The 2009 Metropolitan Museum Costume Institute Gala honoring "The Model as Muse: Embodying Fashion" began yesterday.
The Costume Institute of The Metropolitan Museum of Art organize the spring 2009 exhibition with the goal of exploring "the reciprocal relationship between high fashion and evolving ideals of beauty, focusing on iconic fashion models in the latter half of the 20th century and their roles in projecting, and sometimes inspiring, the fashion of their respective eras."
Expecting glamour and glitz on the red carpet, let's see who were the supermodel muses who attended the event and what fashion did they inspire:
Kate Moss, honorary co-chair of the gala, in her Marc Jacobs asymmetrical minidress - check! (Oh, and there's the turban she co-designed with Stephen Jones.)
Newly-wed Gisele Bündchen in sparkling Versace and unkempt sexy do - check!
Preggy Heidi Klum in a J. Mendel ballgown dramatic navy taffeta and sheer gown - check!
Agyness Deyn in Marilyn Monroe-hairstyle and classic make-up in a grey, crushed silk Burberry maxi - check!
Cindy Crawford in a thigh-baring, metallic blue Versace gown - check!
Tyra Banks in a Badgley Mischka black beaded strapless gown - check!
Iman in a one-shouldered champagne colored gown - check!
Claudia Schiffer in an intricate black cut-out gown - check!
Yep. Naomi Campbell, Linda Evangelista, Christy Turlington, Stephanie Seymour - they did not attend the event so, X!
The 2009 Metropolitan Museum Costume Institute Gala is on view at the Metropolitan from May 6 through August 9, 2009.
