Hollywood A-Listers came out in big numbers last night (07 May), all in the name of fashion, to celebrate the 2012 Costume Institute Gala (Met Ball). Held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, the event was co-chaired by British actress Carey Mulligan, designer Miuccia Prada, and US Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour. This year’s event honoured Prada and late Italian designer Elsa Schiaparelli.
Checkout all the fashion below:

The devil really does wear Prada. Anna Wintour ditched Chanel for this year’s event, and went for a white Prada gown, with a gold lobster applique — an homage to Schiaparelli perhaps.

Actress Emily Blunt strikes a tall pose on the cover of the May issue of UK ELLE magazine.
Photographed by Thomas Schenk, while sporting a classy chignon, the 29-year-old dons a black Fendi gown on the minimalist newsstand cover and rocks a Valentino dress on the black and white subscriber’s cover.
‘The Five-Year Engagement’ star recalls to the magazine the embarrassing moment when she met Barack Obama.
“I was so starstruck… we were at the White House having cocktails and this woman said, ‘Would you like to meet President Obama?’ They introduced me and then he turned to me and went, ‘Oh. Oh. You are a wonderful actress’. And I laughed, screechingly and hysterically, I couldn’t stop. They had to usher me away. I fell apart. I don’t know what happened to me. He looked nine-feet tall. I think my eyes
rolled back in my head. I gave Michelle a hug and she had skin like silk”, Emily explains to ELLE.
Checkout Emily in designs by Dior, Balmain, Alexander McQueen, Hakaan, Vionnet and Mary Katrantzou in her editorial below:

As award season sadly drew to an end, all roads led to the Kodak Theatre in California for the 84th Annual Academy Awards on Sunday (26 February). Legendary actress Meryl Streep finally broke her 30-year curse on the night, by winning her 3rd Oscar for her portrayal of Margaret Thatcher in ‘The Iron Lady‘. But it was silent film ‘The Artist‘ which made history by becoming only the first silent film to win ‘Best Picture’, since the ‘Wings’ did so during the awards’ inception 83 years ago. ‘The Artist’ also won Michel Hazanavicius ‘Best Director’ and French heartthrob Jean Dujardin ‘Best Actor.
In true Oscar style, the red carpet did not disappoint, many stars dared to take risks. Head below to checkout if those risks worked in their favour or against:
Glenn Close showed some cleavege in a Zac Posen strapless gown, but kept it age appropriate with a matching jacket.
Meryl Streep knew way before everyone that she was going to strike gold on the night, thus she opted for a gold Lanvin dress.
BEST-DRESSED: Pixie-haired Michelle Williams gave us the most fashion forward look in her retro-meet-modern burnt orange Louis Vuitton gown, with a peplum skirt.
WORST-DRESSED: Penelope Cruz got it all wrong in her Armani off-the-shoulder frock. Too matronly.
Rocking her natural her, Viola Davis added a pop of colour on the red carpet in an emerald green Vera Wang corset gown.

Megan talks to the magazine about falling in love with husband Brain Austin Green, who she met when she was 18 and he was 30.
“I was too young to remember Beverly Hills, so I didn’t know who he was. But I knew I was instantly in love”, Megan shares with Miami.

The 65th annual British Academy Film Awards (BAFTAs) — the British equivalent of the Oscars — took place tonight (12 February) at the Royal Opera House in the UK. ‘Beginners‘ actor Christopher Plummer, ‘The Help‘ actress Octavia Spencer as well as silent film ‘The Artist‘ continued on their winning streak this award season, in their respective categories. Jean Dujardin once again upset George Clooney by clinching ‘Best Actor’, with Meryl Streep denying Viola Davis a ‘Best Actress’ win.
Head below to checkout all the red carpet action, where black was clearly the colour of the night.
Viola Davis went for a splash of colour in Valentino.
BEST-DRESSED: Pixie-haired Tilda Swinton looked effortlessly chic as usual, in a minimalist Celine capsleeve gown.

The 18th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards were held last night (29 January) at the Shrine Exposition Center in Los Angeles. While ‘The Help‘ was the big winner of the night, it was French actor Jean Dujardin who stole the show, snatching ‘Best Actor’ right under Hollywood heartthrob George Clooney‘s nose and for the first time, this award season, creating a competitive Oscar race in the category. Clooney’s good friend Viola Davis took home ‘Best Actress’, and having won under the same category a few week ago at the Critics Choice Awards, the 46-year-old becomes the clear front-runner for the Oscar race in the category. Davis’ biggest threat comes from two of The Weinstein Company’s lovely ladies, Meryl Streep and Michelle Williams, who both won a Golden Globe two weeks ago for ‘Best Actress Drama’ and ‘Best Actress Comedy/Musical’, respectively.
Head below for all the red carpet action, where no one really stunned. They all played it safe.
BEST-DRESSED: Viola Davis showed off her gorgeous skin in this Marchesa strapless gown, with embroidered antique gold detail.
BEST-DRESSED: ‘My Week With Marilyn‘ beauty Michelle Williams matched the red carpet in a Valentino asymmetrical gown, with a gathered waist and lace detail.
With her blonde locks gathered into an updo, Amber Heard looked elegant in a black cut-out Zac Posen gown.
BEST-DRESSED: Rocking a chic pageboy bob, ‘Bridesmaids‘ star Rose Byrne was the only one really bold on the red carpet in this Elie Saab embroidered jumpsuit.

The 17th Annual Critics Choice Awards were held last night (12 January). If they are anything to go by, it seems the odds in leading to the 2012 Oscars are in favour of ‘The Help‘ stars Viola Davis and Octavia Spencer, who both took home ‘Best Actress’ and ‘Best Supporting Actress’ respectively. As it was expected ‘The Descendants‘ actor George Clooney scoped ‘Best Actor’. Michel Hazanavicius’s ‘The Artist’ took ‘Best Picture’, winning him ‘Best Director’ in the process.
Elsewhere on the grey carpet, everyone went all out, giving us the first really exciting ‘red carpet’ event of the year. While the night was dominated by a lot of black, some stars still opted for a splash of beautiful colour. Head below for all the fashion.
Diane Kruger stole the night in this Prada yellow and light blue chiffon halter neck gown.

In her first post-Ashton Kutcher split magazine appearance, actress Demi Moore covers the February issue of US Harper’s Bazaar.
The raven-haired beauty strikes a sexy pose for the lens of Cedric Buchet in a black Gucci swimsuit, and a matching caftan.
Promoting her upcoming new talk show ‘The Conversation’, which she will co-produce with close friend Amanda de Cadenet, the two lovely ladies sit down for a candid conversation appearing in the magazine — discussing love, body image and guilty pleasures.
In their heart-to-heart talk, 49-year-old Demi reveals what scares her the most in life.
“I used to think that what scared me was the idea of being abandoned until someone said to me, ‘Only children can be abandoned. Adults can’t be abandoned because we have a choice. Children don’t have a choice.’ So I started to rethink. ‘Okay, it’s not that. What’s the underlying thread that really scares me?’ I think what scares me is not having the courage to reach my full potential”, Demi shares with Bazaar.
Head below for Demi and Amanda’s editorial. The two ladies rock designs by Balmain, Valentino, Dolce & Gabbana, Tom Ford, Calvin Klein and Dior.
