The MET Gala Discussion Thread - An Unfiltered Discussion of Fashion

My only reaction to this photo of Beyonce's (allegedly evil) daughter Blue Ivy Carter is that she's being effortlessly upstaged by the tubby middle-aged photographer on the steps behind her.

You can't buy charisma.
 
This year there seems to be a running theme of anatomical pieces, especially hands.

I really like the Gwendolyn face. A nice touch of 'anatomical' while being unique.
The bulge muscle suit was a choice.
I like the space age psychedelic suit, probably would like it more in a different theme year, but it's kind of cool.
I don't like either of the skelly hands, but I love the floating headdress of Lisa.
Janelle Monáe looking amazing as always in Christian Siriano. I honestly love this so much. I’m reading it as a take on art in the digital age.

I like this. It's not just "creativity in the digital age" but the rj45 cables are high up on her head which just screams "trying to stay above" or "drowning in the digital circus".
There seems to be a subtle secondary theme of fucking pirates

This pirate theme is not cutting it. Nobody really nailed it for me.

Edit: MADONNA LOOKS INSANE. Kind of love it.

I love this. If this is "pirate theme" this is what I'm fucking talking about. The dark deep murky waters hiding horrors beyond comprehension. The troubled waters being held by sirens on the open sea. The ship could be massive in scale, but is over shadowed by the scale of the sea. What a fucking killer!
 
Kim was wearing Allen Jones and Whitaker Malem. It’s an uninspired orange thing View attachment 8958741
Kylie is probably the best dressed sister in her Schiaparelli

Kendall Jenner looks nice too in Zac PosenView attachment 8958852
Interestingly, all three girls seem to be channeling Venus De Milo
Kim: Barbie wanna be. She will never fit into that Barbie car looking like that.
Kylie: looks like a zombie about to eat a face.
Kendall: dress made to look like one tit is slipping out at all times.
 
Luke Evans in Palomo Spain is the lost member of the Village People. I don’t know who he is but I would bet good money this leather daddy is a flaming faggot

When Luke Evans first broke through with the Fast & Furious and Hobbit movies he claimed to be engaged to a woman. He denies this now.

He recently made his Broadway debut as Frank-N-Furter in the Rocky Horror revival.

Ayo Edebiri has been going to A-list red carpets for years now, why does she always insist on projecting such nervous nellie "oh golly gee lil old me wearing this lil old dress" energy? Stop! You're a celebrity.

I hate it when they do that shit. Stop being humble, you’re at an exclusive event that costs tens of thousands of dollars to attend in an outfit that a world class designer literally made for you. Be a diva. This is the time and place
 
Surprised to see the Hadid sisters weren’t in attendance. Also missing Zendeya, Clare Danes, Lady Gaga, and Elle Fanning.

These are my favorites from this year's MET Gala so far. It was an underwhelming year full of celebrities who barely made an effort to follow the dress code.

So far, I think Emma Chamberlain in Mugler is my favorite

Who would have thought it would be her out of all people, but Emma Chamberlain's Mugler dress is definitely one of the most stunning and on-theme.

Demi Lovato. I know the colors and her shoulder tattoo make her look like Spiderman, but I like the idea.

SZA's outfit is endearingly creative, I appreciate the intricate details.

Naomi Osaka's Robert Wun couture is cool. Not a fan of the "shedding the skin" dress she revealed afterwards though.

Some attendees like Tate McRae and Zoe Kravitz look beautiful, but boring. They forgot they were supposed to wear Costume Art.

Here’s an interesting one that hasn’t been mentioned yet- Jen Rubio in Ashi Studio. The wood carved bodice and beautifully draped skirt are stunning. It’s a shame her hair and makeup is so boring with this dress

There could have been so much more with that. Head piece, better jewelry, a man made backdrop. So much potential.
