MET Gala 2017 Dakota Johnson: MET Gala’s Most Confusing I like Dakota Johnson’s relationship with Gucci because they are doing the “ugly expensive” thing really well right now and it completely suits her vibe. When Dakota wears something “unlikable” (ie: something that will get her on a Worst Dressed list in a celebrity weekly), I feel like she By Maria • May 02, 2017 09:30 am
Style Zoe Kravitz: the MET’s punk pixie Zoe Kravitz has an advantage. Several, actually. First… you can’t get away from the face. Her face, it’s absurd. Like absurdly exquisite. Like intoxicatingly exquisite. Second though, right now, it’s the hair. Right now, the shock blonde pixie cut is having a moment. But no one is By Lainey • May 02, 2017 09:20 am
MET Gala 2017 Matthew Rhys & Keri Russell: Best MET Story When we divide up the people we’re going to write about at LaineyGossip, some are for fighting over—wait for that later today—and some are just givens. Nobody would even have to blink before handing me Keri Russell and Matthew Rhys but you know what? I’m gonna By Duana • May 02, 2017 08:51 am
Style Tracee Ellis Ross: Best First MET What did I tell you yesterday about my girl? Allow me to quote myself. Because I haven’t slept, and I can’t come up with any new words but also because Tracee Ellis Ross just killed it at her first MET Gala and I f-cking called it on the By Lainey • May 02, 2017 08:38 am
MET Gala 2017 Katie Holmes: MET Fudge I hesitated on that title. But I couldn’t think of another way to describe what Katie Holmes is doing in this outfit. You know when you try to get away with something? When you know what you’ve worked on isn’t exactly the answer to the question, but By Duana • May 02, 2017 08:30 am
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 Delevingne, 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
