The theme of the last ball of the Costume Institute – Gilded Glamour – was respected by only half of the guests. The rest either did not reach the level of chic and brilliance, or completely ignored the dress code (which directly depends on the theme of the annual exhibition of the Metropolitan Museum of Art). Incidentally, the dress code for the Gilded Glamour event dated back to New York history from 1870 to 1890, when the economy was booming and the industrial revolution boosted fabric production at an unprecedented rate.
According to rumors, the images of the guests (even the most seemingly inappropriate ones) had to go through the approval process of Anna Wintour herself, the editor-in-chief of Vogue and the hostess of the ball. It is worth recognizing that almost all the outfits went to their mistresses and owners, with rare exceptions.
Why did the stars decide to “get out” of the general agenda? There can be a lot of reasons for this: one’s own imagination and desire to express oneself, an advertising contract with a fashion house, friendship with a designer … one can list for a long time. So, even here we saw items from the new hot pink Valentino collection. And some were inspired by legendary images, but from other eras: Kim Kardashian was in a Marilyn Monroe dress, and her mother Kris Jenner was in a Jacqueline Kennedy dress. Another image of Jackie tried on Julianne Moore. And finally, Emma Stone came in a dress from her own wedding.
We have collected the top 15 dresses and suits that violated the dress code of the ball, but still made a fuss and entered the history of the event in their own way (and simply beautiful).
