In my view, the Met Gala and Vogue’s veneer changed when Andre Leon Talley left. He knew the fabrics, designers and era of the gowns when the women were at the foot of the steps and could switch up references in seconds. He was the art history historian to Diana Vreeland’s museum know how. And to replace him with IG stars? Come on.
@nonameface908 ай бұрын
Wish I could like this more than just once. The optics and feel of the MET Gala truly shifted for me after that too. Nowadays it is all about biggest sns moment, sensationalisation of everything and thus quite shallow impression for me. Yes, there are inspiring/interesting tidbits, but the whole thing seems just more artificial than artful about the fashion/theme...and don't get me start about the decline of originality and being actually on theme.

I also really miss ALT on the microphone, but I also understand that he’s not the most accessible person to the average Joe. So having someone like Liza Koshy or Emma Chamberlain is much more likely to bring in the general public. However, while I say that, I’d like to see Luke Meagher from hautelemode or Mina Le take over something about it in the next few years, because they combine the two worlds really well. Theyre social media but alas fashion history knowledge

Agree with you, ALT was very knowledgeable about fashion and spoke accordingly. Relatability in this case is pretty irrelevant because while the event is telecasted for the general public, the event is by the wealthy for the wealthy and never truly “accessible” to begin with. I actually think getting people that are very knowledgeable and don’t speak in “layman’s terms” when it comes to events like this is a good thing because it reminds people of what the event is about and actually for. That no, this millionaire/billionaire is NOT a relatable person and this is not a lifestyle or aesthetic you can realistic aim for if you’re not mega rich. We need those sobering reminders because getting “relatable” influencers who are just as rich is leading people to believe otherwise.

my birthday gift to myself in 2017 was a trip to nyc specifically to go to the rei kawakubo/comme des garcons/art of the in between exhibit at the met. it was fabulous as i was able to see pieces from comme des garcons colllections that inspired me when i was studying fashion design at university. i have mixed feelings though about the gala in its current form… i get that it’s (essentially) a costume party fundraiser, but the fashion purist in me wishes it was a little more intellectual and a little less drag show with whoever’s hot & of the moment. a little more individual style focused and a lot less celebrity stylist driven. however, if the result is hundreds of thousands coming to see these (literal) works of art from some of the greatest creative minds ever… that’s a win.

Another great video. I love learning how two women started the Met Gala. Then Elenor Lambert came in riding on her white horse to save a man. Another woman Diana Vreeland lend it flavor and worked her magic despite being sick. Lastly, Anna Wintour gave it the clout it richly deserves. She made it accessible to fashion insiders and the people who are voyeurs. I really don’t get the hate for such a dynamic woman who is still relevant in her 70s. She’s aspiration for women like me who don’t think retirement and being irrelevant is the only route to being old. I love getting to know a little more about Oscar de la Renta. His wife, Annette was a powerhouse. If it wasn’t for her, he would not be so vested in the arts as he is. People do not give Oscar de la Renta his flowers as they should for being as great of a designer as Cristobol Balenciaga, Christian Dior and Hubert de Givenchy. It’s a shame. He’s like Giorgio Armani in this respect. Both love to design and going into the office. Both aren’t given enough credit where credit is due. Also, Oscar de la Renta had a good friendship with Anna Wintour. It’s a shame one both aren’t given the respect they deserve.

Mr. de la Renta and his wife, Annette are patrons of the arts. Both are lovely people. The only newer designer who feels the same is Thom Browne. Possibly Rick Owens but he’s divisive. Maybe that’s something Vogue World can do. Give American and other countries the same gravitas we are spoon fed us about the top fashion houses.

Thank you for your incredible research!❤. People can complain endlessly about the current state of the Met Gala BUT Anna Wintour stated that the Met Gala needs to reflect the current culture of the times. I think people(myself included) have more of an issue with the CULTURE that is being reflected. It is what it is. She could easily make the Met Gala a super high brow event with industry insiders but that would alienate the vast majority of the general public. She doesn't want it to be like the Oscars where most of the people(at least in America) have never heard of or seen any of the nominated films and has no idea who any of the people being celebrated are. People feel left out and The Oscars have become a "culture war" issue with the elites vs. the "regular " people. Several years ago, l was looking at red carpet looks from some MTV Awards show. I think this is when they started to invite social media personalities. I had absolutely no idea who any of these people were. I didn't care and was not upset but it was very clear that this event was definitely not being targeted for me.

I think thats a really interesting perspective. It would make sense thag the celebrities that are permitted invitations have a following of their own, a connection between the aspirational world and the real world because it actually gets the public interested to go to the exhibition also.

I have a question…am I the only one who noticed the male photographer at the top of the stairs in a sleeveless sequined gown? I thought I was going crazy but I’ve watched several videos and that is definitely a man in a gown.

Was there a particular reason why you snubbed Katy Perry, especially in 2019.

Honestly, I just didn’t think about it, I probably should have. I have nothing against the woman 🥰

I also miss Andre. And I hate the way STRAY KIDS (kpop group from s korea) was treated tonight. Ridiculed by paps. This history would have meant something to me yesterday. American VOGUE should make this right and include the designer
@understitchYT8 ай бұрын
What do you mean they were treated badly? I know the interview was awkward because they dont understand the kpop world and how their idols are meant to behave, but I dont think they meant any malice
@understitchYT8 ай бұрын
Okay Ive since seen the way the photographers were shouting at them. How awfully disrespectful and low key racist and ignorant at the end when they said arigato knowing full well they are Korean 😬 really really awful

shame the wintour + vreeland thumbnail didn't work and you changed it. vogue has a met gala video in which they just gloss over vreeland unceremoniously, when she is who made spectacle out of the exhibits and events out of the galas.
@understitchYT8 ай бұрын
Its already had an uptick in views because I changed the thumbnail 🤷 Id rather people click and maybe learn more about her than dont click and never know who she was or why she was in the thumbnail in the first place

@@understitchYT oh, ms. understitch, that was not critical of you at all. thank you for answering. as i said, i understand that the first thumb didn't work. my comment was just a little lament on the slow erasure of vreeland.
