Kinda in the “if met gala, then enemy” camp. Find the excess and lack of political activity from many celebrities tasteless and I dislike the message I receive from this.
Looks like he tried to hard to sell bringing back the 70s. I just want to celebrate being closer to no Trump vs a having to live the last decade with him
So many commenters on the Met Gala are deranged. Like the event is put on to fund the museum. Idk call me crazy I think raising money for museums and art is good? Maybe don't call for random people's deaths? Compared with the psychos running our country, they aren't even that rich either.
A lot of those are rentals, where it is a culmination of the designer's life dream to have their work at the Met Gala. But whatever fuck them too I guess.
Idk i think kids being bombed, climate change, starvation, cancer research, and many other things are far more important than the ultra rich flaunting their wealth. Those rentals aren't cheap.
lots of reasons. it’s a versatile color, it’s a formal event but for the theme, they are pulling references from the actual exhibit in the museum itself (the met gala is the opening of the Superfine exhibit at MoMA).
when you think tailoring you think of sharp suits, clean lines, polished.
The Met Gala is SPECIFICALLY not supposed to be original. It's a tribute to what's come before. And a lot of drag norms come from African American contributions, so it really fits.
How many food pantries could have been stocked with the money wasted on the food, clothing, and swag? What a disgusting display of arrogance and ego in the midst of the worst political crisis the US has seen since the civil war. So gross.
Can tell a lot of people in these comments don’t realize the Met Gala is a fundraising event. Just bitching about rich people without understanding the point
This. The exhibit they’re fundraising for this year feels like a really critical one to invest in too with so much history, and Black history especially, under attack

Read the room and send them a check.
Needed someone to run in front and press play on a boombox first
