Joined by the American fashion designer himself, Anna Kendrick earned herself a solid spot at the top of our Met Gala best-dressed list with the stunning blue Derek Lam net dress she selected for the event.

But, after taking one quick look at the dress, we were instantly reminded of Rose Byrne’s similar dress at the 2016 Tribeca Film Festival.

The 30-year-old exuded class and sophistication in this deep blue embellished gown from Derek Lam, which she wore with Effy jewelry, Brian Atwood “Tribeca” sandals, and a Rauwolf emerald gem ikat clutch in arctic blue and silver.

2. Rose Byrne in Derek Lam
The 36-year-old opted for a comparable design by the same American fashion designer, who previously worked for Michael Kors before establishing his own brand in 2003.

Rose chose a deep blue dress that closely resembled Anna’s but with a high neck and a fit-and-flare silhouette for a distinct twist.
She accessorized with Tejen earrings and gold pumps. Who do you think wore the Derek Lam blue net dress better?
