Red carpet looks from the 2014 Met Gala

The 2014 Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute Gala honored designer Charles James this year. James was known for elegant and sophisticated silhouettes that accented a woman’s sensuality. See below for his work.

Janelle Monae accented her usual black and white with a daring Tadashi Shoji red cape.

Our dear, sweet Lupita may have missed the mark with the outfit (and hair) but even with the feathers and headband that face is gorgeous.

Rita Ora glistened in gold with her Donna Karan Atelier dress and Casadei shoes

Joan Small went for a demur dress from Vera Wang and a bold lip courtesy of Sir John

Zoe Saldana wore a billowy gown from Michael Kors

Not a surprise that the face of Givenchy would where Givenchy to the Gala. (One of our fave looks!)

Solange had a different approach to hair last night in her Philip Lim 3.1 dress
