Costume Institute Gala Highlights

There was a lot of sartorial splendor to be found at last night’s Costume Institute gala, most of it the kind of stuff only seen at the Oscars, society weddings, and other fantastical events. (Fitting reference eh? The A-list festivities were in honor of the new Costume Institute exhibition: Superheroes: Fiction & Fantasy, but more on that later.)  Highlights of the evening–including Hilary Duff posing as Fergie’s arm-candy and Victoria Beckham looking skinnier, scowl-ier, and more fabulous than ever–can be found on the Glam mothership but I thought I’d take a moment to point out this lovely little style snapshot:
