We're calling it a four-way styling tie when it comes to last night's Veuve Clicquot-hosted Tate Americas Foundation Artists Dinner in NYC.

We're calling it a four-way styling tie when it comes to last night's Veuve Clicquot-hosted Tate Americas Foundation Artists Dinner in NYC. Anne Hathaway — bleach-blond pixie cut still intact — went with a leg-baring soft pink Givenchy mini and gold Jimmy Choo sandals; Ciara stunned in a nude long-sleeved gown; Sarah Jessica Parker wore a vintage floral number and loaded up on a very cool mix of jewels (Fred Leighton earrings, a Repossi turquoise ring, and a Fendi cuff and rings); and Alexa Chung opted for a dark two-toned strapless cocktail dress with ankle-strap pumps. Were you more wowed by the dramatic floor-skimming options or drawn to the leggier looks? Weigh in below!

As the Star Trek Into Darkness promo tour unfolds, we're privy to double the leading-lady glamour, all thanks to Zoe Saldana and Alice Eve. Zoe's latest ensemble — a floral-printed Antonio Berardi suit in a black and white palette — is far less fancy than her red-carpet styles, but just as impressive. Before that, at the Mexico City premiere, Zoe stunned in a white Elie Saab jumpsuit, while Alice took a darker approach in her sheer Gucci LBD.

Gwyneth Paltrow Reveals Her Favorite Store — You May Be Surprised

Gwyneth Paltrow is a force unstoppable, with a new cookbook, new movie (ahem, Iron Man 3), another Met Gala appearance, and now a Meet the Developer talk under her belt.

Gwyneth Paltrow is a force unstoppable, with a new cookbook, new movie (ahem, Iron Man 3), another Met Gala appearance, and now a Meet the Developer talk under her belt. While last night's talk at the Apple store in SoHo centered around the new Goop City Guides app, we still squeezed in a few questions about — what else? — fashion and shopping. Keep reading to see what she had to say.

POPSUGAR: One aspect of Goop is shopping, and being online so much, do you find yourself shopping online more than going to stores?

Gwyneth Paltrow: I do shop online more. I also think because I don't have a lot of time to go shopping, it's so great to go on a well-edited website, like SSense, for example, which is my favorite current shopping website. They've done a whole stage of the curation already, so it's easy. You put your kids to bed, you have a glass of wine, and you're like, "Let me see." My husband is like, "Whaaaat!"

From Red Carpet to Afterparty: The Best Met Gala Quick-Change Artists

This year's Met Gala attendees gave us good reason to think two outfits are better than one.

This year's Met Gala attendees gave us good reason to think two outfits are better than one. And who can blame Ashley Greene for trading her dramatic Marchesa gown for something a little shorter come afterparty? Those iconic Met stairs (read: not ornate-dress friendly) alone could prompt an outfit change, but we think it gives this A-list set another chance to show off one more great look before night's end. Case in point: Allison Williams's surprising dark and sexy twofer, courtesy of Altuzarra. Or how about Madonna's Givenchy Haute Couture tartan and fishnets getup that turned into just fishnets all over? The beauty of seeing fashion's finest is actually seeing them at their finest, and that means outfit changes galore. Which stars were bona fide Met Gala quick-change artists? Find out right this way.

As the face of Balenciaga's Florabotanica fragrance, you may have guessed that Kristen Stewart would wear the label on the Met Gala red carpet. But leave it to her to keep us guessing! The Snow White and the Huntsman 2 actress went with a bordeaux lace-embroidered jumpsuit, studded pumps, and a gold square box clutch — all by Stella McCartney. Her coordinating eye makeup and slicked-back hair finished off the moody look. Are you a fan of her not-so-punk choice?

If anyone could be called the epitome of "punk-rock sexy" at the Met Gala, Gisele Bündchen would certainly be the frontrunner for the title. Her leggy, skin-baring look — courtesy of a chainmail-infused Anthony Vaccarello LBD — was only enhanced by a serious pair of black spike sandals. Her crystal-encrusted chain bracelets, rings, and side-swept hair finished off the whole look. All things considered, how did Gisele do?

The 2013 Met Gala best-dressed set could easily be likened to the fashion Olympics, and this year's Punk: Chaos to Couture exhibition turnout made it harder than ever to pick only five gold-medal contenders. Beyoncé Knowles spared no head-turning detail in a custom Givenchy Haute Couture flame-embroidered gown; Gwyneth Paltrow stood out in a covered-up hot pink Valentino number; Rooney Mara played the edgy card in a custom Givenchy Haute Couture gown, complete with floral embroidery, zippers, ruffles, and a split-front opening; Jennifer Lawrence chose ladylike Dior (and that Jennifer Behr netted veil!); and Katie Holmes stunned in a downright ethereal custom Calvin Klein creation. It's a close one, but it's time for you to declare a best-dressed winner of the night.

While Michelle Williams's Met Gala look may not be exactly "punk," it certainly reminded us how well she can wear the classics. Her black strapless Saint Laurent gown showed off just the right amount of leg via a romantic high-low hem, while her black T-strap pumps supplied the ladylike polish. Her Fred Leighton jewels — including a 19th-century diamond tiara — and quirkier Olympia Le-Tan book clutch rounded out the ensemble. What do you think?

Nina Dobrev knows how to work a red carpet, and tonight's Met Gala was no exception. Her punked-out look meant forgoing the usual body-con gowns in favor of a custom black Monique Lhuillier jumpsuit-meets-dress. The corset bodice — complete with leather harness — gave way to a see-through gauzy skirt and patent black pumps. The Vampire Diaries starlet edged up the look further with Kimberly McDonald jewels and a slightly tougher hairstyle. How did she do?

Did Keira Knightley Recycle Her Dress For Her Big Day?

Keira Knightley married James Righton in France on Saturday — reportedly in a Rodarte dress she's worn before!

Keira Knightley married James Righton in France on Saturday — reportedly in a Rodarte dress she's worn before! Many assumed that the British beauty would wear head-to-toe Chanel for her big day, especially considering she has been the face of Coco Mademoiselle since 2006 and recently starred in Karl Lagerfeld's short film, Once Upon a Time, as Coco Chanel. But according to sources, Keira actually picked a blush-hued Rodarte tulle dress for the occasion, a look she previously wore to a pre-BAFTA party in 2008.

While she may have gone with Rodarte for the dress, she didn't forgo Chanel altogether. She styled her girlier wedding dress with a chic Chanel tweed jacket and soft-pink ballet flats, also by the label. And in true Keira style, she accessorized with the bare bohemian minimum: a delicate pendant necklace, a floral wreath, and sunglasses. Now, click on for a closer look at the fashionable newlyweds here.

Style SOS: How to Battle Oil Stains and Win

Let's just cut to the chase — oil stains don't have to be the death knell of your soiled clothes.

Let's just cut to the chase — oil stains don't have to be the death knell of your soiled clothes. In fact, it's pretty easy to rid those pesky grease spots from your favorite tees and jeans with our quick five-step SOS drill. Just remember: at the moment of stain disaster, try not to panic, don't despair, and definitely avoid rubbing at the stain. Do those three things at the outset and you're already off to a running start. We promise, there's life after olive oil spillage and butter-related crimes, and our tips below will not only help you combat those oil stains, they'll lead you straight to stain removal victory.

  1. Pre-pretreat it. Before the real battle begins, cover the stain with cornstarch and let it soak for at least 30 minutes. Then, simply shake off the excess powder before heading to step two.
  2. Shout it out. There's a reason why this brand has become a household name — Shout is awesome. It literally saves (clothes') lives. In regards to oil stains, you want to spray the area with a solvent-based stain remover, like Shout Advanced Stain Remover Trigger Spray ($5), and gently blot.

The Met Gala is tonight, and the style set has already descended upon NYC in preparation of fashion's biggest event. And last night's party scene is proof (times three) that we're in for a jam-packed red carpet come Monday.

Not to be outdone, Moda Operandi and Net-a-Porter both held swanky affairs, playing host to the likes of Karolína Kurková, Kate Bosworth, and a polka-dot-clad Miranda Kerr. It was, to say the least, an evening of epic style proportions. See who wore what on the pre-Met Gala party scene, right this way.
