- The first Monday in May: red carpet dresses overdose at the Metropolitan Museum (MET') in New York! This year's exhibition, curated by Andrew Bolton, is about Rei Kawakubo, the designer of Comme des Garcons. The theme for the party was "Avant-Garde". In this video I show the best dressed and worst dressed at the MET gala!
What would you have worn to the party?...

I think this is the first time I actually understood what the Met Gala is about! Thank you!
+Daydreamer5985 hahaha well great 👍😉
I cant believe that a lot of the online news outlets put the best dressed from this video as the worst dressed at the MET gala. You've said all that I wanted to say!
last warning to you, brave but anonymous comment poster: you remain respectful on this channel and stop insulting other viewers, or I'll block and flag you. I assume you won't be missing watching my videos.
I agree with you totally, while i loved the Zendaya dress, i respect Rihanna and Katy Perry 's choices more. I get mad when people don't play by the rules. It's not a ''come as you are'' party!
some didn't get the memo, unfortunately... ;-)
Myriam Etalmyna next year's theme "Come as you are"...we'll be seeing a lot of catsuits
what are the rules? i dont understand this party....
I would like to wear one of those corset-type tops molded out of solid plastic or sheet metal. Or something "spacy" from the 60s, though that would be vintage avantgarde.
Rihanna has always been my fave at the Met. I know everyone always raves about Beyonce but she never has Rihanna's edge.
i was so disappointed by all the people who didn't follow the theme of the gala! it's like they didn't care about why they where there, and just went to make sure they were talked about... i'll never understand why people choose to be boring.
I think Rihanna killed it. Loved her look. And she still managed to look beautiful.
Nissa Flake yep. She was the dress of the night for me too. I always find Rihanna has the most interesting dress choices.
Gintare Zabutkaite That's a good question, I want the answer too. Maybe when you produce something ridiculous it draws so much attention (lady Gaga's huge heels & meat dress, remember?) that people want it irrespective of its practicality. I mean I'm sure she's a high end expensive brand, and rich people often don't put much thought into their purchase. Also maybe she was successful more due to the art aspect than the fashion, but that's just my guess.
one can learn so much in your blogs!!! I feel like you are teaching an online course on fashion and design. Thanks!!!!!!!👍👍👍👍
cool, thank you!
I agree, I think that as well. She has such a calming demeanor, and teaches things so clearly. She is so interesting to watch.
Liana Rojas I'm a bit obsessed. 😳
obsessed with her blogs? that is a good obsession☺
Haven't loved a vlogger so much since Light by Coco.
Thank you for making a video about this! I felt so annoyed about how many celebs stuck with a pretty gown or cocktail dress instead of using this opportunity and their fortunes to do something artful and unique that added to night by adhering to the theme!
I'm glad you agree ;-) PS: most designers pay the celebrities to wear their designs, so it's not even about money... Re-PS: Comme des Garcons never pays,anyone, which I find very classy.
I agree. I think this theme was the least successful in recent years - the designers dressing the celebs just couldn't give a crap. At least that's how I see it.
Elizabeth Durham if that is the case wherethe designers have active choice on which dress is given to the celebs to wear , then they themselves do a disservice to the thematic nature of the gala..... then its just about looking pretty vs acknowledging the artistes, imo
They aren't paying for any of this. The socialites pay. The stars are all sponsored! They only pay their stylists.
Anna Wintour never wears anything related to the theme. Every year, no matter what theme it is.
... and she is the one deciding the theme, every year :-/
I am so bored by Anna Wintour. She basically wears the same dress and shoes no matter what. Only thing that changes is the colour and maybe the amount of sequins and feathers. I'm so tired of her tea length t-shirt dresses and point shoes. Ugh.
JP S that's because people like Wintour ie someone who's a "decider" the boss, ie someone who makes a lot of decision everyday & those decisions affect the larger scheme of things as well. It eventually gives them "decision fatigue".
So such people decide on one thing- especially sartorially, (because they have to dress themselves everyday) and stick to that decision forever. Eg: Steve jobs, Barack Obama, Alexander McQueen, Ralph Lauren etc.
Even Rei Kawakubo herself appears the same- because of her never changing hairstyle. Deciding on a "uniform" frees up your mind to move onto other, more important things.
blackrose1234100 And another important thing to note is all who experimented are mostly musicians (Perry, Rihanna, Knowles) or people trying to establish themselves solidly in the scene- Tracee Ross, Cara Delevigne, Priyanka Chopra. All actresses & all managed to be as "conservative" as possible while trying to experiment.
And people like K Jenner & Bella Hadid played it safe by following the "check-out-my-body" trick.
And she loves Chanel sooo much.... Was't she supposed to wear Prada?
If I were attending, I would wear a dress made of recycled Coke cans as both a fashion and social commentary. Thanks, Justine, for this great video and your outstanding explanation of a designer I knew nothing about and previously could only scratch my head at her designs. You made it all make perfect artistic sense!
thank you!
Rihanna nailed it! Since the beginning of the video I knew she was gonna make the top. I just started watching your videos and and found some helpful advice because I have a style crisis. It's changing which is great, but what's greater are good points and directions. Thank you! You are very lovely and likable :) xoxo
Rihanna basically always nails it - and she really investigates the theme every time :-)
You are my personal fashion professor. I enjoy you videos and always learn. Thank you!
awesome, thanks!
Justine: what's your avant-garde
Me: ripped jeans with white tshirt. Hangs head in shame
hahaha... well that's fine too :D
ahhahaha sweetheart :'D
The avant garde costumes seem like the concept that is the inspiration for a collection. It would be wonderful to see a Comme des Garçons show in person. The layers, colors, transparency and texture is amazing!
I was a little confused by the ret carpet dresses and thought I don't know fashion at all...now they totally make sense!! Thank you for making this kind of educational video... that's why I can't skip any of your videos!!!
Great review Justine, thank you!
Thank you for the lesson and in depth analysis. I am always amazed at what I learn from your channel. You are a natural teacher.
So nice to see an informative and analytical assessment of the Met gala and overall fashion. Thank goodness
Justine, I just keep learning and learning from you. Thank you so much for this spectacular video.
Great video as always! so many fashion reviews of nights like this come from no real expertise (are based purely on people's gut reaction) and often miss the point of the night or the fun and the message that exploratory fashion can have. Love all the info at the beginning! 💜 More please 😊
Great video! your explanations make it so easy to understand and comprehend fashion for those of us who have not studied it. Thank you!
For me...I would have dressed like a 61year old (my age) NY streets homeless bag lady! An example of the human body and spirit and (fashion of course)exposure to poverty, weather, silence and solitude in the midst of city mayhem...taken from the theme of "fashion exposed to radiation exposure!
You have so much substance in the way you discuss your topics that I am developing interest in fashion and design again :)
I just want to say how incredible it is that youre allowing the videos to be subbed like that. It's really amazing and thoughtful and since although I am clueless about fashion I love watching your videos and learning about it, I'm sure you will gain MANY more fans!
Marvelous and instructive as always. Thanks for the review, is really useful for people like me, who is interested in fashion but doesn't know too much about terms like volumen, deconstruction, etc.
I watched this video after reviewing the fashion from that night - this imparts greater context to the choices people made, and I have a greater appreciation for those choices after watching this. Thank you!
+Logan Dodson I am glad you enjoyed this perspective 🤗
Excellent explanations and very well argued critic as well. Thanks for this video
question : how does an avant garde propel a designer to commercial success when the design in itself looks close to impractical?
great question: Rei Kawakubo is seen as a designer who inspires the others. She has a small but very loyal customer base among socialites / press professionals / well-earning fashionistas. AND the company has multiple "commercial" lines like PLAY (the brand with the heart and the little eyes on the chest), which are more market-ready and benefit from the aura of her designer collection.
An artist for artists...not for the masses.
+welljustwatchme I agree. but of all the art I can think of, fashion and food are the most practical commercial instances. And so I raised my question.
I am old, so I remember the comme des garcon initial intro into fashion. Back then, it was mostly the oversized, baggy, torn, worn, dull monochrome looks that she introduced. They may not have been conventionally pretty, but they caught the attention of the post-apocalyptic imagination - Blade Runner and then Mad Max etc. The overall look had quite a long life and influenced a lot of designers.
Thank God we finally have somebody smart, charming and possible the best fashion educator to guide us .
Bravo!!!!!!! Keep the fabulous work
Enfin une vrai "review" sur le Met et le thème de cette soirée !! 🌺🌺
I think you are probably one of the only that really deliver high quality of videos. I admire your capacity and your world wide understanding.... I also saw your proper design creations wich I loved but pants and skirts seemed a bit to H body type of cut and that´s really do not fit with my curvy body but I saw a very nice sweetshirt or pullover..... thank you for showing so nice and acurate atitude through the actuallity of our contemporary world
Thanks so much for explaining Justine!
I really enjoy you videos. the content is informative and well thought out. you are so genuine! very happy to see you reach 100k any minute now.
Justine! Thanks for such interesting content as always!
To me avant guard...means clothing concepts that push the boundaries, are innovative, artistic expressions but most of all unapologetically daring
I loved this video! I am such a fan of Rei Kawakubo esp the weird body silhouettes she does. I love the unexpectedness and how it sticks it to the idea of adhering to traditional beauty standards.
I can't thank you enough for the great topics you keep posting
I love this video! Entertaining and informative at the same time - thank you :-D
thank you for explaining this event.
Thank you for explaining the designs for the Gala. Very good. You presented the ideas behind the "looks" very clearly. Too bad the news feeds I saw after the event made no mention of the inspiration behind some of the designs. Much appreciation!
This was the ultimate in Met Gala. Perfect explanation of theme, the sorry safe, and the winning wild.
Agree with you WORD FOR WORD. EXACTLY what I thought after seeing all the looks!
To me Riri really killed it. Best dressed lady around. The angels on the other hand were all such a disappointment. They'd be spectacular if they wore sacks! What is the point of looking "just beautiful" for a Kawakubo themed event?
However I think Kendall Jenner ought to get some points. While her outfit initially looked like yet another play on Mcgowan's '98 VMA look, a closer look and details of what it took to create the gown shows that it was, at the end of the day, a true work of art which in turn fits in with the theme.
Also, I'd like to know what you thought of Priyanka Chopra's look? I thought she was rather spectacular bit could not quite make up my mind about whether or not it fit into the theme.
Learned so much, thanks!!!!
Another helpful video. Thanks for giving such videos justine.
Thank you for this! I loved looking at all the photos of the gowns on Monday night and appreciated the people (like Rihanna) who stayed on theme.
This was a really fun and informative video!
Loved this!! I found you by chance 3 days ago and ever since I have binged on your videos and I'm almost done with all of them... the content is amazing! Please do a "history of fashion/clothes" series, that would be so interesting!!
all my videos in 3 days??... Wow, I really need to keep making more...! Thanks a lot for your sweet message. I take your suggestion of a fashion history series and will add it to the "wishlist" :-)
Thank You Justine. You are so easy to understand ... and you are sooooo funny 😉 How did we ever get dressed without you? Thank You for all that you do. You are appreciated !!!
Well done with the translations- a fine addition.
God,I fell in love with Rei Kawakubo. I never ever like the clothes I see on the catwalk but hers are magic. She sculptures the material and the body with such an elegance. She is an artist more than a fashion designer.
Awesome!! This really gave me good information why there were so many weird dresses of this year MET gala. Good information. Thanks 👍
I was not interested in fashion at all until I found your channel. Now I love it.
ugh I love you and your content!😍 I wish you'd go on project runway!+
Oh my god! Why don't journalists do their job and tell me these things? I have never heard anything like this, explaining the MET gala and telling me what is all about. Well now I am interested in the next one :D :D Thank you Justine!
Your commentary is so on point, I love listening
+Karina B thanks!
Very clear explanation, straight to the point, critical without being offensive and all of this with a sweet lovely accent 👘
I found this video really interesting, please make more!
wow, so impressed! I just love learning about these type of things. so much fun, I would have totally jumped in with the look and feel of the designer!😍
+Jennifer Rogerson 😊
IVE WAITED FOR THIS VIDEO 😍😍😍😍😍
So informative Justine x
I love your videos! So much wisdom & entertainment at the highest level :) Well done and good luck in your designer work 👍
+kuczerek7 thank you!!
I am by no means really into fashion but I have learned so much from your channel! You put things into laymen terms, this video is no exception. My favorites though are how to pick quality clothes (I am now looking at things I have never noticed like darts and stitching when shopping) and how to wash clothes and dry clothes. So informative!!
I am happy those videos helped!!
The shade with Bella Hadid had me dying hahahah ♥
This video was spectacular! Love it!!!!!
+Jodi Burke thanks 💛
i love it💗
Very accurate analyzation of this Gala. I agree with you on so many points. This was a great video. Subscribed about a month or two ago and I don't regret it 👌🏾
hi there, new friend! 😘
great to hear your opinions from an insider point of view. i appreciate your honesty a lot.
thank you!
This was great - I studied architecture and yet I can see the relationship in design thinking between fashion and the built environment - really nice!
+its_sugarfree architecture and fashion converge even more if you look into corsets and tailoring the way it was done some decades ago. Now fashion is more about following the body... Interesting evolution, though!
Actually, I didn't even know that there is such a thing as a Met Gala, but I love the idea. Looking at what you explained so beautifully about the art of Rei Kawakubo, I wonder if taking the whole thing about the selfie-theme one step further would be to only send a photographic image of yourself, like a big cardboard dummy?! Or maybe carrying it in front of you like another version of yourself? ;-))
+Light&Laughter that would have landed you a headline (if not the best-dressed list) 😁👏
This is such an interesting video- I learnt so much-- thanks:)
This video is so good! Nice work! I love your critics 😊
Just subscribed to your channel and have already watched about 20 videos...it started with the perfume and I love your color theory explanations and so many others! I'm not even into fashion or buying clothes but I love understanding the flattering pieces that do work and making pieces work for a long time. I look forward to checking out your drawing videos as I want to learn for fun.
😍😍😍😍 always looking forward for videos u upload ...this was the awaited one 😍 Justine Leconte
Nirmiti Pimpalkhare yeah😆😆
Wow c'était une analyse tellement intéressante!
Hi Justine, love your videos! Avant- Garde to me means Issey Miyake (Pleats Please), and he has been my favorite designer for over 15 years now. Love it!
Love your videos Justine.
Wow, not knowing what Avant-Garde stands for in the fashion world, I didn't expect this video to be this good !!! I actually love the very first dress that you showed to explain the Hiroshima concept: dark grey, top with huge holes and long "pleated" skirt. Thank you !!!
I enjoyed this video😍
Such an interesting informative video. I was confused by the theme. Thank you for breaking it down.
cool, thanks for the feedback!
thanks Justin
I never understood the met till now. Best teacher ever. Of everything.
I don't know why, but I really like listening to your words and sentences. You got yourself a new fan here 👋😄
This is my favorite video of yours!
+Gabriela Duarte thanks!
I loved this! Educational and so interesting to see. My favourite was Tracee Ellis Ross.
Love you Justine!!!! So thorough! I always wonder why the celebs who don't even bother with the theme show up???
Yes!! Bravo. I love when the theme or designer is king/queen and all fashions display something relevant to that. To simply wear a beautiful dress is so boring. Thank you for highlighting that idea. Fingers crossed for 2019 that more are listening. The Met Ball should be fun and art fashion!
Thank you
THANK YOU! I was saying the same thing, every magazine was putting the outfits closest to the theme in the worst-dresses lists; they're so boring!
I Love the video. Although its much to late I would have worn Myake.
This is my favourite post so far. I wish the last ten years of Met gala would be done like this.
I love your channel more and more every time I see a new video. Since you mentioned subtitles, I would be very happy if your content was translated in French, as I'm currently learning your language. =) Apart from that, tu es géniale, Justine! ;)
Thank you for explaining why dressing for the theme is important. Year after year I see people deride the on theme looks while they compliment the boring ballgowns and it's clear that they don't know what they're talking about. I hope more people watch this video and do their research.
I was literally waiting for your video about this lol
I loved how you explained what the party was about and why some people met the challenge and some didn't. I think if you go to this type of event you should at least try to go for the theme.
You are good Justine👍Love your blog 👍👍👍
Such an interesting and unusual type of video for a youtube fashion vlogger. You have such a great channel, and I've never meant it so much when I say please keep up the good work! You are a gem!
I am glad you liked the idea of this video!!
this is the first time i watch a video of yours, and i habe to say i liked it a lot, you said everything i think... although you showed images from a collection by viktor&rolf while talking about cdg... however i might have missed something. anyway, congrats and greetings from mexico (:
I would've dressed with the theme! That would've been much more fun. Great video!
Thank you for explaining the Met to me ..I never had a clue 🇮🇪💃🏻😎🎉😍
loved Rihanna. and I love you Justin. you are beginning to feel like my best friend😍😍😍😍
one more thing, Avant garde doesn't simply have to comply to dresses ... even though it was met gala and dresses were " the talk of the town", I guess, Cara was quite Avant garde in her make up. it's a well timed theme . we can move to Avant garde in our school of thoughts, in ways we view ideas, politics and world peace. it's a great time in world history to actually start new and experimental stuff. me, being a doctor, would want Avant garde in the way I treat my patients, in my approach to them and in my approach to medicine. much love to you Justin
hahaha thanks!
Thanks for a good review, I enjoyed watching it ! Good points and good analysis, focusing on the theme and what the event ia all about not just on "who was prettier at the ball". P.s. I might be mistaken, but as I know Cara shaved her head for a movie, not for this event.
