Stars prep for chicest Met Gala yet

This could be the chicest Met Ball ever. With the theme of society designer Charles James, a dress code of white tie and a whopping $25,000 price tag for each ticket, stars are feeling the pressure to look their most glamorous.

Dior face Jennifer Lawrence is donning that designer (bien sûr!), Katie Holmes will go for full-on princess mode in Marchesa, Emmy Rossum is expected to be a classic column in Carolina Herrera, and Hollywood It girl Lupita Nyong’o will stun in Prada.

Meanwhile, Jessica Lange may top everyone, not by wearing Marc Jacobs but by bringing him as her date! And never before has so much attention been paid to the guys, who will be preening in their pearly best.

“Designer white ties are in short supply suddenly on Madison Avenue and even online,” a source says. “From the Calvin, Armani to the Tie Bar, white ties have noticed a significant uptick.”
