Hamish Bowles panting for punk

Hamish Bowles is looking forward to tonight’s punk-themed Metropolitan Museum Ball, otherwise known as the Fashion Oscars, for several reasons — but mostly to see Vivienne Westwood’s outfit. “I will be looking out for Vivienne [Westwood] and Zandra Rhodes, but Vivienne for sure. She’s the godmother, grandmother, the evil genius of punk,” the international editor at large of Vogue told us at the Cinema Society party for “What Maisie Knew” at Gallow Green. He added, “I’m always thrilled to see how people take a theme and run with it. Whether it’s going to be very subtle or overt or oblique or literal.” Others expected at the ball include a host of top designers and stars including Jennifer Lawrence, Jennifer Lopez, Gwyneth Paltrow, Marion Cotillard, Debbie Harry, Emma Roberts, Jessica Alba and top models Kate Upton and Gisele Bundchen.
