It was quite a dazzling array of celebrity faces on the red carpet for the 2009 MET Costume Institute Gala in New York City. Kanye West and his fellow fashion-loving girlfriend Amber Rose stepped out in traditionally elegant outfits. Amber chose a bright red strapless dress that hugged her curves, while Kanye kept it simple in his black tux.
Actress Lake Bell also did it up in a tux, but it's our humble opinion that Rihanna wore it better. Maybe if Lake had lost the hat.
Holy crap, Ed Westwick got himself some bronzer and hair gel! The Gossip Boy was looking good! Very sleek with his sexy tiger eyes. His sexy photoshoot partner Helena Christensen went for a less traditional look. I'm going to call it "Boozy Ballerina," but since she's a model, she works it better than a mere mortal would.
