Florence Welch In Givenchy – 2013 Met Gala

Florence Welch wowed on the 2013 Met Gala red carpet at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.

The singer put a vampy-bohemian spin on her ode to punk with a full-on fringe gown from the Givenchy Fall 2012 Couture collection.

Since Riccardo Tisci is a co-chair of tonight’s gala, it’s only natural that Florence wore the designer—and that she looked quite remarkable in his dress.

She’s statuesque enough to pull off this dramatic, long-sleeve creation and its floor-sweeping tassels without being overwhelmed.

But, truth be told, it was really Florence’s fiery-red locks that sold me on this all-black, rock-glam look.

On anyone else (or with any other hair colour), it would not have translated as powerfully.

Rooney Mara In Givenchy Couture – 2013 Met Gala

Rooney Mara In Givenchy Couture - 2013 Met Gala

The Met Gala theme for 2013 is ‘PUNK: Chaos to Couture’. The evening was kick started by one of the co-chairs, Rooney Mara.

We should not be surprised that the actress was wearing a Givenchy Couture look, but for an event of this magnitude, I am very surprised that her look, whilst modified, has been worn once before.

Back in May 2011, Penelope Cruz wore this white lace look at the ‘Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides’ London premiere.

The difference is that Rooney’s Couture gown features an additional lace detailing on the shoulders which cascades down the front of her zipper-accented gown.

Shunning the fresh face trend, she opted for a black currant lip colour with her dark locks tied back into a neat ponytail.

I don’t know about you – even putting Penelope Cruz’ similar look aside, I still have a strong case of déjà vu.

This is the not the first, or the second, but a third time she has donned a lace Givenchy Couture look.

Maybe Rooney and Riccardo Tisci need a plan B. Plan A is tired already.

Karolina Kurkova In Givenchy - Moda Operandi’s ‘A Midnight Supper’ Event

Karolina Kurkova attended Moda Operandi’s ‘A Midnight Supper’ event, which launched the retailer’s exclusive ‘Punk Collection’.

The model wore a Givenchy long silk-cady sleeveless vest, featuring studded embellishments, a notch collar and flap pockets, which is part of the limited edition ‘Punk Collection’.

Taking the styling into her own hands, Karolina opted to wear the vest as a dress – naturally, with those long legs – adding ankle-strap pumps and a red clutch to her look.

Working a fresh-faced look, Karolina completed her look with a chic updo and rosy glossy lips.

Look out for Karolina on the red carpet at the Met Gala tonight, where she’s expected to wear a London-based designer.

Ciara In Givenchy – Music Choice’s ‘U&A’ Visit

Ciara In Givenchy - Music Choice's 'U&A' Visit

Ciara visited ‘U&A’ at Music Choice in New York City on Monday to promote her new music.

The singer wore an all-white Givenchy menswear look, once again.

Her white Louboutins and leggings were styled with an embellished sweater from the Givenchy men’s Fall 2012 collection over a shirt with an embellished collar.

As the muse of Riccardo Tisci, is she sending the designer a message that she doesn’t favour the womenswear line anymore?

Ciara isn’t the first to wear this Givenchy sweater; Kanye West wore it last year to the Givenchy Fall 2012 womens presentation.

Zoe Saldana In Givenchy – 2013 MTV Movie Awards

Zoe Saldana In Givenchy - 2013 MTV Movie Awards

Zoe Saldana was one of the many stars who took to the red carpet for the 2013 MTV Movie Awards held at the Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City, California on Sunday evening.

Shunning the mini dresses we have seen across the board, the ‘Star Trek’ actress opted to show off one leg in her Givenchy Fall 2013 dress.

I was on this fence with this dress, which features a black long-sleeved top with a sheer black polka-dot side-slit skirt with floral embroidery, but my final verdict is that I love the look.

I prefer her styling over the runway, despite part of me wishing that this was sleeveless with a plunging neckline, but that would’ve been too obvious.

I think this look had the potential to be quite bland on the wrong person; thankfully, Zoe isn’t that person. Her no-fuss approach worked in this dress’s favour.

Jimmy Choo ‘Kalpa’ heels, jewelry from Emily Faith and Graziela, including an emerald serpent ring, flowing wavy tresses, and a bold lip colour completed her look.

Ciara In Givenchy – Haze Nightclub

Ciara In Givenchy - Haze Nightclub

Ciara was the special guest performer at Haze Nightclub at the Aria Resort & Casino at CityCenter in Las Vegas, Nevada yesterday evening.

Before taking to the stage, the singer walked the red carpet in yet another Givenchy menswear look from the Spring 2013 collection.

On this occasion her crisp white look featured a long uneven hem shirt worn under a Madonna motif t-shirt.

The look was pulled together with white leggings and fresh out-of-the high-top box Givenchy sneakers.

I’m very much on the fence when it comes to this look.

Part of me thinks she looks ridiculous, while the other part loves how she manages to look pretty, soft and feminine in this masculine look.

I think I’m leaning towards the former.

Which way do you swing with this look?
