Met Costume Institute Gala Photos - Richard Snark

Richard, the intrepid reporter who assisted on the Katy Perry review is back. This time he brings his snark front and center in these Met Costume Institute photos.


George and Julia were co-chairs for the event.

Anna Wintour – the arbiter of style (OY!)

Anna’s daughter Bee – Isn’t the mother supposed to be tastefully dressed and the daughter supposed to be trying too hard and wearing something inappropriate.

Tom & Gisele – neither looking very good

Naomi Watts got into the spirit of the event and looks damn fine.



I think Diane Kruger & Joshua Jackson look great.



Zac Posen went for the comic book effect (note the stripper heels on Kate Mara).



Not the best shot of Lauren Hutton but in any case, she is still incredible.



Thandie Newton didn’t have time to put on her dress and showed up in her robe and foundation garments (by Chanel).



I was glad to see that Lynda Carter was invited.



Becks & Posh (their on/off BFF Tom & Kate were also there as were Mark and Jennifer but I will save your retinas and not include those photos).



This is just wrong: Tilda Swinton and Justin Bond. How frumpy can you get?



Janet looks great.



Ashley looks great. Mary Kate could use a comb and some product but on the whole looks pretty good.



Are Eli Manning and Abby McGrew going to the prom?

This look is over.



Andre Benjamin shows him how it should be done.
