Always in vogue, Zendaya looked STUNNING in a crimson silk faille 2-piece ensemble comprised of a narrow skirt with an asymmetric hand draped bubble waist and bandeau bra from Vera Wang. A delicate necklace and bracelets added to the bling affair of her look. With radiant glam and edgy corn braids, she rounded off her look.

ANYA TAYLOR-JOY

Be it any soiree, Anya is never the one to disappoint with her sartorial statements. For the gala, the actress opted for a custom violet moiré peplum jacket over a bustier cocktail dress from Oscar de la Renta. The animal-print gloves and hat added a pop of print to her monotone attire. Keeping the Barbie element intact was the fishnet and a detailed glam with bold lips and romantic curls.

EMILY BLUNT

Hostess for the night, Emily graced the soiree in a popping orange suit from Christopher John Rogers. Taking the shirtless blazer route, she accessorized her feisty neckline with a layered necklace

CARA DELEVINGNE

Cara opted for a feisty velvet blazer that gave us a peek at her toned torso and teamed with a velvet skirt. She accessorized her all-black look with layered gold chains and hoops. On the glam front, the diva opted for shimmery eyes, a nude pout and a neatly tied back bun.

EMILY RATAJKOWSKI

Emily made a rather casual-chic appearance in Miu Miu for the gala. Tad underdressed for the soiree? What are your thoughts?
