The Met Gala is an event where celebs compete with each other to see who can be more avant-garde and outré. Each year has a different theme, but what remains constant is that the attendees try to scale new heights of outrageousness. These days, with Elon Musk being the flavour of the season, people were paying attention to him as well as all the other outfits at Met Gala 2022. Here are some of the highlights of the Met Gala this year:
Some followed the theme, some didn’t; most just judged.
So what if one is living literally in a garbage tip? Everyone is entitled to their opinions it would seem
The tweeple believe it is their prerogative to judge those who put huge amounts of time, effort and thought into their outfits.
People approved of the outfit of teen singing sensation and multiple Grammy winner Billie Eilish.
However, when she took off that poufy coat/cape/tent thingie, tweeple didn’t approve of her plain-looking red bustier and pants
Gilded? Hell yeah!
The event is in New York so that skyline on the singer’s dress is appropriate
A lot of black ties around.
This was Jared Leto. Known for this extremely outré outfits each year (including when he came dressed in red along with a decapitated head that looked very much like him) this year he came as… a twin?
I don’t know about the glamour or the gilding in this outfit, all I could think of was, hope he doesn’t poke his eye out.
This was their interpretation of the gilded glamour theme.
Blake Lively had this red carpet unveiling (bronze to aqua to reflect the Statue of Liberty) and apparently husband Ryan Reynolds was very surprised.
Indian businesswoman Natasha Poonawala was seen flaunting this interpretation of the saree on the red carpet.
Conspicuous by their absence were Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, Rihanna, Zendaya, Doja Cat, Lady Gaga, Beyonce… some were heartbroken.
Why was Elon Musk there? His mom wanted to come so that was his reason. A lot of desi commentators thought it he was a very good boy for brining his mother to the Met Gala 2022.
