I thought it would be fun to recap what Vogue Editor in Chief Anna Wintour wore last week to the Met’s Costume Institute Gala to celebrate the opening of Schiaparelli & Prada: Impossible Conversations.
It’s no surprise that she opted for Prada instead of the Chanel she usually favors for the Gala and I loved the wink-wink aspect of her dress—it is Miuccia Prada’s rendition of Elsa Schiaparelli’s iconic “Lobster” dress.

In Prada’s version, the lobster, in heavy beading, winds around the dress, and you can see in the detail shot that sizeable stones in different shades of topaz and gold were used. To complete the look Anna added a white fur capelet—I’m not sure if it’s by Prada but knowing Anna it’s probably real fur—and her stack of Georgian-era gemstone collet necklaces.

For the after party, obviously a more casual affair (and who knew there was an after party?), she wore this lovely black print dress with a circle skirt. I’ll bet it was Prada.

Earlier in the day, when I saw her at the press preview for the exhibit she wore a fabulous green geometric-patterned jacket and skirt, also by Prada, with her old standby Manolo Blahnik heels.

I do love how she wears her necklaces. I'd love to get my hands on one of those beauties!
To be confident and know the fashion industry like she does must make it easy getting dressed for a gala.
She's smiling in so many of these pictures...haven't seen that before! Her clothes are fabulous...I just wonder if she has ever been truly joyful...I hope so..she has lead a dream career-life!
What a fabulous post on Anna - LOVE her look! And I cannot stop myself from looking at the photos of her stunning necklaces over and over again. They are breathtaking!
I love the suit best of all...though the jewels she wore for the red carpet are beautiful. And, how cool, to be in the same frame with Anna.
What a gown! The lobster is quite something with those sizeable gems - great going getting that shot of her!
I am really loving the beading on that white dress. She has such a defined style, especially when it comes to the jewellery. Lovely images. -xo
She is the ultimate power dresser but she always looks great to me!
Ps. We've added you to our blogroll under our favourite blogs to read! It'd be great if you could feature us on your blogroll too! Not to worry if you can't, but I just thought I'd let you know :-)
Happy blogging!
