I saw Lily Gladstone and Quannah Chasinghorse in the same photo and collapsed with a fever and had to be driven to hospital and the doctor said the only cure to my fever was to paint them both proudly displaying their degrees in slayology from servington university

(This is my opinion)

I've spent all of 2024 studying the Met Gala and I just saw a really misguided take that I want to correct.

From the beginning The Met Gala has been a publicity event and a corporate event. The modern Met Gala red carpet is about advertising. Everyone there is trying to sell you or the other people there something. A brand, their movie, their makeup, or just keep your attention. The best equivalence I have been able to come up with is Superbowl ads (pop culture moments but also just ads). Just because it is photographed not filmed does not undo that it is a media event.

Just because the Met Gala raises funds for a museum does not mean it is morally good. The money that funds the costume institute is often from really alarming places such as the Blackstone group ,Facebook/Meta , Morgan Stanley , Apple, and always Conde Nast (Anna Wintour's name is on the building).

The Met Gala is heavily curated to only present artistic interpretations on the theme that fit with the hegemonic ideals of the fashion industry, Vogue, and the Met.

Here is Robert Orsi's essay on the 2018 Heavenly Bodies exhibit and how it suppresses certain narratives.

The wealth shown at this event should be highly criticized. Each $75,000 ticket for 2024 could fund evacuation for 8+ people from Gaza.

All reporting on this year's gala (except what was posted by U.S Vogue) misidentified Muslim model Ugbad Abdi as Hanani Taylor the night of.

The event is a racist show of wealth designed to capture the public's attention. If you cared about the funding of the costume institute it should bother you more that the museum it is a part of refuses to fund it, not that people are questioning the power at play.
