Previous Slide Taraji P. Henson, I Can Do Bad All By Myself Next Slide

5. Taraji P. Henson, I Can Do Bad All By Myself

Her hair is voluminous but not poufy, and the side-swept bangs hit the right 45-degree angle—proving she can certainly do bob all by herself.

    Met Gala: The best theme dressing throughout the years

    Each spring we look forward to the opulent red-carpet display that takes place at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s annual Costume Institute Gala and the dresses that will grace its steps the first Monday in May. The evening is never short on grandeur, but there’s always a few artistically minded guests who go the extra mile and dress with the year’s exhibit wholeheartedly in mind—donning a look that not only impresses but more than tips its perfectly considered hat to the theme. From Hamish Bowles’ tartan tuxedo in homage to Alexander McQueen to Kate Moss in a gold-lame Marc Jacobs frock and matching turban embodying the concept of Model as Muse, we pay tribute to those who creatively and elegantly elevate the dress code.

Here, we bring you our slideshow of the most unforgettable looks from the ball of all time.
