Glee’s golden girl, Lea Michele attended the Met Gala held on Monday evening. Lea went for a bright red custom made number by Escada. This isn’t a bad dress but when you wear a full length ball gown in the evocative colour of red, its got to be a pretty spectacular dress.

Penelope Cruz also attended the ball. For Penelope a classic black silk organza tiered gown from the upcoming fall collection by Oscar De La Renta. Penelope isn’t going to win any awards for this look but sometimes, when the event is as big as the Met ball, playing it safe might be the sensible option.

Actress Ginnifer Goodwin also attended the event, Ginnifer surprised by not picking a high fashion look like many of her fellow attendees. Instead Ginnifer went for a dress by British high street favourite Topshop. Don’t get too excited, it’s not your average off the rack Topshop, it’s a custom made design by Topshop Unique. The colour is great and the twist front detailing is just the right amount of sexy.
