Style Sienna’s red MET tuxedo This was close, I have to tell you. It was close to be the Best for me. And if it were any other year, or event, sh-t, it probably would have been. But this is why Sienna Miller is so worth waiting for. I want to remember this look. By Lainey • May 05, 2015 09:22 am
MET Gala 2015 Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen: So dark at the MET, lah I’ll channel Kevin Kwan’s Crazy Rich Asians & China Rich Girlfriend “Singlish” for this post about Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen who decided maintain their funereal style – which, ordinarily, I’m into – for the China MET Gala… Alamak! Such bad luck, lah. And insulting. Like if you wore By Lainey • May 05, 2015 09:06 am
Bad Style Jennifer Lawrence’s two MET dresses Hated what Jennifer Lawrence wore to the MET Gala main event, especially as one of the co-hosts. Is it limiting, this Dior deal? Duana wrote earlier about Emily Blunt, about assuming Emily was more fashion forward than she actually is because, hilariously, she was in Devil Wears Prada. And By Lainey • May 05, 2015 08:55 am
Style FKA twigs & Robert Pattinson: Penis & Tea Hands at the MET What did I say yesterday when I wrote about FKA twigs and Robert Pattinson making their red carpet debut at the MET Gala? I said I wanted her to go rogue. Well, she wore a Christopher Kane dress with a dick at the slit. That’ll do. When I was By Lainey • May 05, 2015 08:32 am
Bad Style Emily Blunt: No MET Risk You know I love Emily Blunt. And you further know Emily Blunt can take a fashion risk. Well…. I wrote that sentence, and then I found myself in the position of having to back it up, and actually there isn’t that much. Like, she wore a bright green gown By Duana • May 05, 2015 08:21 am
Bad Style JLO’s MET Dragon It’s Versace. But it could also have been Zuhair Murad. What’s the difference? Beading held together by pantyhose – who can tell it apart? Doesn’t matter if there’s a dragon because f-ck, I’m so over it. I’m so over JLO in these kinds of By Lainey • May 05, 2015 07:37 am
Aging Gorgessity Madonna & Katy Perry: MET Moschino If you’d have asked me who I would have predicted to pull out the ching-chong eyes before the MET Gala, I would have told you Katy Perry. Dakota Johnson would not have been on my radar. Maybe it’s because I’m so surprised that Katy wasn’t By Lainey • May 05, 2015 07:30 am
Bad Style Dakota Johnson: MET Eyes So… Dakota Johnson. In Chanel. Nothing in the dress speaks to the theme of the MET Gala. And then you look at her eyes. And because it’s the MET Gala and the theme is China: Through The Looking Glass, and her dress isn’t China at all, now I’ By Lainey • May 05, 2015 07:19 am
MET Gala 2015 Elizabeth Banks: No Effie at the MET Gala I wish I loved this on Elizabeth Banks. That is, I do, on some level – the colour is perfect on her, and the cut-outs are cool while still being on trend. She looks fantastic, and the hair is fierce instead of glam, and she’s giving good face in By Duana • May 05, 2015 07:13 am
MET Gala 2015 Miley Cyrus: MET Gala recycle I liked it better in 2013 when she wore Marc Jacobs and it was punk. Click here for a refresher. So this Alexander Wang feels a little recycled. That said, with her history of cultural appropriation, maybe it was a good idea to play it safe. What I like most By Lainey • May 05, 2015 06:56 am
Gorgessity Keri Russell: MET Gala green feathers “Do you want to do Keri Russell?” Lainey asks. She knows I’ll say yes, because I love Elizabeth Jennings so much, and weirdly because none of you are watching the show, it seems as though The Americans is my personal secret, and further seems as though only I can By Duana • May 05, 2015 06:49 am
MET Gala 2015 Lady Gaga: Empress at the MET I wrote earlier about the Empress Dowager Cixi in the Fan Bingbing post – click here if you missed it. Fan Bingbing was what I imagined a modern Cixi would look like. Lady Gaga, in Alexander Wang for Balenciaga, however was probably the closest interpretation of the outer robes that Cixi By Lainey • May 05, 2015 06:42 am
MET Gala 2015 Kerry Washington: MET too sweet, too pretty This is not the thing. It’s not because it’s pink, or because it’s big. Because as we all know, this is a costume gala and big and over the top are totally fine. But this is wrinkly and shiny and not done up like the more exuberant By Duana • May 05, 2015 06:34 am
MET Gala 2015 Jessica Chastain: MET Most Frustrating Jessica Chastain wore gold Givenchy at the MET Gala. She also wore Givenchy at the Oscars. I don’t ever want to see that dress again but if you do, or if you can’t recall it, click here for a refresher. As I said at the time, I love By Lainey • May 05, 2015 06:04 am
MET Gala 2015 Carey Mulligan: MET Gala wrong shoes I like Carey Mulligan from afar better than I like it up close. One of the best things about her is that she always kind of seems amused in pictures – I think it’s just the way she places her mouth – but this utterly matte lip works for that. She By Duana • May 05, 2015 05:54 am
MET Gala 2015 Olivia Munn: MET Gala ombre This J Mendel on Olivia Munn is a shrug for me…at the MET Gala. At the Golden Globes? All over it. The falling sleeves really flatter the shoulders. And it’s still sexy without being tight and clingy. What do you think of her nails though? The matching ombre. By Lainey • May 05, 2015 05:47 am
