10. Coco Rocha

Always one to take a risk, the supermodel certainly didn’t hold back with this multicolor Jean Paul Gaultier Haute Couture gown (though we wouldn’t have minded a more exciting shoe).

9. Behati Prinsloo

There’s no denying that the future Mrs. Adam Levine looks super sexy in this sheer and skintight Emilio Pucci gown, but we feel like we saw something strikingly similar last month on model Miranda Kerr.

8. Chanel Iman

The beauty has been on a minimal, spaghetti strap gown run recently, but she looked oh-so-chic in a simple white Calvin Klein slip dress at the annual event.

7. Elettra Wiedemann

Showing off her sexy shoulders and stunning curves, the model rocked a simple red gown with a cool neckline and amazing slicked-back hair.

6. Jessica Hart

Hart went the cool girl route, ditching an elegant gown for sleek trousers, a badass feathered coat, a deep red lip, and rock 'n' roll hair.

5. Ajak Deng

The gorgeous model simply sparkled in her sequined Kaufmanfranco gown, giving us a glimpse of her impossibly perfect body with a bit of sheer paneling.

4. Erin Heatherton

Not that the front of her glittering one-shoulder gown wasn’t stunning on its own, but the back of Heatherton’s gown — or lack thereof — is what truly stole the show.

3. Karolina Kurkova

Sure, she doesn’t have to use cut-outs and thigh-high slits to prove she’s sexy, but Kurkova looks so good in this Giorgio Armani number that we don’t even mind.

2. Karlie Kloss

It doesn’t matter that this little black dress isn’t exactly gala material, because Kloss rocks the simple look so effortlessly that she’s at the top of our best-dressed list by default.

1. Lily Aldridge

The other models may have looked amazing, but nothing could rival the ethereal, all-white Rosie Assoulin number Aldridge showed up in last night. As for that necklace: Where can we get it?
