Art, fashion, and entertainment collided to create some awe-inspiring gowns! Two fashion themes from the night that we couldn't help but to fall in love with: Black and white ensembles, and huge, over the top skirts. Hopefully you found as much inspiration as we did for your next costume design! We'll be over here trying to figure out how they got those voluminous skirts to scallop ....
