Celebs shine in punk-chic style

The Met Ball was held at the Museum of Costume of Art in New York on Monday night. The event, also known as the Met Gala or the Costume Institute Gala, celebrates the annual opening of the Metropolitan Museum's fashion exhibit at the Costume Institute. Vogue magazine hosts the extravaganza, which is known as one of the top social events of the year. The celebrity-filled event always has a different theme, this year's being "PUNK: Chaos to Couture".

And dress punk they did. Stars from material girl Madonna to former Victoria's Secret model Gisele Bundchen took the phrase "dress to impress" to a whole new level, all the while embracing the edgy theme. The best-dressed list is endless, filled with stars like notorious good girls Anne Hathaway and Taylor Swift. The usually appropriately dressed celebs showed some edge; Hathaway in a vintage Valentine dress from 1992 and platinum blonde locks, and Swift in a rock n' roll-themed J Mendel number.
This year's theme was all about having fun with fashion and going all out, rather than playing it safe for fear of ending up on worst-dressed lists or EI's Fashion Police. I couldn't possibly think of anything more fun to dress for.
Over-the-top gowns and shoes were a hit on celebrities such as Beyoncé Knowles and Sarah Jessica Parker. Knowles showed up in a black and gold Givenchy floor-length dress and matching thigh-high boots, and the Sex
and the City star donned tartan plaid over-the-knee heels, a Giles Deacon ball gown and Phillip Treacy hat.
Blacks and metallic dresses were a hit on the red carpet, as was making a statement. Stars such as Nicole Richie and Miley Cyrus went so far as to show up with crazy punk-chic hair, if there ever was a thing. While most celebs took the theme to heart, there were a few who looked anything but punk. Infamous Anna Wintour and soon-to-be-mother Kim Kardashian wore floral, and Blake Lively wore an elegant mint and black Gucci gown. While everyone looked great at the number-one fashion event of the year, those who embraced the theme blew everyone else out of the water.

STOCKHOLM - You can thank ABBA for the music. And so much more.
New ABBA museum features memorabilia, interactive sets
A museum devoted to the pop superstars opening in Stockholm on Tuesday will celebrate the band's long list of hits. But it will also show off paraphernia, including the helicopter featured on the cover of its "Arrival" album, a star-shaped guitar and dozens of glitzy costumes the Swedish band wore at the height of its 1970s fame.
Some gear is definitely not on show. With a smirk on his face, band member Bjorn Ulveaeus says certain items are "mysteriously ... forever lost," conceding only that among them are "embarrassing" "tight costumes he wore when he was "slightly overweight." He declined to say more.
Some 40 sets of the trademark shiny flares, platform boots and knitted hats are on display in the museum. But visitors can also see digital images of what they would
But the museum also shows a less glamorous, more everyday side of the history of a band that has sold 400 million records and consistently topped the charts in the decade after winning the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest with "Waterloo." The band — made up of Ulvaeus, Anni-Frid Lyngstad, Benny Andersson and Agnetha Faltskog — started out as two married couples, and continued performing after their divorces, before eventually drifting apart in the early 1980s.
look like in costumes, record music videos and sing such hits as "Dancing Queen" and "Mamma Mia" on a stage next to hologram images of the band members. A telephone also has been placed in a corner and ABBA members have promised to "Ring, Ring" and speak to visitors occasionally.
The collection includes models of the band's kitchen, a cottage where they used to compose their songs and the small, rustic park venues Bjorn and Benny played when they first met in the 1960s.
Visitors can listen to the band members' recollections and one section is dedicated to the break-up and the story of the divorces.
"It (touches) on those things as well because we think they are important in telling the story," Ulvea said.
The museum also includes a Swedish Music Hall of Fame, detailing other Swedish artists.
It was a long time coming, eagerly anticipated by fans and visitors to the Swedish capital, Ulvaeus said they needed the time to reflect on their careers. "You need some distance, you need perspective to be able to tell a story like that and I guess you can say that we have perspective now, 30 years on," he told reporters.
Outside the newly built wooden museum, scores of international ABBA fans gathered Monday, singing the band's songs and hoping to get a glimpse of their idols arriving for a gala dinner. All were expected except Faltskog, who is currently promoting her comeback album "A" in Britain.
