2014 amfAR Gala at Milan Fashion Week
Fashion Month is rolling right along. Let’s take a quick stop at the amfAR Milano Gala and see what the supermodels have for us today.
POPPY DELEVINGNE

Cara better watch her back, because she’s dangerously closed to being eclipsed by her fabulous big sister Poppy. A tunic and pants might not seem gala-appropriate, but these particular separates are too perfect for me to care. The perfect 1970s-throwback tailoring brings that overdone trend to new and interesting heights. The floral detailing is gorgeous, and no matter how many times I see the Bulgari serpent necklace, I fall in love with it all over again.
COCO ROCHA

Hate the wig; love everything else. The art deco mega-shoulders are a work of art. Basic bitches can back the fuck off, because this is a dress for goddamn divas only.
ASHLEY MADEKWE

She was born to wear this burnt-orange-bronze color. And the button detailing on the sides is just the most delightful surprise.
TONI GARRN

These curvy-shaped, fringe-detailed Stella McCartney dresses were all the rage about a year and a half ago, maybe a little more. I can’t remember the exact moment of when that dark time in my life occurred. I only know that I saw enough of these dresses to want to die every time I saw a curve. But time heals all wounds, and I think I have developed enough scar tissue to actually enjoy this dress. (Probably because it doesn’t also have paisleys.) But it may be an eternity before I’m ready to see two of these dresses at the same event again:
BAR REFAELI

In a vacuum, this dress is fine. But sadly, we do not live in a vacuum, and our non-vacuum world is overrun with supermodels in the same goddamn Stella McCartney dress over and over again.

I liked this dress on Leighton Meester at this year’s Met Gala, but these strappier, less clunky sandals work much better with the delicate gown. But the hair is a problem. With a funkier, more casual, less art-deco-fabulous outfit, messy hair is totally acceptable. But those straggly locks DO NOT WORK with a gown this glam.
NIEVES ALVAREZ

Perfect dress, but she could have gone for some more surprising accessories with such a simple outfit.
BIANCA BRANDOLINI D’ADDA
gown by Giambattista Valli

Sorry, international stars who are ridiculously beautiful – even you have to run a hairbrush through your mane once in awhile. I mean, you don’t even have to do it yourself. You can pay someone for that. But somebody needs to get that shit done, so that I can pay attention to how awesome your outfit is.
ALESSANDRA AMBROSIO
gown by Versace, purse by Elena Ghisellini

She looks perfect, but I feel like I’ve seen her in this outfit a thousand times before. No actual complaints, but she could have had a bit more fun.
HEIDI KLUM
gown and shoes by Atelier Versace

What heinous felony did Heidi’s abs commit, that she feels the need to put them behind bars?
BELLA THORNE
gown by Emilio Pucci

Isn’t it adorable when sixteen-year-olds think they’re adults? Bella, sweetheart, this is a dress for a grown-up. And your braided hairstyle alone proves that you are most definitely not a grown-up.
MORAN ATIAS

What, has she never been on a red carpet before? You ALWAYS do a camera-flash test to make sure your dress isn’t see-through under bright lights. Come on. That’s a rookie mistake.
