Where will you find Kate Moss, Beyoncé, Katie Holmes and the Beckhams all in one room? Try the New York Metropolitan of Art\'s annual Costume Institute gala, and you won\'t be disappointed. And if the dress code is, "Come as your favorite superhero", then you know it\'s going to be one super-duper fashion extravaganza, to boot. Co-chaired by Anna Wintour, Giorgio Armani, George Clooney and Julia Roberts, the event, which was held to celebrate the opening of the Institute\'s exhibition, Superheroes: Fashion and Fantasy (running until September), it made the Oscars look like a D-list event full of has-beens.
