PUNK: CHAOS TO COUTURE

Sarah Jessica Parker and Vogue's Hamish Bowles 

This year's The Costume Institute Gala aka MET Ball celebrated opening of fashion exhibition "PUNK: Chaos to couture". The exhibition will showcase punk's impact on high fashion since it's birth in 1970s. Most of the fashion houses contributed several punk-inspired pieces, including Givenchy and Vivienne Westwood. The event was co-chaired by Givenchy's Riccardo Tisci, the girl with dragoon tatoo Rooney Mara, Moda Operandi's creative director Lauren Santo Domingo, Vogue's editor-in-chief Anna Wintour and honorary chair Beyonce.   

Though some celebrities tried to stick to the punk theme, others just went with tested evening gowns.
