Now that all the glitz and hype around the Met Gala this week has calmed down a little bit, I thought I’d concentrate my eye on one lady who really captured my attention at the event.
Elizabeth Banks stormed the event in dividing opinions in a bold Mary Katrantzou gown. For many it was too much, but I expected no less from Ms Banks.
Pre-2012/2011 Elizabeth Banks was on my radar for two things, her comedic turns in Scrubs/30 Rock and her recurring roles in Rom-Coms and silly Comedies like ‘Definitely, Maybe’, ‘Role Models’ and ‘Zack and Miri make a porno’.
This year she burst in the forefront of the fashion pack after her impressive run during The Hunger Games press tour. Looking back at her red carpet choices, there’s definitely no static formula. She loves colour, she isn’t afraid of bold prints and very much embraces textures and daring architecture. In short she’s a fashion chameleon.
When it comes to her side walk style, she’s much slicker and chic-er, favouring a dark palette of colours and classic accessories. But that doesn’t make her boring. Whether in Versace or Marc Jacobs you know she’ll work her look and is for sure someone you want to keep an eye out for (especially with two more Hunger Games movies to come! Yay more press tours!).
