If you cannot be art,you can wear art. Oscar Wilde
Why not both, Mr. Wilde? Part of what I love about fashion is that it is art. Its construction, its design, its feeling- fashion is the magic of making your body a canvas and making what you want to say to the world shine through. And there is no better example than the Met Gala. Part society affair, part art celebration, part fantasy its red carpet is an event in and of itself. It’s a time to wear a real ball gown, take risks, go all out, and have fun! Each year I’m in awe of the amazing pieces that get shown on the red carpet- it’s one of my fave fashion events of the year! Below are some of my favorite looks- I’d love to know: do you pay attention to the Met Gala? What do you think the relationship between art and fashion is? What looks are your favorite?
And if you need me, I’m walking around my apartment in a ball gown!!
Happy Tuesday! XO RA
