Last night at the fancy 2008 Costume Institute Gala in New York City, the women arrived wearing fabulous gowns adorned with sensational accessories. Some of their beauty looks were favorable, and some left little to be desired. One of the trends I noticed was the semi-laid-back approach to hair. Don't get me wrong, I am sure every strand was supposed to look like that, but there was a lot more looseness as a collective than I've ever noticed at a red-carpet event. Below are eight messy updos from some of Hollywood's leading ladies. What do you think of these hairstyles?


















Emporio Armani
Canada Goose
Gianvito Rossi
it just looks messy. eva mendes' updo looks good, but the rest look like they rolled out of bed and did whatever to their hair.
1I love Hilary's stuff.
2I'm not a fun of the messy look in evening dress, it just doesn't go together for me.
3I actually really like it.
4I think Hilary Duff's looks the best, and I am a fan of Blake Lively's as well.
5i love the kate moss and hilary duff do.
6Best hair: Kate, Eva and Hilary. Molly should ease up on the nude lipper. And, oh yes, I could spare some change for 'poor/homeless' Mary-Kate.
7i agree, hillary duff looks nice too.
8hilary duff's hair stand out the best for me. all the ladies look fine, but why does Mary Kate look like she hasn't combed her hair in years
9mary-kate looks like a stoner, but i LOVE kate moss's do
10I love blake's 'do....
11Hilary, Eva, Blake and SMG!
them especially Hilary's
12I like them all except for whichever Olsen twin is pictured - her hair looks horrible and her makeup makes her look dead (and about 80). Not attractive.
13I think Hilary looks amazing. I like this look in general. I'm not so into Mary Kate's hair or Scarlett's, but maybe if they were wearing casual outfits I would like them more.
14Love the messy updo, as long as it's not TOO disheveled-looking like Mary-Kate's.
15I can live with this hehehehe!
16hilary duff
17Yeah, everybody but Mary-Kate looks great - she looks like she took a nap after hers was done.
18I like Hillary Duff's hair the best.
19What's happened to Mary Kate Olsen? SHe looks like a ghost
20I like them all except for the Olsen twin. Yikes!! Why doesn't she want to look pretty. She is a cute girl. It is as if she attempts to be unattractive. I don't get it.
21best=hillary
22Hilary, Blake and Molly's are fine.
23I love messy updos they give you that "i'm not trying to be sexy look" and that's what's sexy!
24hilary duff looked the best
25and kate moss and scarlett and sarah michelle
26Scarlette and Mary/Ashley? look like sh*t. Scarlet has worn that do before, why would she do this to us again???
I absolutely love Hilary's and Blakes. I love Hil's makeup a lot too.
27I really do like this look. Especially Hilary Duff's and Eva Mendez's updos.
28they all look the same for me...
