Spring’s black-tie season kicked off with last night’s Met Gala honoring the late, absurdly talented Alexander McQueen. While none too many a fashion risk was taken, the event was still a sartorial feast for the eyes with winning couture choices, strong silhouettes, and stunning vintage pieces worn by the fashion set and Hollywood’s red carpet regulars.
