Vintage at the Met Gala 2013

The Met Gala is my favorite red carpet of the year, even more so than the Oscars. It the time when celebrities and fashion folk alike can really embrace fashion and show off their personal style. Here are a few vintage looks that really put the stamp of authenticity on this year's "PUNK: Chaos to Couture" theme.


The Olsen twins never fail to add vintage flair to every event. Personally, I love their style. They can do no wrong in my book. They rather look interesting than pretty, in a culture where they could easily rely on being skinny, rich and blonde. I respect that.  Right, Ashley in a 1972 Christian Dior look. Left, Mary Kate in a vintage Chanel dress and vintage Balmain robe. I love that damn robe.


Here's Lily Collins wearing a vintage Moschino jacket over a Moschino dress. Moschino is a perfect designer if "punk"is what your going for. 

  
   
This particular look is way too busy for me, but I guess she has the whole Chaos to Couture theme covered. 

                                          
Last but not least, Anne Hathaway in one of my favorite looks of the night. Vintage Valentino. This look embodies edgy elegance which is exactly what the Met Gala is supposed to be about. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
