2009 Whitney Gala

The 2009 Whitney Museum Gala was held this past Monday and of course stars celebs were in attendance, looking for attention. It was a regular festival of Boobs 'n' Versace.

Donatella Versace in...Versace, of course.

Taylor Momsen wore Versace as well, looking far older than her age. She's like 16, isn't she?

Shakira, also in Versace, looked hot. Gorgeous dress.

What's going on with Patty Kim's right breast? Andy why couldn't she comb her hair for the occasion?

Speaking of breasts, Nigel Barker's wife Cristen is about to have a wardrobe malfunction....

And Monique Pean's too-tight dress is smashing her boobs in a horribly unflattering way.

Emanuel Ungaro "artistic advisor" Lindsay Lohan, over-processed and possibly stoned, looked like hell. As did her first collection with Ungaro. Do these glittery fashion people ever think? Seriously.

Mischa Barton looked uncharacteristically...normal.... The Versace dress makes her look oddly assembled, however.

Lake Bell looked fab in her slinky red dress. So why did she look so pissed-off? Oh wait, that's supposed to be a sexy look....

Yet another on the Versace bandwagon, Jennifer Hudson, looked lovely in that color. A shame her makeup was so harsh.

Whitney Gala 2008

The Whitney Museum held its annual gala and studio party on October 20th, hosted by Donatella Versace, and attended by celebrity and socialite alike.

Christina Ricci showed up in an Atelier Versace gown. Not quite sure how I feel about it. The black motif on the front reminds me of some sort of goth apron. The big oval motif on the skirt kinda also screams "womb!" The daring back that shows off Ricci's tramp stamp is...well, trampy. But I guess that's the point.

Actress Byrdie Bell rolled around in a piece of fabric, stapled it on one side, and called it a dress. It is interesting fabric, however.

Likewise, socialite Julie Macklowe rolled around in a pile of dirty insulation, added a belt, and ran out of the house.

(Hey - I wanna be a "socialite." That means "does nothing but the occasional charity work rich lady-who-lunches," right? But I want to be one with better taste in evening gowns.)
