Even More Met 2011 Gala Looks
Some final looks from the Met Gala; all these extras and there are still some outfits that didn't even get a mention.
Doutzen Kroes took up half the red carpet but almost blended in to it in her Giambattista Valli design.
Eva Mendes made what feels like her first red carpet appearance in ages and covered up her curves in a blue one-shouldered design from Stella McCartney.
Russian models Natasha Poly and Sasha Pivovarova flanked Alexander Wang, posing on arrival.
Natasha looked smoking hot with her sultry eye make-up and scintillating low-backed dress from the designer.
Sasha was futuristic sexy (in a Fifth Element kinda way) in her silver Hervé Léger by Max Azria dress - the Spring/Summer 2011 dress costs $2,500 at shopbop.com.
Christina Ricci was stunning in her teeny-waisted Zac Posen gown.

Owen Benjamin Christina Ricci Engaged
Comedian Owen Benjamin and actress Christina Ricci are engaged. The pair met on the set of The House Bunny and have been dating since November 2008. The two appear in movie All’s Faire in Love, which is due out later this year.
Christina Ricci's gonna need an incredibly small bridal gown tailored to fit her diminutive size—as we've exclusively learned that the actress is engaged to her comedian boyfriend Owen Benjamin. (Calls to her reps, asking for official confirmation, have not yet been returned.)The two babes of way disproportionate height met on set of their movie All's Faire in Love and went public with their relationship last October. Might seem pretty quick to get hitched, but not in T-town!
Congrats to the cute couple! Now check out the deets of their engagement party, and how Ricci couldn't keep her cool at her own celebration:
Our source was partying at the Palihouse in West Hollywood last Saturday night with his pals next door to the Ricci/Benjamin bash. He briefly spoke to Owen himself, who confirmed it was his engagement party, while Ricci and the couple's cohorts were in the room engaging in all types of typical late-night H-wood hotel room behavior.
Our source lost an amigo at his shindig, and called the dude's phone looking for him. Looks like somebody snuck into the wrong fete, since it was Christina Ricci who answered on the other line!
Acting out-of-it from indulging in silliness more appropriate for a bachelorette party, not an engagement soiree, CR started screaming she would "call the f—-cking cops" if our source kept calling her—even 'tho it wasn't her phone! Who knew such feisty things came in tiny packages?
Eventually our source's friend returned, confirming an oddly behaving Christina indeed snatched his cell—which she eventually gave back. Maybe she learned a thing from Lindsay nabbing that fur coat?
Owen Benjamin currently stars in the the C-SPOT television series Gaytown, and will star in the upcoming CBS web series “Heckle U” where he plays a slacker who excels at heckling helpless opponents during men’s college basketball games. Web video fans may also know him from his series Owen Benjamin Presents on Crackle.
Ricci, who needs no introduction, previously dated Adam Goldberg.
