Leading the glamour: Kim Kardashian wowed in a midnight blue structured gown, cinched in to emphasise her curves
Rihanna strikes a pose for the hoards of waiting photographers in her daring white Stella McCartney gown
Rihanna's sweeping statement gown featured a

elegant overall look with long sleeves and an embellished high neck
Good friends Rihanna and Cara Delevingne share a
joke on the red carpet, which they walked with their shared choice of
designer Stella
Stella's girls: Fashion designer McCartney
(pictured second right) dressed (L-R) Reese Witherspoon, Cara, Rihanna
and Kate Bosworth for the prestigious event
Naughty: Cara Delevingne was seen goofing around with Rihanna - and at one point they even started grabbing each other's bottoms

Co-ordinated couple: The Beckhams opted for a
fashion throwback, once again matching their white outfits, though with
considerably more success than in the 90s

The red carpet was a sea of sweeping ball dresses, with stars such as co-chair Sarah Jessica Parker, Karolina Kurkova, Katie Holmes, Karlie Kloss, Taylor Swift, Claire Danes and Suki Waterhouse paying homage to the theme of the exhibition in romantic, full-length gowns.
Kim Kardashian redeemed herself after last year's fashion fail (who can forget that aggressive peony print disaster by Riccardo Tisci last year?) in a midnight-blue structured gown by Lanvin.
It was a fitting tribute to late British-born designer James, who was known for his highly structured aesthetic.
Rihanna too, looked unusually demure in a full-length, white dress with daring cut-outs, designed by Stella McCartney. The singer accessorised with white Louboutins - and Cara Delevingne, who stayed by her side at all times.
Cara looked slick in McCartney’s tailored trousers, which have become her signature look.
Fellow Brits Victoria and David Beckham looked the perfect fashion pair: she in one of her own designs, a sophisticated, minimal full-length white gown, and he in a crisp white jacket.
In her element: As a big fan of any vintage or
retro looks, the theme was perfect for Taylor Swift who needed a hand
with her Oscar de la Renta dress

The centre of attention: Photographers scrambled
to get photos of the A-listers, such as Sarah Jessica, as they arrived
on the red carpet

white gloves and had her dark blonde locks in an elaborate updo with
flowers pinned into it

bright satin Topshop dresses but the pair had fully regained their
composure by the time they hit the red carpet

in her silver Michael Kors ruched gown which she twirled around in for
photographers
What was she thinking?: Rita Ora did not make a good impression in a Donna Karan Atelier creation which she couldn't pull off

Stewart's frock was out of this world in a bad way

announced she and her husband have decided to separate, both chose
dresses with emphasis on their cleavage

gown with black piping and had a suit jacket slung over her shoulders,

gorgeous sight in a white frock by Donna Karan Atelier while Kylie

It
seems like the best thing in the world. You think, "Oh my god, it's
going to be so glamorous and amazing, and you're going to see all these
famous people,"' she said last year.
And
then you get there, and it's so hot, and so crowded, and everyone's
pushing you. This year it was really intense. It wasn't fun!'
Despite bad-mouthing the event, the 41-year-old was invited to this year's ball but declined the invitation.
Definitely not vintage glamour: Imogen Poots (L)
and Gabrielle Union were more concerned with showing slivers of their
stomachs than anything else, so did just that for the night

Anna
became co-chair of the event in 1995 and it has been a star-studded
affair ever since, with celebrity guests paired with fashion designers
who dress them for the evening.
