Met Gala

This year’s event featured plenty of gemstones, puffy fabrics, feathers, black leather, evening gloves, and homages to the late fashion designer’s feline friend.

The “Once Upon a Time . . . in Hollywood” ingénue and star of the Netflix series “Maid” visits Color Me Mine for some sophisticated conversation.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Met Gala dress wasn’t hypocritical, as some have claimed, but it wasn’t radical, either.

The war of the gowns is on in Washington.

Jennifer Lopez wore a cowboy hat that simply bore the word “ENVIRONMENT.”

The theme was “American independence,” but the only consistently American thing about the event was its breathless emphasis on youth.

“I had a nightmare that I showed up at the Met Gala completely naked. I wasn’t even wearing a bedazzled see-through bodysuit.”

A recent spat involving the beauty vlogger James Charles shows that one shouldn’t underestimate the value that authenticity, or at least a performance of it, carries in the influencer marketplace.

Fashions inspired by tents, s’mores, and more.

The gap between what the gala guests attempt and what they achieve, between how they want to look and how they actually look—that’s the fun of it, and perhaps as close to naïve camp as we’re likely to find.

The twist here is that, honey, the culture is camp all the way down to the ground.
