The opening party for Alexander McQueen’s “Savage Beauty” retrospective at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art took place last night and the red carpet was an amazing parade of tributes to McQueen’s signature fierce style. Choosing just one favorite was impossible so we went with Sarah Burton, who now heads the label and thus far has so nobly filled the very grand shoes of the departed McQueen.

After the flip images of over 60 attendees, ranging from HS fave, Rihanna, to Anna Wintour and Marc Jacobs to everyone you could imagine in between. Enjoy the pageantry!

The bold and the beautiful turned out for cancer-fighting charity DKMS in New York last night, with attendees including Rihanna, Keri Hilson, Leighton Meester, Iman, Solange and Eva Mendes among the guests. We particularly liked Keri Hilson’s outfit, in part because it oh-so-nicely showcases her rack but also because it features a cut-out detail, one of our fave Spring 2011 dress trends.

As one of Time magazine’s 100 most influential, Blake Lively attended a gala last night, hosted by the publication with her luxurious tresses changed from blonde to red. Reviews seem to be mixed (with some at Glamour where we got this pic accusing her of looking like Ariel the mermaid!) though it’s hard not to conclude this move will endear her a bit more with the Chanel-o-philes who thought she was too bland and boring to front the label’s Madesmoiselle bag campaign. Certainly this spices up her image a tad.

A look at her gown in full on the next page.

A few more celebrity images from the TriBeCa Film Festival taking place now in New York City. Chloe Sevigny is featured above, bedecked in a lace dress with a black bag and heels. On the next page images of Rachel Roy and Nina Garcia, both looking fab and happy, plus Julia Roitfeld, Hayden Panettiere, Lorenzo Martone and Eva Mendes, wearing a very red dress.

There have been a number of Tribeca Film Festival events this past week in New York, and quite a few celebrities have been in attendance, ranging from fashion heavy hitters like Anna Wintour and Karl Lagerfeld (who showed a Magnum Ice Cream commerical he directed, featuring Rachel Bilson) to professional party attenders and names from days gone by like Susanna Hoffs and Debbi Peterson of the Bangles. We culled through the images and picked our faves–some we know well and others we are clueless on, but whatever, their fashion choices caught our eye and a lot of the time that is all that matters. That’s Ashley and MK above of course–a little prezzy for SGP, who is an admirer of their styles choices, and as it happens in this instance we were in agreement.

More on the next page, including Leigh Lezark, Lauren Hutten, Zoe Karvitz, Susanna Hoffs & Debbi Peterson, Crystal Renn, Christy Turlington, Rachel Bilson, Christy Turlington, Karolina Kurkova, Jay Choi, Sky Ferreira and a few more.

Karl Lagerfeld hosted a coming out party in Paris for his latest collaboration with Coca-Cola Light. It featured a bunch of Lagerfeld look-a-likes, and a bevvy of beautiful models and actresses. Singer Uffie is shown above. We spoke yesterday about the great exchanges that can come from collaborations, but this one has always rubbed the wrong way. It’s meaning is simply lost on me–no offense to the diet soda addicts in the crowd!

After the flip, images of Lagerfeld, plus more of Uffie (including a close up on her shoes), Lily Cole, Audrey Marnay, Lou Lesage, Beatrice Rosen and  Nicole Trunfio.

Our favortie gown on the red carpet for the Academy Awards was worn by Brazilian-born model and girlfriend of Matthew McConaughey, Camila Alves. It helps of course that she is a professional beauty, but really the neckline of this dress (even if the skirt is a bit much) and the glossy black color against her skin, plus her perfect hair, makeup and accessories are what make for a total gorgeous package. Heidi Klum as always look fantastic, but she was dressed for a viewing party hosted by Elton John and wasn’t an official Oscar red carpet walker. Some fashion site last week had hinted that celebs this year were ready to be inspired by Lady Gaga’s more adventerous style and as such there would be plenty for Joan Rivers to mock, but alas, everyone must have chickened out at the last minute because gown choices were as conservative as ever.

More images on the next page including Heidi Klum, Gwyneth Paltrow, Mila Kunis, Natalie Portman, Celine Dion, Jennifer Hudson, Anne Hathaway, Kate Blanchett, Marisa Tomei and a few others.

Here’s a look at our faves from last night’s Grammy awards. Images include both red carpet–which was all about the gown with train, and performance looks. Featured celebs include Rihanna (above wearing Dior), Heidi Klum (Julien McDonald), Katy Perry (Giorgio Armani), Kim Kardashian (Kaufman Franco), Jennifer Lopez (Pucci), Nicki Minaj (Givenchy), Ciara (Pucci)….you know, all the usuals plus a few others.

Michelle Obama shows the red carpet celebs how to do visually arresting yet still regal, wearing a red Alexander McQueen gown to a China state dinner with her husband.

The Golden Globe Awards took place last night and from a fashion perspective it was the usual snore fest. Beautiful, gorgeously made gowns with a heavy emphasis on peach and beige hues (or black), but if one didn’t know better, one would conclude these were images taken at a high-end fancy pants wedding. Seal and Heidi Klum (above), both in Marc Jacobs stood out, but then again, her roots are fashion not Hollywood. After the flip, our fave wedding party gowns, which are labeled with the name of the designer.
