Jessica Stam posed for photographers on the red carpet at the 2012 Met Gala Ball, also known as the night of 1,000 dresses, held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on Monday (May 7, 2012) in New York City. This year’s Costume Institute Gala Benefit celebrates the opening of the Schiaparelli and Prada: Impossible Conversations exhibition.
The 26-year-old Canadian model, who was the guest of French fashion house Christian Dior, wore a sleeveless pale blue John Galliano for Christian Dior Haute Couture Fall 2006 collection evening gown featuring a structured bodice with gold detailing and a mermaid train. The stunning floor length dress was accessorized with Lorraine Schwartz jewels including chandelier earrings and stacked encrusted bangles and metallic peep-toe heels.
