You Have To See Clare Danes' Gown With The Lights Off

 

Claire Danes, red carpet vet, has worn her fair share of stunning dresses. But none has ever been this magical.

Danes was truly the belle (er, Cinderella) of the ball at the Met Gala Monday night, floating around the carpet in a stunning pale blue ball gown with both designer Zac Posen and husband Hugh Dancy in tow.

But lest you think this was just any ordinary ball gown, once the lights went out, it transformed faster than you can say "bibbity bobbity boo."
Danes' gown, which was custom made by Posen, turned into a magical, sparkly, glow-in-the-dark piece of artwork in the dark, thanks to the fiber optics woven into the organza it was made with. The look was a perfect choice for the theme of the event, which examined the relationship between fashion and technology.


Posen teased out who was wearing the dress with a number of Instagram posts before making the big reveal later in the evening.
No word yet on any lost shoes or whether or not her ride turned into a pumpkin at midnight.

National Assembly broke, borrows to pay workers

Image
Cash-strapped National Assembly has resorted to bank facilities to pay its staff their monthly salaries and allowances.But the facilities do not include the controversial running cost paid to lawmakers, as well as the salaries and allowances for their aides. About N4.5 billion is spent on the running cost of lawmakers in the two houses of the National Assembly. The sum of N13.5 million is paid to each senator while a member of the House of Representatives gets a little above half of this. The balance is paid out to legislative aides. In anger last week, legislative aides rose in protest against the non-payment of their salaries and allowances. Several sources yesterday confirmed the resort to bank overdrafts to pay salaries of “strictly National Assembly staff,” but the Director of Information to the National Assembly, Mr. Ishaku Adamu Dibal, said he was not aware of the development that had happened at least twice in the past. It was gathered that August and September...
