The Costume Institute Gala, Special Edition- Previous Years Best Dressed

On May 7th the fashion elite will come out in force for the The Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute Gala, which is the opening gala to launch their 2012 exhibit honoring Elsa Schiaparelli and Miuccia Prada officially titled- "Schiaparelli and Prada: Impossible Conversations". Basically the Costume Institute Gala has been dubbed before as 'the Oscars of the East Coast' and it really is, I look forward to this every year- eager to see who wore what and how daring were with there 'costume' choices because I love guests who take the theme and run with it really using that as the main focus for what they wear but sadly others just turn up wearing just another gown. Have fun with it, it's the COSTUME INSTITUTE GALA after all! But anyway in this post I'm sharing some of my favourite looks from attendees of past years at the Gala, I will also state the year and theme from each one so you can choose for yourself if that person really did embody the title theme from said year... Enjoy!
