MET GALA 2023 FASHION ROAST PART 2 (the flop looks continue)

Honestly, This is the only place that I go to see what's going on in the fashion world. I appreciate the amount of research you put into these video's. We aren't just roasting. We are getting history and nuance from the review. I like how We get your personal opinion but also learn why a look does fit a theme. I love how some times your opinion differs. You'll talk about how nice the construction of a garment is. You'll talk about the craftsmanship and the work that does into these pieces. You include how the piece does or does not fit into a theme. Its amazing how you bring up these points whether or not you like the look itself. I didn't even know what a house code was before I started watching your channel. Thanks for all your hard work

Kudos to Luke for "doing the work" and educating us. I am glad that Luke has split this commentary of the 2023 Met Gala into a series as the work showcased deserves time, consideration and total candor.😉

I used to watch this channel every single day like 2 years ago, but then as I struggled to keep up with my finances in the face of a fashion industry that every day cared less and less about incentivizing designers with artistic merit but rather corporate-driven, over-commercialized designers, my interest in fashion, along with hopes of being able to truly afford the pieces I wanted fainted rather quickly. But after seeing some of the ridiculous Met Gala fits along with some great ones, I thought to myself "I definitely wanna hear what Luke has to say about these!" so now I'm back and both these Met Gala videos are reminding me exactly why I love fashion. It has nothing to do with whatever design agenda designers are trying to push or how much I may dislike it. It's about individualism and how clothes make us feel special. Even though I didn't love a lot of these looks, and even if they were off-theme, a lot of work and care were put into these looks and that's an artistry I'll always respect. Excited to start catching up more on fashion again. Thanks for the great videos, Luke + Team.

You captured how I felt about Olivia Rodrigo really well... like I was weirdly angry? whenever she appears in the worst possible outfits on the red carpet because she's beautiful. Literally a naturally pretty face, & a 'conventionally' ideal slender body...like what could go wrong?? But it does, every. single. time. Her Grammy dresses for both years were atrocious. The first was an ugly & badly-fitted/designed dress. The second was the most boring Black slip dress ever, very underwhelming, very dull, very rag. If she wants a more mature aesthetic, there's more ways than to be simply boring, have fun and not let minimalistic dullness wash her out. It works for some people, but somehow the minimalist style does not look good on her. This MET I was surprised because she's actually in an intriguing ensemble, many people despised it, but it's clearly an ode to Audrey who's moment with Chanel has such fashion & pop culture significance. I liked it, definitely not boring. Really hope she explores fashion more, be encouraged to have fun with it.

[@redtuxjellyfoxfidgetworld6138]

I love Olivia Rodrigo so much; I really couldn’t care less about what she wears 😅 That’s my opinion though because I don’t care about fashion at all..

But her red carpet stylist could do a lot better is what I'm saying. In my original comment, I mentioned liking her MET ensemble this year. Just as Luke said, it's more intriguing than anything she's previously worn. She has some cool afterparty looks, which are better than both grammy dresses. The black grammy dress this year was, I apologise, just lacklustre and dull. But she has a lot of potential. Hope she'll have fun with fashion & explore it more.

[@oanafl]

Absolutely agreed, she's never been styled as she should've been and it's such a shame. Like I said many times before, she's a beautiful girl with an awful stylist.

[@AlyssaB1287]

The Met Gala ALWAYS has a theme. That theme is usually announced 6 months in advance. Which means these designers have 6 months to prepare. In my own personal opinion EVERYONE that walks that carpet should be on theme and it shouldn’t look like the designers went through their closets and said “here’s a black and white outfit or this looks Chanel inspired it’ll do” Karl Lagerfeld’s career spanned about 64 YEARS over 6 Labels and this is what we got.

[@gleewhoseline198]

I think Sydney's look would've been great for me with a few minor changes. Maybe some more black details on the dress so the bow at the knees didn't look so out of place. Or even a tighter hairstyle so that the hair bow was actually visible. At the moment, Sydney's red carpet outfits usually end up wearing her instead of the opposite. The only ones I've loved so far is her red Berlin dress and her Euphoria Season 2 premiere outfit.

*THANK YOU SO MUCH!* for fully acknowledging Camila Morrone 's lace collar dress....I notice that most people didn't even notice or mention her or her look but I was immediately taken with it and I saved it to my mood board along with my other faves (Anok Yai, Bad Bunny, Anne Hathaway, Alia Bhatt, everything Thom Browne made, Billie Eilish, Yung Miami, Chi Osse, Ava Max, Elle Fanning, Devin Aoki, Jordan Roth and Lila Moss). It does feel fresh and different, and very few looks struck me that way. I'm so glad that you saw the beauty I saw in her look.

[@barbiquearea]

I've seen a number of other fashion critics on KZbin who covered the Met say some horrible things about Elle Fanning's outfit. Some of them were pretty mean to her, others even snarkedly compared the flower crowns with the black ribbons to Regina George's prom look in Mean Girls. This made me mad because they clearly went into their videos attacking Elle's fashion sense without understanding the context behind the look. And even as someone who isn't as educated about fashion, I felt she pulled it off really well. This is why I am so glad that Luke did his research and understood it as a touching tribute to Karl and even sang Elle's praises for it. Maybe its because I stan Elle Fanning so I am a bit biased. But I went into this video expecting Luke was going to give the same vitriol over her look as the other critics have. But I am really glad that he didn't, and was very classy towards the looks that he didn't like.

Agree with you Luke a lot of people didn’t get Cara’s look, i loved it, i got it, even the jewellery was paying homage, loved Cardi’s black and white look far more than the pink look, i really enjoyed Florence Pugh’s look she looked like a space princess, Elle fanning look was special because of the back story too, i really liked Jeremy pope for Balamain, but i loved Olivier’s matching suit and the bag saying “Karl who?” With Jeremy in the massive Karl’s face following him up the stairs, Jordan’s look was so cool and avant guard but also understated, i loved Anne Hathaway it was the perfect Versace x Chanel dress, Michelle Yeo looked fab even if the only ref to the theme was the black and white, Marc did Paris dirty with that look, I thought Sidney Sweeney looked beautiful i think Karl would have approved, Teyana Taylors Tom look was awesome, but my favourite was Sora Choi in Tom Brown, Tom Brown really brought it this year.

The one look that i hope Luke reviews is Allison Williams Patou ensemble. It's a gorgeous satin coral dress, belt in the waist and a huge bow that transforms into a train.

Viola Davis intentionally dressed in hot pink as a criticism towards Karl (from my point of view) because: 1: He made comments that were fatphobic, racist, sexist, anti-Islamic, nepotist and criticing the woman's body. And 2: He hated the color pink.

[@catserver8577]

Well, either she or you have missed the point then. Maybe both. Lagerfeld didn't dislike pink. Would love some links to these comments. If you can find one single fashion designer that is not fully immersed in the marketing of humans as basic stereotypes at some point in long, industrious careers, please name them. This is and always has been what fashion is. Perhaps watching Pret a Porter would make it simple enough for everyone who is caught up in the modern day poorly constructed "protests" we are all slogging through.

About Cardi B ‘s pink look, I’d like to add something. Her look was infused with Indian traditional jewellery and style too. The thing dropping down to her forehead is called a ‘maang-teeka’ which Indian brides wear traditionally. Also how the way beads of pearls drape around her waist, very much similar to Indian style of wearing a lehenga. So her dress kinda gives fusion vibes. Also Naomi Campbell’s dress literally looks like a saree if it was tightly draped.

“Good for you, you look healthy and happy.” 😂😂😂 Fantastic. As always, the depth of knowledge you bring to your critique is incredible. You take us along a fashion history journey and open a door for us to view these pieces with so much more understanding of what it is we are actually looking at. So, even if I don’t personally like a piece, I have an appreciation for what was executed. Or failed to execute as the case may be hahah. When you don’t like a look, there is a *reason* based on something relevant, it’s not just snark. Honestly, it’s not an overstatement to say that the designers would do well to watch your review of their work. There’s valuable feedback here for them. Excellent as always. Thank you ❤

I was looking for the met explanation since it finished! Thank you for your work!

[@lizamohd7151]

Every after-Met Gala shows, I will definitely look for your review because compared to other channel, your commentary are more 'professional' with critical fashion/historical- focused talk. Maybe because you made some research before or because you are costume/fashion educated?. Thank you for your fashion enthusiasm, I learn a lot!

[@deemariedubois4916]

Not only am I enjoying your videos, I’m learning so much. Thanks…

[@jojomillward675]

Your knowledge of fashion is phenomenal. Explained so articulately and with a fabulous dose of panache 💚

[@jdm0186]

Love it and love you just popping on to be that guy who says the “overflowing” of fabric ala Cara Delavigne is called blousing

[@ophelia.artaud]

Teyana Taylor had my favorite look, she looks badass I honestly liked all of the Thom Browne looks.

[@imanimosley]

not that you’ll ever need this again, but: “tuners” = pegs “stem” = neck fantastic video, as always!

[@littlefoxx333]

I love Camille Morrone and Jordan Roth's dresses. And Balmain did a great tribute and didnt think it was ass kissy at all, this was an event about Karl after all so a straight to the point tribute like that seems perfect. I liked Kristen Stewart's suit too and agree I like it better with the hat. Overall I liked most of the outfits this year. I am a bit dissapointed you didnt mention Peneople Cruz though, one of my favorite dresses and that woman is so stunning.

@a human bean There are four parts. Stay tuned.

[@tonirajap4180]

Let me just say this....Luke's right on the money here. A brilliant review. Thank you for the work you put in. I was not only educated, but entertained.

[@anapadilla2257]

Loooooove your videos, specially Met Gala you are the only one with actual fashion/art/history references. So good and well researched, appreciate the work you put into these.

[@navyanav]

I loved Olivia Wilde's look too. She was on theme and looked elegant unlike the kardashians, who looked out of place.

[@jinoratheexplorer1064]

The only person I need to form my opinions on fashion lmao

[@Morticia1313]

What I think looks beautiful, you usually think is boring. Even so, I love your channel. I would have loved to see you do this with Joan Rivers. The young & old perspective. Camilla was in Daisy & the Six. Good show. Thank you for the entertaining video.

[@rmcmariusable]

Luke, you are a fireball of fashion knowledge and history. I absolutely love your reviews and learn so much every time. You are awesome❣️

[@chipmunkpark8826]

Elle Fanning was fairy...so cute she was one of the best dressed especially due to the meaning

[@HelloMoto_]

“Doesn’t matter who wears them uuugly!” ahahah I love you! Love the faces you make, I literally watch these just for you

[@EJproductionsxD]

Hi Luke! Would you care to make a fashion review of the Eurovision Turqouise Carpet from today! It is so different and camp and I would love to see it highlighted on your platform!

[@thehofmeister]

I absolutely ADORE you. If I were a famous person who walked red carpets and was ever invited to the met… you would be my number one stylist

[@sheHerTheyThem]

Viola Davis wore pink in solidarity of the #metoo movement and Karl's disdain for it! So she was on point in the brief if you want to include a 🖕Ms. Chasinghorse wore pink for the same reason 👏👏👏👏

[@catserver8577]

Sigh. Good thing they also looked beautiful so 20-30 minutes from today when no one thinks these "statements" are necessary or productive we at least have that. Whatever gets them out of the house and enjoying themselves, I guess.

[@marykuettner752]

I can't believe all the people commenting this stuff. Karl used pink all the time. He didn't care a thing about "Me too". He died in 2019. Me Too started as a hashtag in 2017 and he never commented on it. He said a lot of problematic things but that wasn't one of them. Anyone that was offended by him stayed home. Everyone you mentioned wore clothes that were a tribute to him.

[@sheHerTheyThem]

@@marykuettner752 you can actually fact check their remarks..that's how I got my Information..it's all public..Google away.

[@darrelsuarez]

wake up babes hautelemode met gala roast pt. 2 is up

[@reneeamyot4261]

Hi. Love your work! For the tems look, i think thé top,of the skier represents the colar of a shirt of KL

[@narum.4247]

I´m still not over the colgate carpet

[@naburton3bell]

Omg it makes sense now, no wonder I was trying to think what it reminded me of 😂

[@Coffeegirl739]

The color choice might be a slight misunderstandment but it was not some bought from the store made in factory piece of fabric. It was made by brand in Kerala from natural fibre od agave plant and was hand painted in New York City by artists, as far as I know.

[@whitneymouse]

Literally was just here to see your opinion on Conan’s outfit 🥰 so glad you loved it as much as I did!

[@bikijohn6575]

The way Luke went OFF on Paris Hilton (40:17) makes me want to meet him one day dressed super badly, in the hopes that I can be the proud recipient of one of his 'attention-to-detail-savage-reads'😆

[@thaliahall4599]

Thanks for describing the outfits and the history that inspired many of them.

[@margot64fern]

I appreciate your research! For example: the Elle Fanning dress. It made no sense! Until you told the back story.

[@Chr1st8l]

Ditto

[@mssmusicnotes]

Lily Collins should have arrived with a suitcase with a giant portrait of Karl Lagerfeld !!! Missed opportunity

[@miley3561]

The way I checked if you uploaded part 2 several times a day😅

[@jacobrivera1048]

From what I heard about Vera Wang, she didn’t like Karl and so she was literally and figuratively “dragging his name” with her look lol

[@marykuettner752]

You haven't heard much then.

[@thatkatblack7713]

I love it every time Luke says "Now, listen...."
