Need another pair-up to look forward to this spring? Zooey Deschanel will be partnering with Tommy Hilfiger to design a capsule collection of cheeky yet chic looks, the bulk of which will be comprised of dresses. The collection—entitled To Tommy, From Zooey—is a little bit Mod circa the Sixties and slightly nautical in vibe, combining to create a “Modical” feel, according to Deschanel. As for the pair’s previous pair-ups, the designer dressed Deschanel for last year’s Met Ball, outfitting her in a seersucker frock.

It’s a good day to be Anna Wintour! The Metropolitan Museum of Art announced that they’ll be renaming the space occupied by The Costume Institute as The Anna Wintour Costume Center.

Alicia Keys took a moment from the blinding paps’ flashes in the front row of the Jason Wu show to wax poetic about the designer… Do you know Jason?
Yes! He styled me for the Met Ball and we instantly connected. Our spirits are very similar. He bubbles over with personality. How do you feel when you wear him? It’s elegant and ladylike with a bit of a twist.

Last night, Jessica Stam was canary yellow-clad, punkily-coiffured (inspired by the Met Ball, love?), and ready to discuss fishy matters… Where will we find you on the Fourth of July?
My boyfriend’s family usually throws a big party! I’ll probably just be with them in Connecticut. What is your favorite summer activity?
You can definitely find me on the beach.

She made it through the wilderness…Madonna does her best Madonna impersonation at last night’s Billboard Music Awards in Las Vegas. The 54-year-old wore Givenchy haute couture by Riccardo Tisci and took home three awards for Top Dance Album, Top Touring Artist, and Top Dance Artist. Earlier this month she attended the Met Ball and showed off those legs in another Givenchy number.

We’re still getting unseen shots of the Met Ball activities, and we’re going to share just few more because we know it’s a bit overkill. Two looks that we’d like your eyeballs to see and discuss are sister act Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. Ashley’s in Christian Dior Haute Couture (though we swear that Cher has been looking all over the house for this Bob Mackie relic since Sunday)
