2011 Met Costume Institute Gala: Karen Elson

3 May, 2011 by POPSUGAR Fashion AU

Model (and Mrs. Jack White) Karen Elson wore this stunning sheer sequined Alexander McQueen gown in tribute to the late designer. She complemented the dress with black and gold shimmering eyeshadow and wore her hair down in long, soft curls. It's a bold choice, but do you think Karen pulls it off?
