The best ever Met Gala looks — from Princess Diana to Rihanna

In 1996, Princess Diana caused a scandal when she arrived in a blue satin slip dress by Dior. She was, undoubtedly, belle of the ball. As Bob Morris reported in the New York Times that year: “In a midnight blue and black lace gown by John Galliano (the newly appointed designer for the House of Dior), she went into dinner in the museum’s restaurant with Liz Tilberis, the editor in chief of Harper’s Bazaar. The rest of the guests, including Calvin Klein, Bill Blass, Madame Jacques Chirac and Christy Turlington (whose face was the model for the Costume Institute’s mannequins), followed like bedazzled serfs.” It set the night up as the newsworthy display of new fashions that it remains today.
