Met Gala 2018

I’m like an entire month late but I don’t even care. Almost all of the outfits worn were literally all fantastic and beautiful. I’m gonna do a completely unwarranted run-through of some of my favorite looks.

Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination

- Rihanna -

Maison Margiela by John Galliano

Okay. Look at that FUCKING BEADING. That is so intricate. Now, the theme of the ball is Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination, and that’s exactly what Rihanna is serving. Pope realness. I love her Christain Louboutin shoes - and I can always appreciate an ankle strap heel. Smokey eyes, super cute clutch, I am ready to get blessed, bitch.

- Winnie Harlow -

Tommy Hilfiger

Winnie Harlow looks so amazing. The crown is so beautiful. The dress is simple, very classy, and it just adds to that amazing headpiece. The silhouette of this look is absolutely s t u n n i n g. Winnie’s almost kind of giving me like bridal vibes. Anyone who says this look is boring or plain can throw some rounds with me.

- Katy Perry -

Versace

The wings. The wings. This is an absolutely beautiful piece by Versace. I have to be honest, I’m not particularly a fan of Katy’s, but this was a really great choice for the gala. Not only did she go along with the theme, but Donatella Versace was one of the co-chairs for the event. Well played. Her pixie cut works perfectly with those angel wings. It’s damn near seamless. I’m living for the glam chainmail look over the gold minidress - especially the sleeves. And of course, those shoes are an A+.

- Lily Collins -

Givenchy

This kind of futuristic chic nun ensemble is flawless. My favorite part has to be the shoulders of the dress. Makeup and nails match accordingly to the rest of her outfit. The rosary was a really creative and subtle touch. The headpiece is so beautiful, it’s a Clare Waight Keller crown. Supposedly, this look was inspired by the painting Our Lady of Sorrows. I love how elegantly this whole thing was put together, and it’s so appropriate for the theme of the event.

- Rosie Huntington-Whiteley -

Ralph Lauren

This dress is literally heavenly. It’s a beautiful Ralph Lauren dress, adorned with bejeweled roses and it’s perfect. The cape of the gown makes her look even more ethereal and angelic. Rosie’s wearing a twisted chignon halo, which has to be my favorite part of the entire look. It’s a simple piece, but it just brings the entire fit together in my opinion.

- Kate Bosworth -

Oscar de la Renta

Kate looks so angelic. Her white with a touch of gold ensemble is so breathtakingly gorgeous. I can and will always appreciate a beautiful veil like this one that she’s wearing - which did have slits for her arms. Apparently, Kate was also sort of reflecting her own bridal look and honestly if this was anything like what she wore to her own wedding, I’m sure she looked just as stunning then, too.

- SZA -

Atelier Versace

SZA completely stunned the red carpet. She killed it. Her headpiece was one of the most beautiful ones I’ve seen, solely because it’s like celestial. The halo headpiece, as well as her golden teardrops, are Chrishabana. The top half of her gown is like this bejeweled piece of artwork and it cascades down into a ruffly pink cloud of perfection. The silhouette of this whole look is gorgeous. Needless to say, SZA looks otherworldly.

- Priyanka Chopra -

Ralph Lauren

Priyanka is so fierce in this gown. The elaborate hood she wore was hand beaded with Swarovski crystals and gold beads - it allegedly took up to 250 hours to make! She wore a burgundy velvet dress and Cartier jewelry. This look has to be one of my top 3 favorites. Priyanka’s choice for the gala was perfect, and she looks so beautiful.

- Zendaya -

Atelier Versace

Omggg. Zendaya’s Joan of Arc custom gown has to be one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen. Law Roach (Zendaya’s stylist) said he first got the inspiration for this gown in a dream. Paired with this amazing armored dress, Tiffany & Co. jewelry and gold ankle strapped platform heels. I love everything about this Joan inspired get-up. Zen really went with something unique from everyone else, and I literally will not ever get over this dress.

- Stella Maxwell -

Moschino

Y’all are probably going to disagree with me, but I think this is a masterpiece. This column gown is covered with the painted faces of Madonna (Mary). The jewels and beads embroidered onto this gown really make it pop - almost creating a type of mosaic from the top to bottom. Stella paired this dress with subtle David Yurman jewelry and Casadei shoes. I think it’s lovely.

- Lana Del Rey, Jared Leto and Alessandro Michele -

Gucci

I’m 100% living for Lana’s gown. She still somehow managed to bring in her bohemian kind of style while looking like she straight up walked out of an Italian Renaissance painting. My favorite part of the dress itself has to be the golden heart with the seven daggers stabbed into it. Her winged halo headpiece is so gorgeous and so intricate. Literally as always, a 10/10 for Queen Lana.

I’m going to combine Jared and Alessandro together, solely because both of their attire look fairly similar to me and they both went for the “modern” Jesus type thing. Jared’s golden crown looks so heavenly, and I love it. You can tell how much time was put into creating it. I thought it was creative to have paired his ensemble with a priest’s stole. I would have liked to see just a little more from Alessandro’s crown, but that’s just me (Sorry!). Otherwise, his embroidered suit is absolutely lovely and I love that the three of them all matched.

- Nicki Minaj -

Oscar de la Renta

Nicki never fails to stun everyone with her powerful and fierce looks. She decided to go a different route from everyone else, and it turned out so good. This fit was put together to represent the Devil, as stated by Nicki herself. She wore Tiffany & Co. jewelry, and a beautiful black and red headdress. Her shoes were Le Silla ‘Gaga’ and were super cute. Nicki delivered, as usual.

- Blake Lively -

Versace

This. She looks so elegant and classy, yet so sexy. And I’m mad about it. This custom Versace number’s embroidered bodice alone took over 600 hours to make. And I’m pretty sure the skirt has mesh around her legs. Plus, she wore $2 million worth of jewelry to top it off - including diamond and ruby rings, golden bracelets, 30 carat diamond and emerald earrings, and a custom halo encrusted with 100 carats of champagne diamonds. Christian Louboutin heels, jaw-dropping attire, and my tears.

If you read all this, thanks and I’m sorry, lmao
