Actress Piper Perabo arrives at the Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute Gala, Superheroes: Fashion and Fantasy, held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 5, 2008 in New York City. Perabo chooses a graphic black and white dress and wears dramatic crimson lipstick and up-swept mass of curls, not unlike that worn by Elsa Lanchester as the Bride of Frankenstein. Though Frankenstein is a novel, written by Mary Shelley, the character was also incorporated into a line of Comics by Marvel.
