Well. Thankfully Emma Roberts -- or one of her associates -- must check her social media a lot, because she posted this Instagram of herself getting prepped for the Met Gala with ACTUAL CHOPSTICKS IN HER HAIR WHAAAAAT: Fortunately, the freakout was immediate enough that by the time she arrived at the

On a night where subtlety did not always reign among those who tackled elements of the theme, I think this is quite lovely. I am only just noticing how many people chose full topknots or high buns to complement their looks, which I hope was just a coincidence and not

I suspect the very intricate pleating here is meant to make Solange -- Our Lady of Grand and Hopefully Intentional Hilarity -- look as if she is a walking hand fan. But the pattern makes it look like she is wearing the poster for her Science Fair project, "Space: The Final

View the gallery Jennifer co-chaired this gala, which was an admittedly strange choice to me -- not least because I feel like someone who basically signed her youth away to one designer is an unusual pick to head up a gala devoted to a wide swath of fashion. Insert the

People knock Taylor Swift for still acting surprised when she cleans up at these things, and this may not change that, given that she's receiving a milestone awards and therefore totally knew it was coming. Then again, she her mother presented it to her, which is sniffly because
