Oooh, the 2009 Met Gala, themed, "Model as Muse: Embodying Fashion," was full of interesting and lovely outfits. I expected ensembles to be much more risque, but the styling was generally on the safe side.

Some favorites:

Rihanna in Dolce&Gabbana:



Blake Lively in Versace, looking tall, thin, tan, toned. I love how the teal of the dress brings out her eyes and her features:


More after jump...


The lovely Victoria Beckham in Marc by Marc Jacobs:


Ashley Olsen, in the Row(her own line):


Heidi Klum, such an icon and flawless beauty! She has such a great personality, and her eccentricities never takes away from her grace!
