Costume Institute Gala Rewind: 2008, Superheroes: Fashion and Fantasy

It wasn't a great year for theme inspired dresses, but many designers consolidated their presence as designers such as Proenza Schouler, as worn by Tory Burch above.

Rodarte too joined the ranks of the high profile designers, worn here by avant supporter Dr. Lisa Airan.

Others looked ravishing as usual, Gisele Bundchen looking effortless wearing Versace.

And Christina Ricci in Givenchy Haute Couture designed by Riccardo Tisci.
