The tights and dress fail for me, but the clutch? Love. The earrings? ADORE.

Glittersniffer on Mon, 05/04/2009 - 7:55pm

wow these posts are coming in fast! there's a lot of bright colors going on here ... not crazy about the matchy lipstick and clutch, or the black tights. or the braid.

superstar2780 on Mon, 05/04/2009 - 7:57pm

Why does she have to wear tights with everything now?!

laura220 on Mon, 05/04/2009 - 7:58pm

Ack, you're right, Fab -- the tights kill it.

MandyWH on Mon, 05/04/2009 - 7:59pm

I dont like it. She is usually so pretty.

Aurora 87 on Mon, 05/04/2009 - 7:59pm

ugh, those tights! Also not a fan of the green earrings with the rest of the ensemble

I love almost anything in blues and greens--I wish she didn't wear the black tights to drown out the summery sea colors.

Shannolyn on Mon, 05/04/2009 - 8:00pm

the tights and shoes kill it or else there would be some serious potential.

shafiii on Mon, 05/04/2009 - 8:01pm

Hate the tights. She should have run to the nearest bathroom and throw them away.

Anadi on Mon, 05/04/2009 - 8:02pm

Ever since she's entered mommyhood, she's seemed to totally go for a mom look. tights...with that dress? COME ONNN! not a fan of the shoes either. hair's kinda typical but not a focus point in her look. sigh, alba a-la pre-baby was prime.

Anonymous on Mon, 05/04/2009 - 8:06pm

I think she looks great... tights and all. I don't think she normally wants to reveal too much skin, so she wears tights or leggings..

avocado_seed on Mon, 05/04/2009 - 8:07pm

BORING! It simply looks common. Girls wear that dress to night clubs that exact same way.... well maybe not the exact dress Eye-wink This is the Costume Gala, and i wish she would have been more innovative.

Diamond720 on Mon, 05/04/2009 - 8:16pm

Wtf is she wearing???

RockAndRepublic on Mon, 05/04/2009 - 8:18pm

Not even my girl-crush on J. Alb can make me like this.

emilymaraschino on Mon, 05/04/2009 - 8:20pm

the tights make the look too casual

sandy82 on Mon, 05/04/2009 - 8:27pm

I like that she's not trying TOO hard.. I read somewhere that she hates her legs.. have you ever seen her wear short dress with out tights?

jodie_ohlala on Mon, 05/04/2009 - 8:47pm

Hate. For a movie premiere? Love it. However for such a stunning event in fashion? WAY too simple.

leeluvfashion on Mon, 05/04/2009 - 10:16pm

Eww, Jessia Alba! You are at a gala, not some bar.

brunchattopshop on Mon, 05/04/2009 - 11:24pm

nop hate it - BORING but love the earrings

IasminiPeixe on Mon, 05/04/2009 - 11:56pm

the dress is not what i thought she'd wear....
& off with the tights!!!

LOVErickii on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 12:09am

I love that dress!

BabyNorbert on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 1:11am

The pic on the left made me think of Frida Kahlo...
And as everyone else has said, that would look infinitely better without those stupid tights. But I love all the bright colors!

MacDre on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 2:10am

I think she was trying to be different with the tights, and personally, i think she achieved it.

Anonymous on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 3:20am

Please, have more respect for the event and wear something really suitable for the occasion, not a short dress. Anyway, voted no because I cant stand her anyway

Anonymous on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 3:25am

Yeah this looks like she's going to a friend's cocktail party...

syako on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 6:16am

Bahaha! Ew. Nice lipstick lol!?

356UIK on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 6:20am

ujum!? for some reason i think I've already seeing this!!!

any on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 6:35am

by the way i didnt like it!

any on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 6:36am

Those shoes and tights are horrible with the dress. She lost her mind wearing all that.

Symphonee on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 7:07am

The tights ruin it! She wears them with everything since she was pregnant! Maybe she got cellulite on her legs, and she's trying to hide it. LOL.

But I do like the dress. Not with the clutch or earings. And those shoes are not anything special.

hottinpink9021 on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 7:15am

I hate Jason Wu. She looks hideous.

fleurfairy on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 7:15am

Umm is she going to the Jr Prom or the costume institute gala? I get she tried to be diffrent by going shorter, but this isn't working it looks like she picked this up at edressme.com and the tights at target and had some great hair and makeup done :|

bastylefilegirl on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 7:36am

i love it!

sundaygreen on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 7:56am

Exactly what I was thinking, bastylefilegirl. Very Homecoming Queen.

mondaymoos on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 8:20am

WTF??

xosofiaxo on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 9:24am

She's ALWAYS wearing black tights. Bleh. Earrings are gorg though.

graytb2 on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 9:50am

i agree, the dress is beautiful, and the earrings are fabulous. but the tights have GOT to go...

Chelle_Belle on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 10:12am

A+ for the dress.

D- for effort.

It's the frigging Met Gala!

Kiki tee on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 11:27am

It is a little high school prom-ish, but I love that she didn't match her earrings to the dress.

jenzene on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 11:55am

I like the blue dress with the tights but the green earrings eww! but i love the clutch!

Chloe X on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 12:05pm

It's all pretty...wrong.

dm8bri on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 12:54pm

Boo! I hate everything

genesisrocks on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 1:17pm

Makeup yes the dress no!

aimeeb on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 2:32pm

the style of the dress just doesn't do her justice - i'm not the biggest fan of this look.

ilanac13 on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 2:33pm

I'd love it minus the tights...they completely ruin the look.

emalove on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 6:12pm

This dress is so cute, her hair & makeup look great. But WHY the tights ?!

tellmemorex2 on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 6:41pm

Does she know where she is? If you go to the Met's Costume Institute Gala, you show up to impress however risky it may be. She literally did nothing. That's how you dress to a cellphone launch.

supertramp on Tue, 05/05/2009 - 8:20pm

Too boring for the event! I mean for this kind of gala you have to tear it up! The tights also mess it up period.

Talldiva45 on Wed, 05/06/2009 - 3:45pm

Hmmmm..blue dress, raspberry lip color, and green earrings..a little too much for me. I like the opaque tights with it however.

Jessica Alba opted to wear a strapless ocean blue dress by Jason Wu to the Met festivities. The jewel-encrusted top looks good enough to eat, and so do the hot pink clutch and emerald earrings. However, what's up with the black tights? Do tell . . .
