MET Gala 2017 The Olsens at the MET Gala: Avant-Garde or Same Old? The Olsens are a staple at the MET Gala and year after year their looks are interchangeable. It doesn’t matter what the theme is, the Olsens dress like the Olsens (I like to call it: rich bohemian living abroad after her wealthy husband’s suspicious death). This year is By Maria • May 02, 2017 08:18 am
MET Gala 2017 Lupita Nyong’o: MET Disappointment I’m sorry, I hate to say it. Because of course this is Lupita. And we wait for Lupita, always. But this time, it wasn’t worth it – at least not the dress. She made up for it in another way though and we’ll get to that in a By Lainey • May 02, 2017 07:28 am
MET Gala 2017 METLeisure: Riley Keough Do you want to know a terrible secret about me? I’m one of those people who likes to buy leggings and athleisure wear, but I don’t go to the gym enough to justify the purchases. I am basically the worst. I don’t always wear it everywhere, which By Duana • May 02, 2017 07:17 am
MET Gala 2017 Stella’s Blondes at the MET Gala Stella McCartney always has a huge presence at the MET Gala. She’s there as a designer, of course, but beyond that, Stella is exactly Anna’s kind of person (famous parents, British, wealthy). And Stella attracts a very A-list crowd. In the past she’s dressed Madonna, Cara By Maria • May 02, 2017 07:01 am
MET Gala 2017 Madonna & Paris Jackson: the missing MET moment Maybe the moment has happened already and I just haven’t caught up to it yet. There’s so much on social media it’s been impossible to keep writing and see every possible photo, every Instagram story, every Snapchat video. As it is, I just sent Duana a GLORIOUS By Lainey • May 02, 2017 06:48 am
MET Gala 2017 MET Gala ‘Angelica’: Allison Williams “So So So… so this is what it feels like to match wits with someone at your level, what the hell is the catch?” Look, it’s not like I’m above throwing a Hamilton quote on the top of a piece for no reason—but in this case it’ By Duana • May 02, 2017 06:24 am
MET Gala 2017 Diddy Did the Met Gala Stairs Why no, it is not about the men, even more than usual. That is, Jaden Smith—but he’s, like, doing Performance Haircuts, and even the most adventurous dudes basically come in the same thing, except Rami Malek, who looks like he shops at the same clothing store as Curious By Duana • May 02, 2017 06:04 am
MET Gala 2017 Reese Witherspoon: MET Most Improved I know. I can’t believe it either. But let’s remind ourselves what Reese Witherspoon looked like the last time she was at the MET Gala, in 2015, when the theme was China: Through The Looking Glass: Basically, she didn’t bother. Here’s what Reese wore to the By Lainey • May 02, 2017 02:33 am
MET Gala 2017 Mandy Moore, Cold Comfort at the MET No matter what, there is Mandy Moore. In good times and in bad, certainly as long as I’ve been staying up late to write about stuff and long before that, there has been Mandy Moore. Yet I was almost perversely proud when the shots came out and people started By Duana • May 02, 2017 02:10 am
MET Gala 2017 Lena Dunham & Amy Schumer: the MET Forgiven Lena Dunham and Amy Schumer were at the MET Gala in 2016. And then they bitched about the experience. Lena claimed that she was rejected by Odell Beckham Jr and apologised for it later and Amy called the experience a “punishment” and insisted it would be her last time. So, By Lainey • May 02, 2017 02:00 am
MET Gala 2017 Mindy Kaling: MET Gala’s Most Predictable THIS PAINS ME. The only reason I am calling it “most predictable” is because yesterday for Smutty Social Media I included a photo of her dress and at the time I was worried because of the shimmer and tassels. It is indeed shimmery. And there are tassels. It’s midnight By Maria • May 02, 2017 01:42 am
MET Gala 2017 Pharrell & Helen: the MET Chosen Someone was going to show up in a classic Comme Des Garcons signature piece – the kind of piece that isn’t conventionally “wearable” but that is unmistakably Rei Kawakubo. A garment that’s also a sculpture. The only question: who would have the honour, who would be the chosen? Because By Lainey • May 02, 2017 01:30 am
MET Gala 2017 How Elizabeth Banks Met Galas To Whom It May Concern: Please excuse Elizabeth from dressing on the Comme Des Garcons/Rei Kuwakabo theme tonight, as she has been dressing that way for the past several years due to her ongoing engagement as Effie Trinket. As such, her mesmerizing body-con sequined Rorschach painting and banana- By Duana • May 02, 2017 01:20 am
MET Gala 2017 Rose Byrne & Bobby Cannavale: Best MET Gala Hair Sometimes, the early birds make the strongest impressions at the MET Gala. This year, that honour belongs to two of my favourites, Rose Byrne and Bobby Cannavale. They were definitely the best-coiffed couple of the night, but, if you ask Bobby - they were simply "off to Applebee' By Joanna • May 02, 2017 01:04 am
MET Gala 2017 Jaden Smith: Best MET Accessory This is the one we might be fighting about the hardest. Lainey, you’re just trying to be different. Trying too hard to be different. Jaden tries too hard to be different. Here’s my response to that: He IS different. If you don’t think he’s different then By Lainey • May 02, 2017 12:49 am
Style Priyanka Chopra: Met Gala Gadget Priyanka Chopra was one of the first arrivals to the MET Gala, and the “Inspector Gadget” jokes came fast and furious. I get it, she’s wearing a trench coat. I will tell you why I’m more into this than 95% of the gowns I saw. Adherence to theme: By Maria • May 02, 2017 12:39 am
