The Met Gala 2015: China Through The Looking Glass

It was a night dedicated to the beauty of the Metropolitan

Museum of Art's new exhibition located on the Upper East

Side of New York City.  Celebrities and supporters of the

museum alike, attended the event in pure splendor and

glamour ensuring to dress in homage of the theme.  I am

currently taking an Art History class, and this exhibit has

been the prime topic within our classroom.  I look forward

to learning more about this exhibit, and the various artists

who continue to influence our society through innovation and

expression.

My personal fashions of the night in no particular order:

Rihanna wore Chinese couturier Guo Pei and looked wonderful

in a silk detailed canary yellow robe.  It was my favorite because

of the grandeur and craftsmanship.

What I truly enjoyed about Janelle Monae's style is that it was

her personal style infused with the influence of the art of the night.  
It was beautiful and fun and all her own personal take of this style!

I really enjoyed Vanessa Hudgens dress mostly because it

was a very modern twist of the Audrey Hepurn-esque A line

cocktail dress.  It was artistic and playful yet demure.  I found

it to be a very unique combination along with the color.  She

looked very happy and beautiful!

I absolutely loved Emily Ratajkowski dress, and quite frankly it would be a dress

that I would wear now.  The dress she is wearing is by Bespoke Topshop and

she looked superb in this dress.  

Gong Li looked serene and magnificent in a beautiful maroon velvet and lace gown,
she graced the carpet wonderfully and it was magnificent to behold!

Wendi Murdoch wearing a lovely satin indigo blue gown with gold sequin details
that complimented the red carpet wonderfully.  Wendi Murdoch looked chic
and dazzling.

My personal favorite of the night was Fan Bingbing.  The detailing, the craftsmanship, and
the color of this outfit was precisely perfect and marvelous!  

It is a spectacular dress to behold indeed!

Liu Wen looks elegant and refined in a beautiful laced structured gown.  I love the detailing
and how it stands out in an excellent manner.

Alexa Chung with Erdem Moralioglu designer of this marvelous detailed A-line gown!
I particularly enjoyed the type of purple she wore and
 hope to see this color more often.  The color contrasts as
well complimented each other and it was very suitable for this lovely attire.

Emily Blunt looked wonderful in this mixed pattern gown, once again I truly enjoy
this particular color of purple and I appreciated the beading of the designs on the gown.

For the men I truly enjoyed Justin Beiber's suite coat for this event which was designed by Balmain. I thought was very creative and unique for men's style.

Ni Ni looked whimsical and brilliant in a yellow chiffon and silk gown,

Kerry Washington looked tres chic as always in a beautiful satin pale pink detailed gown.

Cindy Chao with Gemma Ward looked incredible in this black and white floral
 print structured gown.  Gemma Ward (one of my favorite models)
 looked stunning in a shimmery gown as well!

Zhang Ziyi and Carolina Herrera looked lovely and beautiful
 in their printed satin gowns!

Love Tommy and Dee Hilfiger!

I was excited to see Zhu Zhu on the red carpet, especially to see her gown and the accessories
that pair well with her gown in classic glamour!

Red is my favorite color and Shupei Qin wore it beautifully!

Gao Yang Yang wore this beautiful satin pale blue gown perfectly!

Carina Lau looks elegant and wonderful in this two toned black and white gown.
I love the beading at the end of her train!

It was definitely a beautiful and inspiring night!

PARKCHOONMOO Fall/Winter 2012 Collection

Born in Kimje, South Korea, Choonmoo Park

is a woman who knows and understands the style mixed

with contemporary art undeniably.  Designs filled with intricate 

detailing and mesmerizing fabrics, this collection for Fall 2012 is

no surprise of its beauty.  

The collection is filled with avant garde supremacy with colors

such as winter white (For those wondering it is not white, but 

a slightly darker or creamier version of white), taupe, and onyx

black.  Although the colors are very minimal, do not be fooled 

to think that it is just that, quite the opposite when you witness

the movement of each piece and notice the different textured 

fabrics.  To pair furs with silks, or satin with chiffons, the eyes

always tend to be drawn to each dramatic appearance

Choonmoo Park's designs create.
