Met Gala 2023: The biggest, boldest looks to walk fashion’s finest red carpet – National | 24CA News
It was an evening of glitz, glamour and wild sartorial alternatives as Hollywood’s most trendy stars descended on the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City on Monday for the Met Gala.
The theme of the night’s annual fundraiser, “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty,” was devoted to the late designer, who died in 2019.
(The theme confronted important pushback from the style trade because of Lagerfeld’s occasional problematic views. He was identified to make quips that have been misogynistic, racist and fatphobic.)
Despite the backlash, Lagerfeld’s contributions to style have been plentiful and attendees had no scarcity of inspiration. He designed not just for his eponymous model, but in addition labored with distinguished style homes Chanel, Fendi, Balmain, Patou and Chloé.
The end result was a feast of memorable moments with Anne Hathaway and Janelle Monáe offering notably notable ensembles. Bad Bunny and Rihanna additionally turned out odes to Parisian style.
As anticipated, a number of stars took inspiration from Lagerfeld’s beloved feline, Choupette. Doja Cat arrived in a high-fashion, glittering look impressed by the white cat, whereas others like Jared Leto took a way more literal — and furrier — method.
There was even a little bit of drama on the carpet this 12 months, with each actor and director Olivia Wilde and Vogue China’s editor-in-chief, Margaret Zhang, arriving in the identical costume designed by Chloé.
The actual enjoyable of the Met Gala, at the least for non-attendees, is judging the style of all of Hollywood’s largest celebs. There was a particular sort of irony this 12 months as viewers all over the world tuned in sporting sweatpants to look at an occasion in honour of the designer who notoriously despised the loungewear. (Lagerfeld as soon as mentioned, “Sweatpants are a sign of defeat.”)
