      As a person who makes their own clothing, there are two things to keep in mind with frayed hems:
      1. it needs to be able to hold washing
      2. it needs to look intentional
      Doesn't look like either of those for this miu miu design.

      Vivienne was far less controversial, in ways far more grounbreaking while being just as iconic as Lagerfeld. She was never basic like Lagerfeld sometimes was, lets be honest. Westwood also had tons of very classy and high-class looks, also a lot of experimental and unique looks when Lagerfeld only kinda did specific styles without much variety at all.
      I cant handle this toothpaste carpet and just picking a piece out of a clothing catalogue, throwing it on with no creativity… Over what could have been with Westwood; the fun, the joy, the layers, deconstructed and unique looks you could have had with Vivienne. Huge shame.

An example of this could be dua lipa who wore a stunning vintage Chanel gown but didn’t commit to the full look that Claudia Schiffer wore in the original photo like the hat and jacket which would of made her really pop.

Plus it’s not like his views were a secret until after he died, they were very public and (rightfully) highly criticized.

    Dua Lipa's dress is such a missed opportunity in my opinion. The dress has a healthy dose of rococo elements to it, with a structured torso and large skirt. Since the rococo was an era of excess and artifice, it would have been entirely appropriate for Dua to be heavily jeweled; in turn, referencing back to Karl's early Chanel days that you discussed. I would have loved to have seen Dua with a large and elaborate hairstyle, possibly adorned with accessories from the Chanel archive. I also feel like her arms are too bare for me, if she had gone the rococo route then she could have worn some beautiful white gloves. Jewels, hair, flowers, accessories, etc. It was all there for the taking but it just feels like they chose such a simple interpretation. :/

      @Bigheartoneggshells We understand Coco Chanel’s style. But you’re the one who doesn’t understand that that the met gala theme was Karl Lagerfeld. Not Coco Chanel.
      Karl was heavy on accessories. Especially costume jewelry. In fact, he used to be terribly criticized for over accessorizing.
      There’s a reason that Claudia Schiffer originally wore Dua’s dress with a jacket, a hat with a big rose, and swirls of frilly, wide ribbon all over a glamorous updo.

    • @stuartrobertson5294
      @stuartrobertson5294 Рік тому +5

      @Bigheartoneggshells Your criticisms of my thoughts are all well and good if the theme of the Met Gala was CHANEL. However, that was not the theme. The theme was KARL LAGERFELD and a celebration of HIS work.
      Though he may have been at the helm of Chanel for many years (bringing it back from near-death), he was his own creative and had his own modes of inspiration for his work (the rococo period being one of them).
      I never wanted Dua to dress in period attire, because that would be cosplaying. No, I wanted her to use the dress that she was given (or chose idk) and really utilise it to it’s full advantage. The dress does have rococo themes throughout it and, if she had played her cards right, she could have played into that fact by creating a style that encompassed signature “fluff” from that period; honouring Karl’s creative process in turn.
      It could have been done in a very chic way, while still paying homage to Karl’s creative process.

The other half of the majority did an interpretation of lagerfield's classic black and white suit, which some looked amazing doing. Both of these choices were fine, I just wish we saw more variety.

Most of the celebrities went for a literal interpretation of the theme which is good but rarely did anyone venture to think what Karl Lagerfeld would have done had he been living today. This year's Met Gala though is better than the last year's MET which was a disaster as very few understood the theme Gilded Fashion.

Actually, now that I think about it...Where were the logos? Like, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't he design the Fendi double F logo?? Wasn't he one of the first to lean into logomania? I'm now even less impressed than I was before.

    I would love to see more color in the future. Very few dared to show up in other than black or white!
