Met Gala Countdown: Anna
Anna is largely responsible for making The Met Gala what it is today: Fashion’s biggest night. (Nope, not the Oscars.) And a giant source of funding for the museum.
Below, a look back at her many appearances and style choices. Mostly in Chanel. The Devil Wears Chanel.
She usually goes relatively simple, because it’s not about her. (It’s totally about her.)
My favorites are the long-sleeved peach/black/silver/purple gown and the silver/gray look with the strong-shoulder bolero.

2015 Met Gala: “China: Through The Looking Glass.”
Look, there’s only one right way to approach The Met Gala, OK?
Total Carpet Shut-Down. Behold, Karen Elson:
The Making Of.
The bodice adornments were applied on the body. Mindful of risking Karen’s fair complexion and red hair veering too far into Elizabethan territory, her glam squad avoided high hair, white-out paint and the centered cupid’s bow. They instead gave her a modern touch via sleek hair, a slightly-winged eye and full lip, rather than replicating Karen as Queen Elizabeth by Kevyn Aucoin, below right.
The Carry-Off.
This was a whole lot of look, that could have gone wrong in less capable hands. Karen carried it with a mix of regal air, humor, ease, and joy. And she Shut. It. Down.
Met Gala Countdown: Royal Edition
Princess Diana, 1996 Met Gala.
A slip dress, appropriately enough for the 90s.
Navy satin, black lace – – and you know that ain’t no costume jewelry.
This was John Galliano’s first-ever gown for Dior. Fashion history.
The dress.
The jewels, hair and makeup.
The back, the bag and the bubbly.
The Di shy-side-eye.
Vintage Style at The Jazz Age Lawn Party
Michael Arenella and his Dreamland Orchestra twice every summer take over Governors Island, just off the Southern tip of Manhattan, for The Jazz Age Lawn Party. The ferry to the island turns the clock back nearly a century, as Jazz Age fashion, music, dancing, cocktails and cars await party-goers. Inspired by the era of Gatsby, dolls and dandies don their finest and come out to play. This year brought a scorching heat wave to the party and IT. WAS. HOT.
But that just meant more delicious cocktails by St. Germain for all!

Met Gala 2015 Round-Up – – “China: Through The Looking Glass”
MET GALA 2015 ROUND-UP
“CHINA: THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS”
1. Too much showgirl. I thought what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas??
2. Too much boring. Boring pisses me off at awards shows. Boring makes me *stabby* at the Met Gala.
Or…….. in the words of my sister: “Not enough crazy shit.” Truth.
Beyonce, Givenchy
Girl. Put some clothes on.
Zhang Ziyi, Carolina Herrera
Ahhhh, a palate cleanser of elegance.
Oh, good. More Pink Prada Problems.
Olivia Wilde. No.
Kerry Washington. No.
And did Lily Pulitzer have a hand in this?
Reese Witherspoon, Jason Wu
Look. Wear some trite to the Met Gala?
Like, oh say, a plain red strapless?
You’re banned. For life.
From *everything*.
Zendaya, Fausto Puglisi
My favorite.
Sienna Miller, Thakoon
Also my favorite.
SJP, H&M
Eh. I mean, ok, it’s bringing the crazy so there’s that. But, as much as I despise SJP, I give her due props for the way she usually brings it at the Met Gala. She goes for it. And she went for it here, but it’s not terribly attractive and reads as costume. Sure, the party is for the The Met’s Costume Institute, but that doesn’t make it a masquerade ball.
(P.s. Thanks to all outlets noting that this is actually *custom* H&M. Because, y’know, otherwise I was going to be confused and go look for it at the mall.)
Fan Bing Bing, Christopher Bu
And, finally…..the one that made me stare, slack-jawed.
It fits the theme while being artful and fabulous, but not costume-y. It’s %1,000 Met Gala-worthy. It’s elegant but full of BAM.
The cape evokes stained glass (“through the looking glass,” indeed!) and Fan’s carrying the look with the air of resplendence it calls for and the “I got this” ease that great style is made of.
