![]() Serena van der Who? Blake is the most radiant of goddesses in this look, and I’m not hard-pressed to say she pulls it off better than her former fashionista character ever could. She is the beginning and the end, the alpha and the omega, the king of kings and queen of queens, and we’re all just lucky enough to be alive at the same time. And impress SHE DID.Īs far as I’m concerned, she’s the new pope. Rihanna is consistently on point with the Met Gala’s theme, and since she was co-chairing this year there is no way she was not gonna impress. Way back when I used Tumblr on the reg, I had a tag I added to every Rihanna-related post I reblogged that was “how is rihanna even real” and it’s a question I have yet to answer to this day. So, without further ado and in no particular order (except the first two), here are my 15 favorite 2018 Met Gala looks: And this explanation of the Gala’s theme by Laird Borrelli-Persson over at Vogueputs into words exactly what I was excited to see interpreted in what the celebs wore. The 2018 theme was chosen to create a dialogue between fashion and the masterworks of religious art at the Met:īy placing fashion within “the broader context of religious artistic production” (like paintings and architecture), Costume Institute curator in charge Andrew Bolton, working alongside colleagues from the Met’s medieval department and the Cloisters, aims to show how “material Christianity” has helped form “the Catholic imagination.” The intersection of faith and fashion, the sacred and profane, as it were, has not always been easy…but the interplay between the two has inspired some awe-inspiring sartorial innovation.įashion is art. Given the impact art has on a culture (and vice versa), I’d argue everyone should take a few art history classes, but that’s another topic for another time. It’s another thing entirely to really know what you’re seeing. It’s one thing to just go to an art museum and look at what you see. To complete that minor, I had to take a few art history classes. In addition to an English degree, I graduated from college with a minor in Fine Arts (I know right, how marketable am I?). “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination” The notoriously harsh fashion critic also called it a “very triumphant look.I’m no fashion blogger (clearly), but the looks at the 2018 Met Gala certainly gave me a lot of feels that I need to do something with. Each one was completely finished, completely perfect and there was a papal tiara to go with it.” “She had the design made in cream, gray and black. “She asked John Galliano to design a look which was an homage to the Catholic Church,” Wintour said, adding that the designer crafted the labor-intensive look three times over. She also revealed that a lot more work went into the jewel-encrusted gown that first meets the eye. Though the Catholic Church was probably none too impressed with the skin-baring nod to the Holy Father, Wintour was charmed. The singer, 30, served as host for the 2018 “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination” Met Gala, making jaws drop with a sexy glittering look inspired by the pope. ![]() ![]() “I can never get enough of Rihanna’s style … I think there’s a real love of fashion with Rihanna,” the Vogue editor-in-chief said in a new video, “And how lucky are we to be able to enjoy it?” No one rules the Met Gala red carpet quite like Rihanna, and Anna Wintour has taken note.
