A Punk Attitude

Hollywoods biggest stars proved that fashion is the name of the game at any event but even more so when it is something as renowned as Metropolitan Museum of Arts annual Costume Institute Gala in New York which took place on the 6^th May.

With the theme being edgy the stars left their inhibitions at home and convinced everyone that goth is certainly the new glam.

With a variety of interpretations of the theme the Gala looked like a mixed runway show where glamour, confidence and originality were key.

A sea of eye catching elegant outfits, head-turning sexy ensembles and heart-stoppingly inventive get ups made this years Gala one to remember.

There were the stars who made ‘safe’ the new sexy with simple yet flattering dresses that were so dazzling they didn’t need to be accessorized for Simon Cowell to give his approval, they already had the X factor.

Miranda Kerr naturally stunned in a Michael Kors cut-away dress and her most accentuating accessory were her deep berry red lips complementing the look with a tasty edge.

Cameron Diaz donned a Stella McCartney fitted cobalt blue dress and cape finishing the look with a rocky style black belt with gold spikes and Olivia Wilde shone in a bandeu style ivory satin dress with cutaway detail and a slight black panelling making her look effortlessly beautiful.

Miss Kerr would have looked even vampire if she had added a pair of daring earrings such as the Tebazile spider web ones or for a less daring look she could have added a plain Tebazile silver cuff that is so simple yet statement.

The lovely Cameron Diaz would have been over the moon with the Tebi Jewels gold tone spike ring, it would have matched her belt and added to her rockability.

Olivia Wilde did ‘simple’ proud but she could have added the X factor with a Tebazile Black Onyx Ring, this would have picked up the black panelling in her dress, giving the monochrome essence more definition and served as an edgy injection to the outfit fit for the theme.

Others used eccentricity as a nod to the theme and ensured all eyes were on them with perhaps a choice of slightly bizarre but nonetheless fitting outfits for the occasion.

Kristen Stewart wore a Stella McCartney mulled wine jumpsuit with broderie anglaise detailing and matching eye shadow finished off with black heels and a clutch bag.

Debatably a bit of a dull choice Kristen should have shocked with a pair of over the top earrings, especially as she was wearing her hair in a sleek up-do.

A pair of plain yet sassy square metal silver Tebazile Earrings would have complemented and accentuated the look effortlessly.

And Whilst Katy Perry chose an OTT Dolce and Gabbana costume consisting of a boxy embellished style gown that did not favour her figure, gold crown and extra large gold earrings giving the whole look a baroque essence rather than a punk one Beyonce took to the red carpet in a Givenchy flame motif skirt with matching high boots and long gloves, snakeskin corset and studded belt also a seemingly unusual choice wich was missing the perfect Tebi Jewels Black Choker.

Then there were those that wanted to celebrate a fusion of sexy and elegance with a hint of punk.

Kate Bosworth although she seemed to have neglected the essence of the gala with little attitude to her outfit she did manage to still look stunning in her Balmain pink beaded mini dress teamed with a black and gold belt.

SJP certainly lived up to her wacky fashionista status in a Giles Deacon gown that was cupcake like puffy in black, gold, brown and ivory hues mixed together to create a pattern and cut so at the front so that her high black velvet boots were on show and giving us a sexy peek-a-boo style.

She then topped the brave style stakes once again by teaming up her outfit with a Philip Treacy Mohican hairpiece whilst Katie Holmes kept it very simple in a billowing ivory white Calvin Klein halterneck gown that was screaming out for an added Tebazile plain gold or silver cuff that would have inevitably completed her outfit.

And last but not least there were the stars that took the theme to heart and ensured to put the punk into fashion.

If anyone was going to execute the theme to perfection it was going to be Miley Cyrus as punk and chaos are right up her street.

She wore a spectacular floor length column Marc Jacobs dress constructed head to toe in black fishnet.

She topped the already rocky look with spiky hair, vibrant red blood lips and an oversized cocktail ring, needless to say Miss Cyrus did not disappoint.

And whilst Anne Hathaway showed off her newly bleached hair and her envious figure in a vintage Valentino sheer dress with black feather writs cuff detailing, Madonna shocked (as usual) in a belted blazer by Givenchy Couture, chequered with large gold studs, fishnets and black stockings paired with hot pink heels and Florence Welch did the gala proud by stepping out in Givenchy Couture and showing her vixen side with an opulent black number with a sexy centre split, beaded work on the bustier and dramatic fringe sleeves.

The great thing about this years met gala is that it brought to life one of peoples old favourite fashion trends and one that is easily put together.

Spikes, bold colours, daring chains, oversized accessories teamed with brave hair styles and colours, fishnets and anything else that mixes is already the beginning of a rock story.

Tebi Jewels and Tebazile have of course also covered this trend when showcasing their collections.

With an array of chain accessories, long layering necklaces, statement silver numbers, matching earrings a la punk, funky, bold and bright earrings and a copious amount of rosaries in different styles, colours and sizes available there is nothing you won’t find to complete your rock attire.
