The acquaintances are already hereOscar of fashion’, with New York welcoming one of the most glamorous parties of the year. The Metropolitan Museum of Art becomes the setting for the MET Gala, organized by the Costume Institute of the same institution, to raise funds on a red carpet that has nothing to do with what we are used to.
As is tradition, the editor-in-chief of Vogue magazine, Anna Wintour, presides over this gala whose theme is “The Garden of Time”, the idea of ​​fleeting beauty inspired by a short story of the same title written by JG Ballard in 1962, continuing with the theme of the exhibition, Sleeping Beauties: Reviving Fashionwhich is about the ephemeral nature of clothing and its trends.
The red carpet has been filled with celebrities who did not want to miss this special and important occasion in the world of fashion, surprising us—or not—with their elaborate looks that range from the most eccentric to the simplest dress. Who will pass the Vogue editor’s filter?
Ashley Graham
The plus size model has always been a style reference. However, on this red carpet we don’t give it the thumbs up. Although we see the theme in the flowers on the hips, the tight dress with sequins on the skirt and a corset on the top. it doesn’t quite cohere each other.
Ko. Gwendoline Christie
Although she has a hairstyle similar to the one she debuted on the Maison Margiela catwalk, we don’t buy Gwendoline Christie’s look. The actress was one of the first to appear at the gala and she did so with a red velvet dress and a black tulle cape that looks like thought at the last minute. Although it represents the evil witch from fairy tales, we do not see the theme anywhere.
Okay. Bad Bunny
Bad Bunny was one of those confirmed at the gala, making his debut as host and he did it in style. The singer came with a ‘half-finished’ suit with black 3D flowers on the jacket and a medieval-inspired hat with the same floral motifs. He accompanied it with rhombus glasses and leather gloves, a very elegant and original to follow the ‘dress code’.
Okay. Elsa Pataky
As a representative of Spain, we have for the first time Elsa Pataky who attended with her husband, Chris Hemsworth, who makes his debut as host. The model surprised with a ‘Greek goddess’ inspired look wearing a semi-transparent golden dress with a braid adorned with a matching flower headdress, perfectly following the theme.
Okay. Emma Chamberlain
If you want to wear a look that perfectly follows the theme of the gala, but in its darkest version, look at Emma Chamberlain. The ‘influencer’ is a regular at the party and always surprises us with her look, but this time she has outdone herself with a Dress with strapless neckline, transparencies and matching black embroidered flowers. She has accompanied it with some opera gloves made of the same fabric with fringes falling down. Simply brilliant.
Okay. Jennifer Lopez
Shining as if she were wrapped in diamonds, Jennifer Lopez teaches us how to wear the dress code without dressing up or failing to match our style. The singer opted for an extremely tight mermaid-cut dress with a nude effect, with transparencies and embroidered silver flowers throughout the garment. The deep ‘V’ neckline stands out with the decorations in front of the shoulders.
Okay. Anna Wintour
The main host and director of Vogue, Anna Wintour, did not change the look she usually wears every year: her long coat. However, on this occasion adds several embroidered flowers, thus elevating the style. While it is not something new, it is appropriate and elegant.
Okay. Zendaya
The most anticipated of the night without any doubt is Zendaya. The actress has been surprising us with her looks for the last few months and, once again, she has not disappointed. For the gala in which she is host, she has chosen a tulle dress in shades of blue with transparencies and bunches of grapes on the hips and sleeves.
