Valentino

Sienna Miller knows how to start (and own) a trend — boho chic, anyone? — but her latest turn toward a more feminine fit-and-flare silhouette is something she has actually loved for years. While Miller's long-sleeved, light blue Matthew Williamson box-pleat dress may be the most recent example of her penchant for the girlier style, she has also stepped out in Topshop, Valentino, and Twenty8Twelve iterations. And it's not hard to see why she loves a fit-and-flare dress — and why, if you haven't converted yet, it's a really flattering choice for most body types. By cinching the smallest part of your waist and letting the skirt flare out over the hips, it creates an illusion of a bombshell-like figure. And for those of you who aren't after a totally body-con fit, this route touches on something halfway to form-fitting. All the proof you need, according to Sienna Miller, is right here.

Buying for mum can be tough, especially if she isn't really into wearing makeup or nuts about skincare. Fragrance is the perfect choice for those stuck at a crossroads when it comes to gift-giving, and we've got 10 newbies to set your (and your mums!) nostrils aflame.

The Costume Institute Benefit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art never fails to bring out the big guns — after all, where else can A-list celebrities, designers, models, and fashion insiders rub elbows, in couture, in one place? For this year's Met Gala, fashion's finest converged to celebrate the "Punk: Chaos to Couture" exhibition, which will honour punk's impact on high fashion over the past three decades (and counting). As is customary for this event, celebrities and models arrive on the arms of their favourite designers, and hit the red carpet with their super-stylish significant others and fashionable friends — so we're rounding up the well-dressed duos (okay, there may be some trios thrown in there as well) from tonight's rock n' roll-inspired red carpet.

Gwyneth Paltrow continued her string of red carpet wins at today's Costume Institute Benefit, wearing a bold pink gown with a sheer panel from Valentino to escort the designer himself down the famous red carpet. Gwyneth isn't known for indulging in the punk style being celebrated in the the Metropolitan Museum of Art's new Punk: Chaos to Couture exhibit, but she did dress a bit edgier than usual for the occasion. Gwyneth is no stranger to the annual fun at the Met, having also attending the ball in 2012 and 2011. Today, like last year, she'll be able to mingle with a star-studded crowd that includes her best friend, Beyoncé Knowles. What do you make of Gwyneth's look? Let us know by weighing in on all of our Met Gala fashion polls.

Anne Hathaway took the Met Gala's punk theme to the next level and debuted a new dye job on the red carpet in NYC today. She accented her platinum blonde locks with a sexy, vintage Valentino gown from 1992. Anne's not the only star to rock wild hair today — check out Miley Cyrus' spikey 'do and Nicole Richie's white locks! Be sure to vote on your favourites in our Met Gala fashion and beauty polls.
