The fashion team has spoken and the best dressed guests of the 2016 MET Gala have been announced (Celebtities vs Models): I guess, it's my turn now.
Beauty lovers here I am, let's discover the top 3 beauty looks from this year's gala:

Best Makeup: Zendaya

That golden Michael Kors's gown has made her win a spot among the best dressed of the night, but can we talk about that dramatic eyes make-up?
The young fashionista wore a simple brown/golden smokey-eye: natural-looking fake lashes and a light touch of black eyeliner were added to enhance the drama-queen effect.
Quell'abito dorato firmato Michael Kors le ha garantito un posto tra le meglio vesiste della serata, ma possiamo parlare un attimo di quello sguardo magnetico?
La giovane fashionista indossa un semplice smokey eye sui toni caldi del marrone e dell'oro: ad enfatizzare la profondità dello sguardo si aggiungono ciglia finte dall'aspetto naturale ed una sottile riga di eyeliner.

Best Lips Makeup: Hailee Steinfeld

I seriousily have a thing for bold lipsticks, so thank you Hailee for bringing some boldness on the red carpet.
To replicate her lips-makeup you only need a bordeaux lipstick, better if paired with a good lip gloss to add more volume.
Credo di avere un debole per i rossetti dai colori audaci, quindi grazie Hailee per aver portato un' di sfrontatezza sul tappeto rosso.
Per riprodurre il suo look avere bisogno solo di un rossetto sulle tonalità del bordeaux, meglio se abbinato ad un gloss trasparente per enfetizzare maggiormente il volume delle labbra.

Best Hairstyle: Nina Dobrev

Such a lovely hairstyle: Nina's beautiful hair were gentily curled up and fastened with golden hair clips, to match her Disney-like Marchesa dress.
A nice all-natural trick to get beautiful and healty hair?
A homemade hair-mask, made of avocado's pulp, half cup of yogurt and a table-spoon of honey.
Mix all the ingredients together and massage the mixture into your scalp, working from the roots to the hair ends, then let it sit for at least 30 minutes. You may like to cover your hair with a disposable plastic shower during the wait. After the 30 minutes have passed do a final rinse, and enjoy your fresh new hair!
Una pettinatura davvero romantica: la bellissima chioma di Nina è stata raccolta dolcemente alla base della testa, e assicurata con fermagli dorati per rimandere in tema con il principesco abito di Marchesa.
Un trucco tutto naturale per capelli forti e luminosi?

Una maschera con la polpa di avocado maturo, mezzo vasetto di yogurt e un cucchiaio di miele.

Amargamate tutti gli ingredienti con cura ed applicate il composto sulla cute, massaggiando dalle radici alle punte; poi lasciate in posa il tutto per almeno 30 minuti. Potrebbe farvi comodo tenere in posa la maschera con della pellicola da cucina o una cuffia per la doccia. Passati i 30 minuti risciaquate a fondo, ed il gioco è fatto!

The first Monday of May marks an important date for the fashion industry: the annual Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute Gala. The fanciest red carpet of the year, where guests (all personally invited by Vogue’s editor Anna Wintour, and wealthy enough to pay $25,000 for an individual ticket) are expected to dress according to a theme, that  traditionally reflects the latest luxurious exhibit of the Costume Institute. 

This year theme/exhibit is called “Manus x Machina: Fashion in an Age of Technology”. An ambitious project aimed to explore the blurring line between handmade fashion and machine-made fashion: a tribute to the technological evolution of the fashion industry.

Therefore it is no surprise to see Apple as a sponsor of the event. 

Honorary chairs have been reserved to Karl Lagerfeld, Miuccia Prada and Nicolas Ghesquière; the host of the night was of course Anna Wintour, while this year’s co-hosts happened to be Apple's chief design officer Jonathan Ive, Taylor Swift and Idris Elba. 

All the biggest names in fashion and Hollywood gathered together in New York to strut on the red carpet, but who was the queen of the night? Which designer managed to stand out in the crowd? Any worst dressed?

Watch out stars & designers: if the dress is bad we would tell it!

Mark my words, because this is the most brutally honest review you will find on the internet: at #TEB we do not care about famous names or brands’ reputations, no one paid us to feature a specific opinion, so take a seat because it is going to be fun...

LITERAL HOMAGE TO THE THEME

Claire Danes in Zac Posen

To everyone thinking "so what, isn't this a typical Posen's design", well shut up. 

It glows in the dark!! 

Genius idea and amazing tailoring: Posen is definitely the go-to-designer when it comes to the MET.

Isn't this the look of the year?

BEST LOOKS OF THE NIGHT

Beyoncé in Givenchy

As you know I wasn't a fan of her naked "gown" last year, because to me it had nothing to do with the particular theme of the night. However I can't say the same about this year's latex number: I love it. It's daring, as her character, and might not feel comfortable, but the design is exquisite in my eyes. However let me state a fact: this is definitely one of those dresses that works only on specific people. Definitely not for everyone.

Zendaya in Michael Kors

This look oozes luxury from every angle: the design feels old school but the embellishment is a modern touch. The styling? A show-stopper.

Sienna Miller in Gucci

Given the night's theme, I was wondering how Gucci would have perfomed...Well, looking at this metallic gown on Sienna I would say: so good.

Katy Perry in Prada

Costumy, I agee. Especially the styling, but can we talk about the dress? It fits the theme to the bone.

Kate Hudson in Versace

As you will witness through this review, this will happen to be the only decent Versace gown of the entire event. Trust me.

Back to the dress, I like the construction and how it fits Kate, althought the styling could have been more dramatic.

Olivia Wilde in Michael Kors

Maternity style with an edge. Definitely old school in the design, but still a good choice for the gala.

Nicole Kidman in Alexander McQueen

Finally Ms Kidman wears something we can all agree on liking. Pure elegance.

OFF TOPIC, BUT STILL GOOD

Blake Lively in Burberry

It took me a while to appreciate this: the cape brings on all the drama, but was it enough? The handcraft was beautiful, indeed this blush pink silk-organza design counts hand-dyed and sewn perspex petals. However I didn't feel the futuristic vibe.

Nina Dobrev in Marchesa

A cute and elegant look. I am sure that at a closer look the embellishment would feel amazing, however with no 'wow effects' à la Zac Posen, this gown seems more appropriate for a 'Gone with the wind' revival.

Jessica Chastain in Prada

No sign of future, just classic yet exquisite details. Besides I still have to find a blue gown that doesn't do justice to Jessica's beauty.

Lea Seydoux in Louis Vuitton

The French actress made her official debut on the MET's red carpet wearing as expected a Louis Vuitton design, as she was recently announced as the new face of the historical brand.

However, I don't even know if we can consider this a gala-worthy look, though Lea oozes class and mistery. Besides, note that this is the only decent Louis Vuitton outfit of the night.

Emily Blunt in Michael Kors

How many times have we seen this design? Many. 

Luckily for Michael Kors, I am one of those who never gets tired to see it on a red red carpet.

Kate Bosworth in Dolce&Gabbana

A highly embellished look, no doubt, but I only like it from the waist-up.

Zoey Deutch in Dolce&Gabbana

A good living advertise for Dolce&Gabbana: out of theme, but it is impossible to call this not gala-worthy.

Zoe Saldana in Dolce&Gabbana

And the "Longest train award" goes to...Zoe!

Something tells me that with a shorter train, I wouldn't have paid attention to this look: not a fan, I know how to prise a drama-queen when I see one.

DID ANYONE PAY YOU TO WEAR THIS?

Taylor Swift in Louis Vuitton

So Anna Wintour spent Vogue's money to give Taylor Swift an extreme makeover, the May cover of the magazine, the title of co-host at the 2016 Met Gala...and a dress perfect for the VMA?

Not Impressed.

Kim Kardashian & Kanye West in Balmain

This Balmain/Kardashian/Jenner/West affair should come to an end. I am sure that MsD would have used more flattering words to describe this circus, I will try to emulate her.

Why forcing the styling that far? To keep the focus off the clothes?

Blue contacts, a questionable make up and denim on the MET gala's red carpet: reconsider your crush on Balmain, because ther is nothing appealing here.

Kylie Jenner in Balmain

A thousand times better than Kim Kardashian, but still plain.

Plus, the entire presentation aged this young girl of ten years.

Dakota Johnson in Gucci

Dakota Johnson and the new wave of Gucci designs are a match made in heaven...but not this time, and especially with futuristic theme.

Lupita Nyong'o in Calvin Klein

The dress is nothing special, even if I like the color on her skin. The hair represent a desperate move to make the dress feel relevant.

Emma Stone in Prada

This is a hard one, because everything looks beautiful, but I can't help myself from seeing this as a last minute design-idea. 

FKA Twigs in Versace

I would have never told that this was a Donatella Versace design...because basically there is no actual design, just ideas badly mixed together.

Saoirse Ronan in Christopher Kane

Ok those fluffy feathers are giving me nightmares...especially those on the hem. Christopher Kane would never be on my favourites list. 

Ciara in H&M

A questionable retro/goth styled wig and a nude tent. Nice catch CiCi.

Hailee Steinfeld in H&M

The styling is so cheap that it hurts, while the dress couldn't be less predictable.

Sarah Jessica Parker in Monse

As soon as I got a glimpse at SJP look I thought I was looking at a vintage red carpet photo. No way that this could be a recent red carpet look from the American actress. I was wrong. 

I have never thought that I would say this one day, but Sarah Jessica Parker totaly failed a Met Gala's theme.

Alicia Vikander in Louis Vuitton

I like Alicia Vikander for Louis Vuitton, but after seeing her awards season look, this one feels like a joke. 

It fits the theme, but not the gala.

NO

Selena Gomez in Louis Vuitton

Let's close the discussion on Louis Vuitton with the worst look ever presented at the gala. I am so sorry that Selena was the one choosen to wear it.

Kristen Stewart in Chanel

I would never understand Chanel's fascination for Kristen Stewart...

Rita Ora in Vera Wang

Among my few certainties in life comes Rita Ora featured in - as usual - the worst dressed list.

The girl has definitely a talent...

Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen in The Row

Should I really comment this?

Nicki Minaj in custom Moschino

Custom made: when a designer manufactures a one of a kind look for the customer.

In the fashion industry this is a form of respect and esteem to the client by the designer.

The problem is when the designer is called Jeremy Scott...

Zayn Malik in Versace

The most ridiculous man suit I have ever seen.

He might be Gigi's boyfriend, but doesn't he look like an accessory to his plus-one?

Lady Gaga in Versace

Let me resume the Versace's styling crescendo: Kate Hudson, FKA Twigs, Zayn Malik and now Lady Gaga.

Wow.

Madonna in Givenchy

For those who "Madonna will be always ahead of Lady Gaga", you are right.
