New York was the site of two very different red carpets on Monday night - the Costume Institute Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of the Arts and the James Beard Awards at Lincoln Center. It's rather amusing to compare the two red carpets:
Met Gala
James Beard Awards
The Met Gala is usually referred to as fashion's Oscars, and there are some jaw-dropping dresses on the red carpet (both good and bad). Highlights for me include Beyonce's Givenchy Haute Couture dress, Cary Mulligan's Prada paillette dress, and Nina Dobrev's dramatic Donna Karan.
As for Jessica Biel, I didn't like the dress, but nice arm candy. My favorite couple, though, is Emily Blunt and John Krasinski. They look so adorable together!
But what was up with Kirsten Dunst and Elizabeth Banks? Those dresses are just ugly.
At the James Beard red carpet, the fashions weren't as dramatic, and in comparison to the Met Gala a bit nerdy, but it's nice to see the chefs out of their whites. Yay for Top Chef: Texas winner Paul Qui winning Best Chef Southwest. Plus it's nice to see another Top Chef: Texas favorite Ed Lee again!
