Jessica Alba - MET Costume Institute Gala 2009

Jessica Alba hits the “Model as Muse: Embodying Fashion” Costume Institute Gala at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City on Monday (May 4).

The 28-year-old Fantastic actress paired her Jason Wu dress with custom-made Bruno Frisoni for Jason Wu. The shoes, based on the design from Frisoni’s Fall 09 collection were revised with a new color palate specially for Wu. The 4″ heel with platform base and overlapping elastic straps is a signature of the French shoe designer.

Alba finished off her look with Van Cleef & Arpels jewels: “Cotillon” earrings with 51.08 carats of cabochon drop Zambian emeralds and diamonds, the 1967 Estate “Natte” bracelet of 44 carats of diamonds, a 1930 Estate bracelet with 8 carats of diamonds and the “Folie des Pres” ring and bracelet of diamonds and pink and mauve sapphires.
