The Met Gala 2024

The Met - An Introduction

2024's Met Gala! To celebrate the Costume Institute’s new exhibition: “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion", the Met Gala was sure to showcase a select array of items and pieces (250 in fact - all from Costume Institute’s permanent collection) from the last 400 years of fashion history. This year's Met Gala was taken over by Zendaya, Bad Bunny, Jennifer Lopez and Chris Hemsworth, all very notable and famous celebrities.

The Met's dress code was The Garden of Time. Although interpreted in a number of ways, what was clearly the more popular interpretation leant more towards a floral or nature idea. Floral-like outfits weren't just the ones to find it's way onto the red carpet.

Outfits

Let's take a look at some of the outfits showed off on the red carpet. Starting off we have Lana Del Rey, and American singer-songwriter, in Alexander McQueen.

Next we have Anok Yai, a south Sudanese-American model, who donned a two piece suit studded with 98,000 Swarovski crystals.

Next we have Nicki Minaj — Trinidadian-born rapper, singer, and songwriter — in Marni. A colourful ensemble, no doubt.

Moving on we have Lil Nas X — an American rapper, singer, and songwriter — in Luar. Quite a nice piece, don't you agree?

Next up, Karlie Kloss, an American fashion model, in Swarovski. It's in a beautiful shade of pink paired with the crystals, and the flowers and petals were a nice touch.

Next on our list is Zendaya, American actress and singer, in Maison Margiela. A look completed by the makeup, Zendaya showed off her stunning blue and green gown and hat.

Sixth on our list: Tyla, South African and American, in Balmain. Her dress is made of sand and her bag is an hourglass to represent time.

Last on our list is Mona Patel, entrepreneur and philanthropist, in an Iris van Herpen gown. The butterflies on her sleeves actually move!

There are many, many more stunning outfits, so do look them up if you can!

My Thought

I am a simple person - I have my opinions and I wish to speak of them. So who'll stop me from sharing my opinions on this year's Met? My opinions are as simple as I: I think that whilst there were lacklustre outfits, there were also show-stopping ones that caught people's attention in a positive way. I do find it quite nice to have this year's theme to be quite broad and vague, as it brought us a nice array of outfits.

But here's the important part!

The Palestinian protest!

I'm sure all of us are aware of the genocide. Israel has been carrying out genocide or Palestine, causing the death and injuries of Palestinians. There are many videos and images and articles on this genocide, and I'm sure by now all of you have seen them.

There were protests against Israel's wrongdoings outside the Met Gala this year, causing many of the protestors to be arrested.

In Central Park,  a group held cardboard signs bearing messages such as "No Met Gala While Bombs Drop in Gaza" and "No Celebration Without Liberation." Along Fifth Avenue, a larger contingent raised Palestinian flags, their chants of "Gaza! Gaza!" reverberating through the evening air. - NDTV WORLD

Don't forget to support Palestine in any way you can — whether spreading information and news about the genocide, boycotting brands, or donating money or food.

KEERY WASHINGTON, ANNE HATHAWAY, AND HALLE BAILEY LEFT ME ABSOLUTELY GAGGED. Their outfits are EVERYTHING. Here’s my personal rating for each!

Kerry Washington : She did absolutely amazing. Most people except ‘older’ celebrity woman to play it safe and she did the exact opposite. I can definitely see how some/most people think the outfit is ugly and gets ‘thrown off’ by the top but the jacket put EVERYTHING together. I will say I wish her hair was different, I think a mid cut w/ curls would’ve been great with the outfit. ALSO WHY DID HER MAKEUP LITERALLY EATTTTT.

Rating : 9.6/10, the hair brought her down ☹️

Anne Hathaway : The accents are absolutely gorgeous. It complements the dress BEAUTIFULLY. I love the details of the bobbie pins holding it all together AND the necklace. The only that I love that the flowers goes with the outfit and doesn’t consume it. It’s normal to see overly exaggerated top (in this case when I say tops I mean the breast section of the top) nowadays but I love how she somehow found the perfect middle ground between not to much but not to basic. The hair goes PERFECTLY with the outfit and the glove sleeves puts everything together nicely

Rating : 10/10

Halle Bailey : UMMM WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK, WHEN I FIRST SAW THIS I LITERALLY GASPED. The dress fits her shape so perfectly it’s insane. Please, don’t even get me started on her ruffled cape. The cape put everything together and made it so like WOWWWWW. Her hair is so cute and goes with the outfit perfectly. I don’t know if it’s just the picture but i wish the left side wasn’t like up yk? 😭 It stilled CHEWED tho

Rating : 9.8/10
