True traditions must always be respected<\/strong>. Said banal popular, but for many a real lifestyle … In these days we were all ready for the most iconic and extravagant fashion event of the year: The Met Gala<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Every first Monday of May<\/em>, famous international stars perform in all their uniqueness at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The Met Gala<\/strong> has become a real annual fashion celebration<\/strong>, but above all a fundraiser for the Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum<\/strong> which with the 2019 edition reaches the record sum of 15 million dollars<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Needless to say, this year’s Gala was postponed<\/strong> due to COVID-19<\/strong>. However, nothing prevents us from going back and retracing the more particular looks that kept us glued to the screen.<\/p>\n

Let’s go back<\/strong> in time. We will be immediately on the 2019 red carpet<\/strong> with the theme: Camp: Notes on Fashion<\/strong>. Dressing in camp style means being free to express yourself,<\/strong> and these days is a great social message<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

All that remains is to make way for sequins,\u00a0extreme outfits<\/strong> with great trainings and vibrant colors<\/strong>, which give life to a red carpet where everything is possible and nothing is trivial<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Emily Ratajkowski<\/strong> <\/span><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Let’s start with a bang.\u00a0Emily Ratajkowski<\/a><\/span><\/strong>\u00a0does not need big presentations because in one way or another everyone is well aware of it (even if in most cases not really dressed).<\/p>\n

Even at Met 2019<\/strong> he had no intention of covering himself too much and parading in all his beauty with a\u00a0Peter Dundas<\/a><\/strong><\/span>\u00a0dress<\/strong>, the more I see that I don’t see<\/strong>, totally covered with sequins<\/strong> and silver paillettes. A circle with two large white wings on the sides make it fly directly into the world of fairy tales<\/strong>, although in reality the fairies of the stories I read as a child I did not remember exactly like that.<\/p>\n

The fact is that with its look it makes a sensation even now and once again it prints the image of its breathtaking body<\/strong> in everyone’s mind.<\/p>\n

Katy Perry<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Katy Perry<\/strong> <\/a><\/span>‘s interpretation still remains, after a year, one of the most discussed<\/strong> and original<\/strong> to have paraded on the famous red carpet. A human candlestick<\/strong> first, and a giant hamburger<\/strong> then, all strictly by\u00a0Moschino<\/a><\/strong>. Surely the pop-star still attracts our eyes and is hardly forgotten.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Jared Leto<\/h2>\n

\"\"Another outfit that I want to propose is that of\u00a0Jared Leto<\/strong><\/a> <\/span>inspired by an unforgettable concept of the creative director of\u00a0Gucci<\/a><\/span><\/strong>. Alessandro Michele<\/strong> on the Gucci 2018 catwalk shows model shows that exhibit, as a normal accessory, the reproduction of their head.<\/strong> So Jered thought well that her sparkling red sequined long dress was not flashy enough and combined it with the reproduction of his face<\/strong> elegantly gripped as a common accessory.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ezra Miller<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

At this point we would have to say down the mask!<\/strong> More than for the\u00a0Burberry<\/a><\/strong><\/span>\u00a0pinstripe suit embellished by the shiny corset at the waist, Ezra Miller<\/a> amazes everyone for the make up<\/strong>. A surrealist outfit<\/strong> with attention to the smallest details: from white enamel nails to very make-up eyes<\/strong> and repeatedly drawn on the star’s face. If you feel fixed, don’t worry, maybe that’s what the actor wanted.<\/p>\n

Cara Delevingne<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Cara Delevingne<\/strong><\/a>, wearing a Dior<\/a> outfit<\/strong>, interpreted the theme of the event becoming a spokesman for the LGBT community<\/strong> in an absolutely ironic way. The rainbow becomes a dress<\/strong>, and on the head a hat with bananas, mouths and fried eggs certainly does not go unnoticed. A not really comfortable headgear, but which certainly in its extravagance launches a funny and important message at the same time.<\/p>\n

Naomi Campbell<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

How can we forget the panther of the Naomi Campbell<\/strong><\/a> catwalks … At Met 2019 she made her name stand out with her all-pink Valentino<\/strong><\/a> dress. Proud look that would intimidate anyone, puts everyone back in his place in the blink of an eye. Woe to think it is too low-cut, or that the gap is too deep. At the Met Gala 2019<\/strong> there was no room for simplicity and banality. This the model knows well.<\/p>\n

Let’s go back to the real world<\/strong>, but here we can discover the theme of the Met Gala 2020<\/strong>. About Time: Fashion and Duration<\/strong> is the title of this year’s event, but what should we expect then?<\/p>\n

The inspiration<\/strong> for the theme comes from Virgina Woolf<\/em> and twentieth-century philosopher Henri Bergson<\/em>. The exhibition will tell women’s fashion in a historical timeline<\/strong> that starts around 1870<\/strong> going up to the present day.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

To be specific, there is a particular image that inspired the theme and that of Orlando. 1992<\/strong> film directed by Sally Porter<\/em> based on the novel of the same name by Virgina Woolf.<\/p>\n

The protagonist of the film set in the late 16th century, receiving the order from Queen Elizabeth I of England orders him never to grow old<\/strong>, begins a series of adventures through centuries of English history collecting extraordinary experiences, including a change of sex.<\/p>\n

What if these are the premises we will still be here to talk about the Met Gala 2020<\/strong> as soon as it will be possible to organize the event again!<\/p>\n

In the meantime, take a look at the other looks of the 2019 Gala<\/a> that will make them talk a lot more and for another dive into the past, return to Milan Design Week 2019!<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
