on someone taller.
Zooey’s dress could really work if she lost the sleeve detail and had a simple strap over the shoulders. The color is lovely, but the sleeves turn this into something too young or too casual. She just misses it by a mark. Cannot fault Anne here, she looks minimalist and sleek. Chloe is pretty bad. Again, I’m not liking the summer prints at this Gala at all, and this looks like a two-piece to boot, and then her Hair is horrid, simply horrid, what happened? She could have added a simple “fall” or hairpiece just for the evening. Oh, well. Zoe Kravitz looks a little less than classy here. I’m not sure its due to the dress, but more like budget hair and the tattoos don’t help.
