The First Monday in May Official Trailer 1 (2016) - Documentary HD
The First Monday in May follows the creation of The Metropolitan Museum of Art's most attended fashion exhibition in history, "China: Through The Looking Glass," an exploration of Chinese-inspired Western fashions by Costume Institute curator Andrew Bolton. With unprecedented access, filmmaker Andrew Rossi captures the collision of high fashion and celebrity at the Met Gala, one of the biggest global fashion events chaired every year by Vogue editor in chief Anna Wintour. Featuring a cast of renowned artists in many fields (including filmmaker Wong Kar Wai and fashion designers Karl Lagerfeld, Jean Paul Gaultier and John Galliano) as well as a host of contemporary pop icons like Rihanna, the movie dives into the debate about whether fashion should be viewed as art.

[@HalliHalloLaura]

Wow. I already feel incredibly poor and bad dressed and this was just the trailer.

[@lalakuma9]

Yeah, those exhibitions were amazing, but it does make you question the meaning of life to know that there are ridiculously luxurious clothes that cost jillions of bucks.

[@BL00DYR0S31]

lalakuma9 yeah but at least you can wear them I can't really say I'd have any use for a painting.

[@diornotwar123]

be inspired

[@brix_videos]

fashion is a luxury, but that's not even the point of the documentary. It's like no one even bothered to listen and pay attention to the video and you all just looked at the visuals

[@chenism7]

diornotwar123 thank you for saying that! Indeed yes!

[@xugidayawan6079]

a documentary about the capitol of hunger games

[@boulshyte8932]

Xuxa Gidayawan calm down

[@Account.for.Comment]

Boul Shyte triggered

[@dominicweber]

Xuxa Gidayawan They actually used original Alexander McQueen pieces in the movies, because they found no costume designer to be able to be as crazy as said in the books. So they had to turn to high fashion, even though the pieces were... priceless, obviously. But well. That’s the power of perfectly designed clothes. They create a world only possible in movies.

[@ford2219]

But.. would Miranda Priestly approve? That's the real question. That's all.

[@kylenikkalizardo7408]

Ford2219 exactly my thoughts. Where the hell is she?

[@justineplease5196]

Anna wintour is miranda

[@nelialopez6519]

1 nod its good, 2 nods its very good

[@mikeylawrence4846]

im watching this in my sweats and food stained top. high fashion at it finest

[@0900McShizzle]

I have to admit that I don't care much for fashion but after watching this am astounded, fashion became art!

[@billcordell9797]

Looks like it will be good. I miss Diana Vreeland RIP. She started this whole thing with the metropolitan museum of art back in the early 80's. it has grown since Diana's death, but she should get a great deal of credit for this coming to light

[@gonzaloarvietti4920]

yeap the good fashion and celebrities were in the 80s early 90's

[@evanleal2714]

Why why why did they JUST have to mention Rihanna, Kim & Kanye...they are celebrities, they can BUY fashion, BUY the stylists there are way more iconic fashion influencers that don't ever get mentioned in anything. The fashion industry is way to obsessed now with keeping young and trendy

[@lilyash918]

They often get stuff that cost thousands of dollars for free even though they can afford it.

[@olavihekandjo2928]

Maybe because when Rih wears those designs they immediately start flying off the racks, which is how many unknown designers get a foothold

[@eloisagarcia3300]

This thing reminds me to the french nobility parties and extravagance before the revolution, spending fortunes in clothes and balls while poor people do not live but survive. Except this time we are giving our money to them freely

[@MADEbySOUL]

It is similar that it appear like these people are in their own bubble. However, I hope that the people and the cost of the tickets help more then consume.

[@olavihekandjo2928]

How did you give your money to them?

[@LiveAsDiva]

seriously guys.. its not about wealth or money.... its about the sophistication of fashion and style..... love it....!!! you dont have to buy it to admire it hunty

[@loukat126]

these art piece gave me goosebumps like wow i was so lost in this movie wow i loved it

[@garyrobertson6778]

"Wassup, Met Ball?!?" Classy.

[@VenusianTaureau]

Fashion is art because it represents freedom of expression. It is creativity expressed through the color, fabric and details of the garment. Fashion designers give you that inspiration through the clothes.

[@SASSY13169]

What about freedom from modern day slavery?

[@donde6961]

Dee Renee lol pretentious af! Say that to the minimum waged workers who’re working on those overpriced dresses

[@gazza4221]

I love the met ball for the fashion !!

[@eg-g]

Less fashion more compassion.

[@u4ttube]

all in the name of art

[@kiarasimpson9327]

It's 1.May.2017 Today and this happens to pop up on my screen :]

[@ericajaynexxx]

looks amazing

[@dominicweber]

Damn that movie made me happy

[@neshkiersten]

oh my gosh i think wanna see this

[@marthagomez4103]

ugh I hope they make another.

[@marcospablo4263]

Someone have a link to watch??

[@THATBITCHDEBBIE]

I'm sorry when they showed Anne Hathaway for that short split second I got the devil wears Prada flashbacks

[@brunopompilio]

Where can I watch

[@charicebiggestfan]

DONT HATE. APPRECIATE.

[@raisadiamantabingei8460]

Talks about a Chinese themed centered fashion event. Doesn't show a single Chinese designer/ celebrity that was attending

[@wardmybussy]

Raisa Diamanta Bingei Guo Pei culture was featured. Also, the fact that Guo Pei is the first Haute Culture in China and almost all fashion brands that are consumed in China are foreign

[@wardmybussy]

... makes it hard for them to show someone, other than Guo Pei, that is relevant and at least luxury brand level.

[@maniacram]

Well, as long as their real purpose of catering to the chinese market is taken care of, it doesn't matter, don't you know?

[@j.n2357]

Welcome to the Capitol and happy Hunger Games

[@sonielsoni2940]

Janine allein Zuhaus except no one is getting killed and it's a celebration of fashion and art as a whole and entertaining to everybody that watches it. And it's beautiful. And yes the people who attend it are millionaires....so? Get yo money and recognition and go.

[@Orion227]

What more can you ask from art? To help feed people!

[@Shelja2000]

Most of them were looking like people of the city in Hunger games movie.

[@grapefives7762]

Can she invite Meryl Streep,Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt do you guys get it

[@PunkPieBlog03]

Tell me it's releasing on Netflix

[@bettydarling9154]

Yaaaay first comment aside from that love the look of this!

[@pressurexz]

A documentary about rich people making event to make them feel good about themselves

[@lovelylady6011]

but this year, the first monday is in labour day lol

[@otherbully]

Rihanna was to die for in that dress.

[@MADEbySOUL]

I hope they focus more on the art of the designs but so far this trailer shows that the movie will be about getting ready for the event. I don't know why but when I saw this, I remembered The Capital from the Hunger Games. Perhaps it is because Jennifer Lawrence is there. After everything that has been happening...this seems so empty.

[@lughontheloo714]

Art is high fashion!

[@dsb188]

So no one clicked here because that lady looks like Rocky Dennis?

[@gigihadid3745]

meanwhile in the bathroom kylie jenner and bella hadid smoke cigarettes and weed

[@braddyhyperchavz2335]

I hope andy sacs and emily charlton doesnt stress themselves much during this gala.

[@tseamus8288]

Oh those Christian Dior by John Galliano and Yves Saint Laurent by Tom Ford...such magnificent pieces

[@metamorphosis2290]

Nice trailer, if they had a snap of Beyonce on the red carpet it would be even better.

[@micctan9928]

Metamorphosis : Beyoncé did not agree to be part of the documentary. 😞

[@officialafroprince1480]

I see met gala and Rihanna comes to mind.

[@drinkallthesunshine]

This is pathetic... Most artists are "struggling artists"... The "met gala" is only an exhibition of and for the elite, rich, and famous... True art is broadcast to all, yet at "the met", only the famous and rich get to view it.... Such an empty way of viewing the world.

[@gerardoarenasss]

drinkallthesunshine not really, this exhibitions get hundreds of regular people every year, this is just the fund raiser for the costume institute and the museum, if you give yourself a chsbyto see this documentary you'll probably be mesmerized by the amount of work and thought this has, is not only about a party and famous people, is about mixing clothes with art and giving people a perspective of what "costume" is and how this shape and affect our societies.

[@drinkallthesunshine]

Gerardo Arenas Exactly my point... True art should be available to whoever wants to see it... Not some fashion show for the rich and famous... It defeats the purpose of a gallery... the gallery is about viewing artwork, not whores like Rihanna and Beyoncé strutting down a carpet in a designer gown.... Most people only tune in to view the celebrities, not the art... Actually, nobody even sees the artwork really... Its just the runway walks that gets published.... It's fucking pathetic.

[@AbsolumentFabuleuse]

drinkallthesunshine Hear, hear!

[@tee_savy100]

It would be nice if they incorporated all types of artists from all walks of life.

[@ModupeOloruntoba]

drinkallthesunshine but the exhibition is open to the public after this party...

[@OEKIE77]

Rayon. Made in China... (Nice one, Anna...) x x x

[@ch00kch00ktare]

I thought that was myrtle snow in the thumbnail byeeee

[@dsjiyeyo]

first day in may is a labor day..

[@lucasadamis334]

1:26

[@9999garv]

what always surprises me is is how these met balls and other fashion events soo purely american!!! i mean, they have chinese installations/ art. decorations that are borderline like chinese restaurants , but fail to invite leading chinese actors/ artists, to experience it/ participate in it. this year, they could have invited the japanese actors/ artists/ fashion designers for their take on Rei Kawakubo, but turns out that kardashians are more important!!! the least the can do is to compulsarily make their guests stick to the theme, to respect the artist!!

[@emnaf1687]

can you recommend movies like this? the kind that would cultivate you about the fashion field

[@beautifullEternal]

Emna F There are some good ones in the recommendations. Excuse tl;dr *The September issue* is a documentary that digs into the biggest issue of American Vogue and Anna Wintour's role in the whole thing; gross displays of materialism ensues. *Diana Vreeland: The eye has to travel* is about a legendary fashion editor. Also *Scatter my ashes at Bergdorf's* about the luxury department store. Though there's a lot about the 'fashion world' on it's own, I enjoy documentaries about designers more. It's like a little glimpse in their head. Personally speaking, Karl Lagerfeld is like a human version of a dramatic fashion quote blog, or the Urban Dictionary of fashion. If you can stand him, there's quite a few out there about him. His longevity and status kind of make him an icon. He's been around and seen some shit. *Lagerfeld Confidential* was great. There was also this great Dutch documentary 'Close up: Lagerfeld vs YSL' which is actually mostly spoken in English, I don't know if there's subs. It's about Karl and Yves and them being frenemies. There's a book called *A beautiful fall* by Alicia Drake. I haven't read it yet, but it's also supposed to be about those two and the shift in culture at the time. But yeah, Lagerfeld is probably one of the most materialistic and weirdest dudes out there, most people recoil from him. Some one almost the opposite is Vivienne Westwood. More of the punk and counter culture variety. *Do it yourself* also tells about the transition from tailored to fast fashion in England and some more cultural stuff. Also Westwoods ethics and view of things. There's also *Valentino: The last emperor* Which is lovely. One of the last great designers of a previous era of fashion, who actually understands old school glamour. And, not necessarily 'fashion' But *Paris is Burning* is a glimpse in 80's ( I think? ) drag culture in New York, specifically the Ball Scene. It's on Netflix and KZbin, and STILL relevant. But that's just my taste. And yeah all the Chanel and Dior documentaries, they're all great, but after a while they get stale.

[@emnaf1687]

beautifullEternal thank you so much I made a to watch list out of your comment

[@aimmagadia7691]

what is the sense of this movie?

[@freesimorgh]

Are us peasants even allowed to watch this? Met Gala is such a vanity fair!

[@evieiles1329]

I am wearing Tommy Helfigure

[@hellosunshine7895]

EVIE ILES lol

[@enriquemoon]

My unpopular opinion: vogue magazine needs fresh blood... Top to bottom

[@poppypopper7123]

Do you want to watch a movie about Anna Wintour? Watch "The Devil wears Prada"

[@rayoasoko7412]

WOW.. LOOK... RICH PEOPLE.

[@wellrad8879]

OMG GAGAAAA

[@TubularOfficial]

okay i like the met ball and fashion but i DO NOT care about it THIS much Anna

[@monocerotisdust8519]

Meanwhile, the poors getting poorers, riches getting riches....

[@maffmc725]

Met gala

[@Orion227]

Hmmm reminds me of this story of “The Emperor’s New Clothes” ... while 2/3rds of the world starves???

[@balkaransingh7372]

I would not watch this, even if someone paid me to watch it

[@aquariusliu24]

isn't it ironic that many Chinese celebrities also went to that year's gala but the movie only showed Western celebrities? and they afraid of looking racist… 🙄sure

[@delsongalasinao706]

I wanna be the editor in chief of Vogue and change the definition of fashion and arts. I want fashion and arts be hopufull indie optimism and touch many people's lives.

[@aidepaul534]

All Anna ever does is cross her arms and disapprove.

[@misspeppermintpattie]

Justine Bieber, she-he is female by birth.

[@limitone9564]

The devil is in materialism...

[@aj7952]

why do high fashion creators always look so much like old witches whose evil has drained them of all beauty? 😂

[@kashishahmad5818]

Lol

[@brainey001]

It's funny Rihanna was hosting considering she is in the top 10 worst dressed celebrity list.... Being 'fashionable' and honored should be more than a name and what you wear to red carpets... You should style yourself and dress to impress 247, wether you are going to a red carpet, gym or Walmart. And that is what being truly a trend setter is about.

[@lalapachou]

AKA how art is perceived by privileged rich celebrities.

[@annaharicharan3968]

While people are dying of hunger these people are wasting hundreds of thousands of dollars on clothes they'll only wear once…

[@gemusefreund2652]

This is what people make of art they make a rich b* society out of it and a Chinese restaurant is also pretty f* it i love art but this is like the olympics not about sport but all the other things

[@tee_savy100]

2017's met ball a flop

[@kajakkille]

Oh no, not another film about Anna Wintour and the pretentious fashion world.

[@kamelarosa]

Simon Kefas why are you watching the trailer ?

[@AryaBeltaine]

im genuinely interested as to why you clicked on this trailer if you hate the fashion world lmao

[@aBirdAndHisBoy]

I think it's more pretentious to wear clothes made in 3rd world country factories versus produced by fairly paid artisans in America/Europe...

[@JordanjamesX]

This movie is tacky I will not watch a movie about privileged rich celebrities.🤔

[@TheMulti12345]

JordanjamesX i have seen it. its great actually. not about celebrities, but art, gorgeous exhibition and beautiful dresses made by very skilled people, designed by artists. btw, they showed justin bieber as someone so damn foolish XD, met gala lasts only few minutes in the end

[@gonzaloarvietti4920]

yes, plus name jennifer lawrence and rihanna like if those were good examples of icons

[@TheMulti12345]

Gonzalo Arvietti people make people famous xd blame yourself

[@freyamccullough8326]

Nah, you'll just watch movies where they cast them and pay them millions.

[@tomclay-michael971]

Get fucked who are you

[@EjPwned]

Meanwhile, in The Capitol...

[@modfus]

What a load of bollocks. These people wouldn't have a clue about fine art - they probably find Warhol deeply aesthetic. Lagerfeld was the only one with any perspective.

[@reason4fairness]

I love fashion and creativity but what I'm seeing here is just a showcase of excess and privilege. I dont feel in the Met Gala they recognize the designers and thebm stylists who tire all day just to make the celebrities look like they made this decision😒

[@abdallahmohamedmonir4104]

Poor and gagged

[@aaronxalapa]

How successful way to self aggrandizing something so vain and shallow

[@chrismealer4775]

Today's major celebs for Met Gala Kim Beyonce Rihanna Gaga 80's and 90's major stars for Met gala Michael Jackson Madonna Prince Missy Elliot

[@gossipgi]

its all bullshit made to look glamorous

[@zombiebunnyposse4273]

And this is one example as to why our country is going down the toilet.

[@ListenToNatalie]

sad. empty. useless....

[@evas9735]

Snort worthy.

[@uhuh30]

I could make a better Met gala

[@michaela_nk]

kinda cool, kinda DEFINITELY not interested- "documentary" my ass. prediction: this will take a big L! xoxo, gossip girl

[@BCY88]

why don't they have anyone actually Chinese to design or decorate?

[@AfriAFAA_NEWS]

where are black people in the making of the Met?

[@Momo74153]

We know exactly where they are!

[@dominicweber]

DoughtyDiana Who cares about that? Why is always someone searching for problems? The question should be: why are there not more amazingly talented and creative people as in the Met, working and making us dream, no matter their age, gender, ethnicity or sexuality? There shouldn't be black people first of all, there should be creative and professional people first of all. If they are black, so be it. No one cares about that in fashion.

[@queendellux8360]

smh always thinking everything is "racist"

[@kiddobix]

This is the epitome of excess! It's distasteful!

[@damndesign72]

Say NO to FUR.

[@Zenebatos]

Most Anticipated Event of The Year??? wait a minute.... you guys are pushin it too far... take it from a 9 to a 4. There are bigger events than this 600 pax. Tomorrowland has 185,000. FIFA. Olympics. Oscars, Emmys, etc.

[@romeblanchard3419]

Rip off movie, rip off fashion

[@luhole]

Rihanna's fur is disgusting, and so is all Anna Wintour's almost singlehanded repopularisation of the fur industry since the 90s. These women should be ashamed of themselves.

[@goodgirlkay]

luhole Why? I have no problem with killing animals for food or fur.

[@0900McShizzle]

I have to admit that I don't care much for fashion but after watching this am astounded, fashion became art!
