In celebration of the Met’s “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion,” which highlights apparel so frail it can no longer be worn, gala guests followed “The Garden of Time” dress code.
Do neither of these statements mean anything to you? You're not alone! Anna Wintour apologized for the Met Gala theme's confusion.
“This exhibition broke my cardinal rule,” Anna said on Today ahead of the Met Gala. “When we came up with the title ‘Sleeping Beauties,’ it’s wonderful and poetic and romantic, but actually, it could be many, many things.” “I said, ‘What are we gonna say to people to wear to this night?’ And [MET Costume Institute curator Andrew Bolton] said, ‘Well, what about ‘Garden of Time?’ So, I fear that we’ve unleashed a lot of confusion out there, and for which I deeply apologize.”
Who do you think nailed the theme the best?
