These sidewalk shots are kind of shitty (they were all our photo agency had on offer), but the looks at the New York City Ballet Spring Gala were definitely worth discussing – some of them, anyway; specifically, these three.

It’s interesting and kind of pretty from the front, but thaose luggage straps really let the whole design down. We like the shape of it. And the purple shoes area fun choice.

Her bestie Zac Posen keeps putting out these red carpet looks made with GAP materials, and the results tend to be hit or miss. The skirt is gorgeous. The top looks flimsy and wrinkled, although we like the shape of it. She obviously didn’t want to wear the jacket, but it doesn’t look like it coordinates well with the dress anyway. He’s looking fine, in every sense of the word.

It’s giving “I didn’t get invited to the Met Gala.” Despite the lack of masks on the others, this was a masquerade ball, so the mask isn’t as attention-seeking as it might seem. The dress, on the other hand, is hideous. That mask deserved better.
