The Met Costume Institute Gala was held last night, and even for those who don't like the standard red carpet circus, this one is usually pretty interesting. For one, the event was hosted by Vogue editrix Anna Wintour and the most powerful woman in the world, Oprah Winfrey. Another female powerhouse, Lady Gaga, performed for the crowd inside... but sadly didn't walk the red carpet, letting Katy Perry don the most unusual outfit for the press outside (it lit up with LED lights). As for what happens behind the Met's closed doors during the annual event, Wintour says, "Oh, we're very, very well behaved." However, Oprah walked in proclaiming she was ready for a few shots of tequila!
The theme this year celebrated the American woman. Who do you think represented the best?
