That would be impossible since the theme is literally about fashion preservation for outfits that are too delicate to wear. It could have been outfits that resemble items (like Anna did).

She was definitely on theme.

[@charlottemccaig578]

I've been sewing garments for 60 years and can be certain of one thing, Kylie J's front lines are because the dress did not fit, it was too tight in the hips. That 'bunching" was not due to fabric creasing from sitting, it's because the fabric is pulling upwards,. I imagine this put great strain on the seams and may have even caused some damage. That dress was made for a model to wear once, a model who is tall and very, very thin all over. Not meant for an hourglass shaped person. Hey....maybe that fit the theme after all! Maybe the dress split open at the seams by the end of the night so the passage of time showed in the damage to the dress!

Lana Del Ray's thorn costume is a spot on Sleeping Beauty reference (not dead winter foliage awaiting reawakening spring). In the fairy tale Sleeping Beauty lay in a tower for 100 years. During that time thorny bushes climbed up the tower, grew through her window and encircled the bed where she slept. I've seen illustrations of this scene in old Brothers Grimm story books.

[@nonameface90]

The barbed foliage formed an impenetrable mass, and the people passing stepped around it carefully, noticing the belladonna entwined among the branches. Most of them were too busy finding their footing among the upturned flagstones to look up into the centre of the thornbushes, where two stone statues stood side by side, gazing out over the grounds from their protected vantage point.” And then about the woman’s figure it says, “In her left hand she lightly clasped a single rose, the delicately formed petals so thin as to be almost transparent,” just like Lana held a rose in her left hand.

The MET really needs to invite all the stylists to a private showing of these exhibits BEFORE the Gala takes place, even if only virtually. It could be literally a cut and paste situation for their clients to bring to designers.

There was a short-lived trend of paper dresses in the 60s. They were made to be worn 1-3 times only. One such dress had seeds embedded into it. If you added just enough water, flowers would grow from the dress. I think that would have been perfect for the theme.

For bad bunny, i think its perfectly on theme with the garden of time. This is not exposed stitching, its a process called basting, where you use a contrasting weak thread to momentarily keep 2 layers in place while you saw them with your machine. Its also used when you cant make temporary marks with chalk (see the red marks beneath his throat). Then, when the piece is finished, you take the basting threads out. The basting is done by hand as you can see by the length of each stitch that are way too long for a machine. The breast pocket is still closed to avoid the fabric to move and distort the final piece. Its not meant to be pretty or regular, its purely functional. Its really delicate and its designed to snap easily (you can see that he accidentally pulled on a thread thats lower right on his jacket) To me, the basting is reminiscent of the novel because they went back in time too far, the garnement isnt yet complete

i think Sydney Sweneys dress would have been wonderful if they had leaned into the topic of petrolium in clothing. Nowadays polyester is used in so many pieces and i feel like the gloves represent that with their the plasticy (& oily) look. The stems of the flowers mirror that plastic. What would have made the look complete, is if they had dunked the bottom of the dress in oily substance, or changed the colours of the bottom to dark brown/black to show that. That transition from light blue to those dark colours and the implements of oil looking/plastiky material throughout the dress would symbolise how fashion has been taken over by plastik (polyester). With *time* clothing has shifted from being entirely made out of wool or cotton to being made mostly out of polyester on a broad scale. Her dress would have beautifully symbolised that. & the dark hair would also fit to that theme since it isn't a sunshine and rainbows topic.

What I read was that she represents the sea. That’s why the waves and the pearls. The theme wasn’t just flowers it was also the see, the land and the air. That’s why I also think that Ari was on theme because she represented the air with her wings and the white, cloud like dress. I am obviously a Jennie fan so I’m biased lmao. But I also do appreciate fashion and I can very clearly see the intent of the designer. I don’t think Jennie cares that much about the theme but I do think the designer cared a lot and tried to do something interesting and different and in my opinion they achieved it. To me fashion isn’t about being flashy it is also about being creative and caring about details. What’s also cool about the dress is, that it’s supposed to be completely recyclable which also includes the time aspect.

​@@rosethorn0232oh please! This is just an excuse. The fact that they were invited means that they get the opportunity to pick any look/looks from the fashion house look books through out the years and these rubbish is what their stylists picked!! Set the boys up to be ridiculed and that sucks!

[@chickennuggets655]

@@adinaanams7531 In their defense, kpop companies, netizens, and the whole industry is very picky with idols, and idols never get the chance to be creative or expressive, only ever allowed to be safe so they don't get hate. It sucks, but when doing a MASSIVE event like this, especially with how much attention it gets, they need to be safe with their looks. many people suck and will hate on them for anything. Also TH just didn't do much for the theme, even with himself or his wife.

@@chickennuggets655Then Kpop artists should no longer be invited. The entire point of the Met Gala is to show up in unique, beautiful, on-theme outfits. If they're not gonna try, why invite them at all?

[@justlola417]

Wow I thought Zendayas blue and green dress was so beautiful, I think the colours went together beautifully

[@memento81]

she looked like a drag race design challenge

[@Jtomasi]

Not too on theme, but it is beautiful indeed. The colour matched that of the hues of hummingbirds, like it's not that hard to figure this out. Hummingbird in garden, grapes turning into fine wine over time!

[@alleycat2297]

it was so detailed! i loved it. and i’m of the opinion that the teal/green peacock look is very extravagant and camp. maybe not so much for this particular theme of decay/fragility/the passage of time though. i could see it working better if the dress had feathers

[@priyadarshini688]

Mona Patel was the best dressed at this year's Met, probably you should go through the whole event once again. Her look was goddess level, in the theme and timeless for sure. No one came even near to what she wore.

[@angelaphillip6993]

Sorry, she wasn't! Not better than Zhendia.

[@qualitea983]

Aalia Bhatt also SLAYED!!!!

I agree ✨ It was a gorgeous dress, and fit the theme perfectly

[@lizziebkennedy7505]

Doesn’t change the conclusion. It was really disgusting on many levels.

Too true! 🤭

[@sinneryetsaintly]

And with all the money in the world, 99% STILL couldn't stay on theme!

[@sarah0325_]

as a big stray kids fan myself, most of us are also disappointed at how basically styled they were as their concert and performance outfits are usually insane. Most of the members are signed to their own separate brands like Versace, lv, Loewe, McQueen etc etc, but as a group they’re ambassadors for th and it sucks that they had to by styled by th. These outfits are so obviously untailored and such ugly and cheap looking fabric, even make up wise their make up at the korean red carpets is usually heavier on the contour and eye shadow, they usually play around with blush and face gems/glitters to so it really pisses me off that we were so robbed. Stray Kids is known for breaking male fashion norms in their performances and yet th had to go and fuck up their first met, at least they looked fine as fuck and enjoyed their time edit: they've also had many looks that are inspired by the traditional Korean hanbok, I think back to their lollapalooza france headlining in which they wore modernised black and gold hanboks (colours of korean royalty) and I loved them for it, if only th got the memo ://

[@iamakdramaaddict902]

Also Skz's own individual since of style is so good TH did them very bad tbh. The outfits were so lack luster and bland

[@mercurycures8204]

Exactly, did Tommy serve on theme? No. Did the boys serve face? Yes

[@sarah0325_]

[@HopeeInk]

Tommy did them dirty, it was exactly what I expected and I‘m so mad as a stay, the kids deserved better. Being the first kpop group to be invited and then having them turn up in last minute outfits is a pitty. Tom Ford was matching and as they asked him why he chose his look his explanation had me shook, just say you want to sell suits and move on. I know that as we saw Lixie and Binnie post more close ups that you could see the flower embroideries on the jackets and button downs and rose buttons on these looks, but still that’s the laziest interpretation of the whole night, even if it’s kinda on theme.
