This year's Met Gala dress code, "Fashion Is Art," left guests and designers with a lot of room for interpretation. As a result, the best looks on the red carpet were those that took advantage of that opportunity with maximum creativity and clever nods to famous artworks (and, sometimes, nipples ).
