Manus+x+Machina+Fashion+Age+Technology+Costume-zendaya-coleman-michael-kors

Manus+x+Machina+Fashion+Age+Technology+Costume-beyonce-givenchy
We were all in formation waiting for Beyoncé to hit the red carpet! She did so in latex Givenchy: I needed a ponytail or bun here to let the dress completely play centerstage.
Manus+x+Machina+Fashion+Age+Technology+Costume-david-laport-solange-knowles

The Wests have arrived in Balmain! Kim’s futuristic silver gown was resplendent, but I wasn’t too keen on Kanye’s embellished jean jacket and destructed denim…the icy blue contacts were dope, but didn’t do much for his look.
Manus+x+Machina+Fashion+Age+Technology+Costume-nicki-minaj

Blake Lively was pretty in pink, wearing a strapless Burberry gown in a blush hue&dmdash;accented with a floral train. This was way sweeter than anything I’ve seen the heritage brand design!
