The annual Costume Institute Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City is one of fashion's most anticipated nights of the year. Hosted by the denizens of Vogue magazine, the Met ball is always a sartorial feast of mostly inspired regalia. This year’s event was co-chaired by Vogue editor Anna Wintour, Moda Operandi creative director Lauren Santo Domingo, Rooney Mara and Givenchy designer Riccardo Tisci. Featuring so many superstars from Nina Dobrev to Kristen Stewart, the 2013 Met Gala celebrated the opening of the Punk: Chaos to Couture exhibition. On this ostentatious night of style, the celebrities entered at the base of the stairs and showed off their fit figures in mesmerizing ballgowns with dazzling accessories and stunning shoes.
