WWD/Steve EichnerGivenchy designer Riccardo Tisci was not only co-chair of the Met Gala, but he also dressed 13 women attending the event, including Beyonce, Madonna, Rooney Mara, Florence Welch, and Kim Kardashian. Kim's dress was intriguing, since it had matching gloves that were attached.

1. Octavia Spencer She famously told Ellen DeGeneres she was "triple Spanx-ing" at the SAG Awards in 2011. "Ohhh, Ellen. Let me tell you, I could not party that night, because I was being pinched in places I didn't know it was possible," she said.

2. Adele The singer will see Octavia's triple-threat and raise her one: At the Grammy Awards in June, she told the New York Post, "I had three or four pairs of Spanx on that night but I loved it."

3. Kelly Osbourne "Even if you're a skinny girl, Spanx are a must," she said to the Daily News. "Nobody wants to see your belly button through your dress."

Listen up, ladies: Wearing the same boring coat day in and day out is the fastest way to get sick of your fall wardrobe.
