We sincerely hope you didn’t miss The Met Gala Red Carpet, but just in case you did, we have rounded up our Fashion Pulse Daily “Bests” of the evening full of glamour, in honor of Schiaparelli and Prada: Impossible Conversations exhibit launch.
Best Sparkle: Carey Mulligan co-chaired the evening’s event in none other than Prada (see above).

Best Use of Color: Gwyneth’s light lavender Prada mini was just the right amount of color, and did you see those sequin pockets?

Sang A
Artfully slung or perched on a black wooden ladder, exposed zippers rocked python patterned leather and suede, all kept within a dark color range fit for the edgy consumer to accessorize with reptiles. The designer herself was in attendance, ensuring glasses were kept filled to the brim and posing for press snapshots. For a while, at least, I forgot about the torrential downpour deluging Manhattan outside. Shop her collection here.

Gary Graham
Whimsical and fairy tale-like, Graham’s collection this season recalls the romantic aesthetics of yesteryear, but makes his garments wearable for the now. The designer fused earth tones with red, black, floral, and a greener aquamarine to create a endearing-yet-edgy collection suitable for both scuttling across pavement or skipping through a pasture. The A-line shape appeared again, accompanied by draped dresses, fitted skirts and cropped pants falling just-below-the-knee , layered with loose fitting blouses, lace vests and tight geometric patterns. His first shoe collection (all ankle boots, both wedged and heeled) proved the perfect agent to seduce the audience, wooing in shades of olive, taupe, and red.

Minimarket
Inspired by voodoo and superstition, Minimarket presented an eclectic collection comprised of strong cuts playing tribute to the female shape. Elaborate hair ornaments made of straw, leaves, wood and feathers underscored the allusion to dark arts. Comprised of semi-geometric patterns and solids, the looks adhere to different shades of a trio: apricot, aqua and blue, accented by either cayenne or black. Accessorized with John Lennon sunglasses and two meter long necklaces, the three Swedish designers behind the brand managed to produce my favorite collection of the week.
Henrik Vibskov
Held at the eerie pedestrian bridge in a very dark Copenhagen park, the last show of the evening was worth the wait. Adorned with a thick black fabric wrapped from crown to chin paired with opaque goggles, models plodded down the make-shift wooden planks in simple-yet-dynamic garments. Maintaining his eccentric reputation, Vibskov sent a wooden sailboat down the opposite end of the runway, creating an unfortunate distraction to the otherwise strong collection.

Wood Wood
Soaked in H2O and rocking tangled knots with the odd fabric weaved braid, models sauntered the through the numerous rooms hosting this season’s show with a jaded attitude to match the utility-inspired garments. Kiss-printed dress shirts and graphic A-line skirts and shorts ran throughout this light-hearted collection, while the backpack adorned many backsides, proving the practical accessory is here to stay.

Have you ever admired the fashion and accessories from another country? If so, there is good news; you don’t have to go abroad to get culturally-inspired pieces. These Antiqued Ethiopian Bangles, $7.80, are modeled after the jewelry in this East African country and are truly unlike anything you have ever seen. They feature an amalgamation of textures and materials, in gold, black, and wood. There are a total of seven bangles in the set, each of varying thicknesses. They can be worn one at a time or all together. So, why not mix and match?
