I thought this might be a fun exercise! Imagine you got invited to Monday’s Met Gala and you have unlimited resources and funds. What (or who?) would you wear?
As a reminder, and to quote myself from last week’s Drinks With Broads:
This year, the Costume Institute’s Spring Exhibition is “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion,” and will include— inspiring its name — several very rare pieces from the Met’s permanent collection which are apparently “far too fragile to ever be worn again.” …Per Vogue: “This year’s 2024 Met Gala dress code is ‘The Garden of Time.’ Inspired by J.G. Ballard’s short story of the same title, written in 1962, it can be interpreted in a myriad of ways.
How would you have interpreted it?
