Stars Sparkle at Met Costume Institute Gala

It was a festival of fashion as Hollywood's A-list hit the red carpet for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's annual Costume Institute Gala. ET's Steven "Cojo" Cojocaru was front and center for all the fun as everyone from Oprah to Jennifer Lopez to Anne Hathaway to Sarah Jessica Parker donned their most glamorous duds for fashion's big night.

Event co-chair Oprah felt like "Cinderella going to the ball." Her first time at the annual consortium of couture, she said, "This is such a dream come true for me because years ago when I thought I might be the marrying kind, I always thought, 'If I walk down the aisle, it's going to be in an Oscar de la Renta gown.'"

As always, the fashion forward Sarah Jessica brought sexiness to the city in a Halston Heritage gown. Proving diamonds really are a girl’s best friend, she was bedazzling in Fred Leighton jewels. Relinquishing the fashion throne to Vogue royalty, she said, "Anna [Wintour] is the belle of the ball."
