When interviewed, Marc Jacobs gave some pat answer about wearing this because he wanted to pay homage to the unexpected, or something. Can I call bullshit on that? Because a) Marc Jacobs in kooky nightshirt-looking dresses is not that unexpected anymore, even if they're see-through; so

You know how on SNL, when Amy Poehler was still there, they'd do "SERIOUSLY?!?!?! With Seth And Amy"?* I sometimes do a version of that in my head, called "SERIOUSLY?!?!?! With Seth And Amy and Jessica" and it basically consists of whatever I'

This looks better than it did when she was walking around on the live feed. I happen to think Debra looks better than she did in her Will & Grace days -- I think she's one of those people, kind of like Julianna Margulies, who was always pretty but

Looking at this just makes me itchy. Long sleeves stuffed into a leather dress, paired with hot lights and camera flashes, is what I think of as the birthplace of sweat stains. This is from the Marc Jacobs collection with all the giant furry hats and Wicked Witch of the

Do you think Solange snickered to herself when she saw how over-the-top Beyonce looked? And then silently thought, "less is more, sis. LESS IS SO MUCH MORE." Because hello, gorgeous. This is, like, perfect. Color: perfect. Fit: perfect. Clutch: perfect. Bracelet: perfect. Hair: perfect. Make-up:

I never noticed before how much Jessica Paré resembles Liv Tyler. In fact, I just mentally put her in That Thing You Do and it kinda worked. I did not mentally put her into The Incredible Hulk, because that seemed like a mean thing to do to an innocent bystander.

I'm not sure Kirsten Dunst has ever looked non-cracked out at the Met Ball. Remember her wacky flapper outfit? Or her bad pseudo-Mirren? Or Boots McWhat? Or, most recently, Dirty Dancing: Baja Fresh? So I was understandably torn when she walked the carpet in this: Part

When we wrote up this dress in our slideshow of the Marchesa collection that included it, I wrote simply, "Eh." I think that still pretty much covers it. Well, actually, it's almost overwhelmingly too positive. Because although this may look sparkly and fantastical in person, in

I loved this when I saw it on the live-feed last night, but now that I'm actually looking at it again, I am not so sure. Things we know: 1. Emma Stone is adorable, and we love her. 2. We want the best for her, and sometimes

The Vogue feed hit its stride after about half an hour or forty-five minutes, but for a while there, it was all me and Jessica screaming at it for catching sight of the bottom half of an interesting dress, then cutting away to an interview with some elderly benefactors,

View the gallery I am distraught that none of our photo services had a shot of the back of this that we could use, because it was AMAZBALLS (AmazMetBalls?). It was a Butt Bow so TREMENDOUS and MAJESTIC that someone should write a children's book about it (Maurice

I present to you Sarah Jessica Parker in Little House On Park Avenue. Although, maybe this was part of a cunning master plan. Maybe SJP and Valentino knew that the ladies' powder room at the Met would be papered thusly, and she could just stand there and blend against

Yeah, TOTALLY revisit your hair from There's Something About Mary. That's a GREAT IDEA. It's like the reality of what someone just did to her bangs for this evening has just sunk in. And reality, as they say, bites. It's worth nothing

Let's not pretend: I have serious reservations about the hair. It reminds me of Minnie Mouse. Actually, it reminds me MORE of that scene in Spaceballs where Daphne Zuniga is driving her space Mercedes away from her own wedding, and Robot Joan Rivers is trying to talk to

When Mary-Kate popped up on the live-feed of the red carpet yesterday, Heather turned to me and said, "Mary-Kate looks refried." I don't know if I can top that descriptor: Her hair looks crispy, and her dress looks like a shroud. Making her,
