FAMOUS PEOPLE LOVE to dress up in fashionable rig-outs and we love to watch them do just that.

Even though awards seasons has wrapped up those in celebville still need an excuse to sashay around in designer gowns that cost more than a down payment on your first home.

Thankfully, the prestigious Met Ball is here to sort them out.

A fundraiser for the Costume Institute of New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art (MoMA) the annual event is seen as a bit more out-there than your typical red-carpet shindig.

This year’s theme was Punk : Chaos to Couture and it yielded interesting results, the best of which we’ve rounded up for you.

We’ll show no mercy. Promise.
