Punked at The Met Ball

New York City's Party of The Year
Punk: Chaos To Couture

Choosing the Punk theme
for The Metropolitan Museum's Costume Institute exhibition this year, was controversial
to some and fun for many.  Perhaps the idea
will render new interest from a younger set.


Many of the attendees went with the theme...dressing the part.  Others arrived
in typical grand gala garb. Here's a look at the
Red Carpet....or anarchy at The Met.

Who punked or shrunk Thom's pants?

she is wearing the entire garden.
