MET GALA 2023: A TRIBUTE TO KARL LAGERFELD
The theme for this year’s Met Gala is “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty,” which pays tribute to the late fashion designer who passed away in 2019. Lagerfeld was a legend in the fashion industry and served as the creative director of fashion houses such as Chanel and Fendi. The Met Gala’s theme will showcase his work and influence on the fashion industry. Attendees can expect to see many haute couture looks inspired by Lagerfeld’s designs.
SOME SPICE WITH KARL LAGERFELD’S LEGACY
Lagerfeld’s selection as the theme for this year’s Met Gala has not come without controversy. The late designer was known for his unapologetically polemical comments on a variety of topics, including xenophobic and fatphobic remarks. Many have criticized his past statements and questioned whether he deserves to be celebrated this way. AP Entertainment Writer Leanne Italie will be breaking down Lagerfeld’s multifaceted legacy throughout the night.
DIAMONDS OF THE WORLD
Anna Wintour, who is the host of the Met Gala, will be present at the event along with the co-chairs, including Dua Lipa, Michaela Coel, Penelope Cruz, and Roger Federer. The Vogue’s livestream host from last year, La La Anthony, will be hosting it again this year, along with Derek Blasberg, Chloe Fineman, and special correspondent Emma Chamberlain, according to Vogue. As always, the Met Gala will feature an A-list guest list, with celebrities from the worlds of fashion, film, music, and art expected to attend. While the guest list is kept tightly under wraps, leaks do happen, and AP National Writer Jocelyn Noveck will be bringing us the latest news on who to expect on the iconic Met steps.
THE FASHION PLAY
The Met Gala is known for pushing the boundaries of what is considered “acceptable” on the red carpet, and this year will be no different.
