Madge Has An Edge… Still!

Some shrieked “oh no” when the style icon we know and love turned up last night to the annual Costume Institute Gala in NYC. But Madonna still managed to upstage every major celeb in attendance.
No one should ever criticize her for trying (well you could have a go if you like), however as ‘our’ Madge – now in her ‘nifty fifties’ turned up looking like a high-octane version of SATC’s Carrie Bradshaw in her final hours of life, pumped with Xanax washed down with one too many Piña Coladas…
The material girl pulled off what could have been one of the biggest fashion faux pas of her career and one could only shout bravo!
Jaws dropped as she strutted up the red carpet wearing the bizarre outfit complete with turquoise headpiece at the star-studded event. It was a stunning, if not a pure genius fashion moment for her and Marc Jacobs, who designed the Louis Vuitton ensemble.
Posing arm-in-arm with good friend Guy Oseary and her 22-year-old model ‘toy’ Jesus Luz , the queen of pop mingled with the likes of Jerry Seinfeld, Kate Moss and Victoria Bekham as she tried to put her recent troubles aside for the night.
The gala evening was held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and marked the venue’s ‘The Model as Muse’ spring 2009 exhibition.
