It may be a dream to get an invite to the annual Costume Institute Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, but wearing one of the red-carpet dresses can be a reality. After Topshop dressed Julianne Hough, Nicole Richie, Jaime King, and Ashley Madekwe in custom creations for this year’s Punk: Chaos to Couture event (as seen above), the retailer announced that all of the designs will be available in stores and on topshop.com this September for $630 to $1,050. In addition, ModaOperandi.com put 15 dresses that walked the red carpet up for pre-order exclusively on the site, including Olivia Wilde’s Calvin Klein creation, Taylor Swift’s J.Mendel gown, and Dakota and Elle Fanning’s Rodarte looks; and you can place your orders at modaoperandi.com. Now that’s something that rocks.

Punks Who Still Rock: Madonna and Debbie Harry at the 2013 Met Gala

May 7, 2013 @ 11:00 am

The fashion world got punk’d last night when typically-prim stars like Allison Williams, Anne Hathaway, and Ginnifer Goodwin added edge to their style in honor of the Met Gala’s 2013 theme, Punk: Chaos to Couture. But nobody got into the spirit quite like the evening’s original rebels, Madonna and Debbie Harry. Madge kicked things off  in true punk form pairing Givenchy‘s spikes, fishnet, and tartan (dog collar included!), while Harry kept things decidedly badass in draped chains, sheer panels, and black shades, naturally.

May 7, 2013 @ 10:00 am

Anne Hathaway is looking pretty in platinum! The star surprised everyone last night when she showed up to the 2013 Met Gala with her pixie dyed to a new icy blonde hue. “Drawing inspiration from unforgettable punk icons like Poly Styrene from X-Ray Spex and Joan Jett, I decided to go for a look that’s glam and edgy, yet youthful and fun,” her hairstylist Sascha Breuer said. “To enhance her punk look further, we decided to take her hair to the next level: A cool platinum blonde color!” Swapping shades just before hitting the red carpet? Now that’s punk rock! “We kept the style much shorter for Anne, and she had a lot of fun playing around with it,” he added. What do you think of her new look? Tell us your thoughts in the comments.
