WOW! just perused the image gallery for the over at Harper's Bazaar and it's not only super-uninspiring, but for maybe a couple of people who understood the assignment. it's the beauty aesthetics of most of the people attending that is very late-stage capitalism with a bad take on trans-humanism. the 1% and their millionaire lackeys are really into that waxy Real Doll skin aesthetics. baffling.

Harper's BAZAAR · Every Celebrity Red Carpet Look at the 2024 Met GalaBy Joel Calfee

the theme is about Time for Spring or something like that. this has nothing to do with it but because it's Cardi B. and she's always an exagerá, she gets to ride the mammoth

the theme is THE GARDEN OF TIME and it's exhibit is of "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion".

but Lil Nas is totally . so did he nail the theme? yay or nay?

am from NYC. i used to see SJP around the village from time to time.

this is the most Sarah Jessica Parker thing Sarah Jessica Parker could do. i give her credit for being so committed to being the quintessence of the GenX fashionista.

also, fuck Andy Cohen for giving us the Kardashians.

Cynthia Erivo understood the assignment.

GRETA LEE channeling her inner spring manic pixie

OOOOH! and Taylor Russell (have no idea who she is) is a woodland sprite? saw an earlier pic but the wood grain wasn't showing in it

i do not know who John O'Connor is, but this muthafucker is wearing Crocs to the Met Gala. respect.

LMAO Nicki Minaj absolutely understood the assignment; but am noticing how Cardi B is out Nicki'ing Nicki 🤨

OMG Doja Cat literally came dressed in a big ass WET white t-shirt. no wonder she has to bunch it up strategically against her coochie. what is her character though?!?

ANGEL REESE has a future in fashion after she retires from the . don't care for the dress but she can wear the fuck out of whatever she wants.

ANOK YAI? girl, i do not know who you are but i do know you can play the next Tinkerbelle. all she needs is the wings.

is Michael Shannon holding a bag of onion flavored potato chips made by ?!?!

and WTF is Michael Shannon doing all up in this joint?!?!

Da'Vine Joy Randolph is the Woke Beauty that, like a momma bear, tore to pieces the muthafucker that tried to kiss her while asleep.

HARRIS REED serving Florence Welch and not-so-virgin apparitions in the woods

don't know what's going on with this inkspot mess between Hannah Bagshawe and Eddie Redmayne but am totally loving it.

MOTH OR BUTTEFLY? J. Harrison Ghee absolutely understood the assignment.

@blogdiva Usher seems to have a quest for me.

@selzero @blogdiva “It’s dangerous to go alone! Take this.”

"My work here is done"
"But you didn't do anything!"
"... didn't I?"

Swoops cape, vanishes in a puff of smoke.

@ramsey @selzero @blogdiva

@blogdiva I’ve seen that dress from a half dozen different angles now, and I dislike all of them. I love the colors, but I do not like the shape at all.

@blogdiva

As requested, the enclosed photo contains my attempt at suitable ALT text. This look was stunning.

@blogdiva it’s at@least a whiff of “garden”. Some of these outfits are just garden variety 😝

@blogdiva
YAY!
I could care less how she dresses, she is one of the most talented musicians alive.
She deserves everyone's respect!!

@blogdiva
"Mom can we have Hershey's kisses?"

"We have them at home"

Hershey's kisses at home:

@blogdiva girl who met a man not a bear in the woods.

@blogdiva This one immediately reminded me of these sorts of statues.

@TurtleJoe it does! thanks for pointing it out.

@blogdiva

Impossible to look away from this item (Taylor Russell is a Canadian actress). Even on the Harper's gallery page, this look stands out immediately.

Everything about how she embodies it is so well-composed and perfectly understated.

The wood grain your keen eye was able to discern is from a trompe l’oeil bodice that's actually made of body-cast wood.

Complete with the painted floral branches, it's truly a work of art.

Amazing. :)

@blogdiva SJP looks fabulous. She always does. She was made for these events. She always looks like she’s having the best time, dressed up at these events.
And yeah. I’ve been over Andy Cohen for a few years now.
And why do the Kardashians/Jenners have to be there every year?
Kendall, yeah but not the other ones.

@blogdiva@mastodon.social I waited tables in the village in the 90s, she was one of the good famous people to serve

@blogdiva in the genre of "garden of time totally means a large monochromatic head to toe garment" I think he places, it seems vaguely organic and vaguely futuristic. The lapel flower lets it qualify at the barest level lol

I also just personally like the concept of clothing panels held in place tightly by lots of buttons and loops, pretty cool

@blogdiva no but at least he’s being creative and bringing an original look. And he looks great.

@blogdiva garden of time. All were so dull and most totally off theme but for as you said maybe 3 or 4?

Yawn.

I would have worn something from Iris Van Herpen to meet the theme. Her stuff uses time, nature, transformation in her work. And it’s gorgeous.

@blogdiva I absolutely love the fact that well over half the folks pictured here are either Black or People of Color.
