The MET Gala 2023 takes place today in New York, one of the largest and most important fashion events in the world, which will pay homage to Karl Lagerfeld!
With a theme titled as Karl Lagerfeld: a beauty line, this year’s ball will honor the vast career of one of the greatest designers in fashion history. The German designer born in 1933 went through several renowned brands and was responsible for important movements in the history of fashion such as saving the avant-garde romantic style Chloe between 1992 and 1997, the introduction to the era of monograms in Fendi during a partnership that lasted 54 years and up to his historic passage as creative director of the brand Chanelwhere he was at the helm from 1993 to 2019, when he passed away at the age of 85.
Despite its relevance to fashion history, the homage paid to the designer has been heavily criticized since its announcement in 2022. The criticism stems from Lagerfeld’s fat-phobic attitude during his years in the media, with extremely harsh jokes in the audience and even criticized singer Adele’s weight early in her career. During the explosion of the #MeToo movement, the designer was sued by several models for harassment. Another controversial point in the creative’s career was his conflicting relationship with animal rights movements, since he was completely in favor of using animal skins in his creations.
What to expect from the most important ball of the year?
Despite being completely secret due to its zero-tolerance policy with any audiovisual recordings of what happens inside the event, the red carpet that unfolds on the stairs of the famous New York museum usually blocks the internet and this year it did not it should be different! After the exhibition that will bear the same name as this year’s theme, it is foreseeable that the artist’s looks from the collection and unpublished creations will be seen during the red carpet.
Another unusual point of the event will be the participation of an animal for the first time in the event, the faithful kitten left behind by Karl Lagerfeld, choupette, who has become one of the greatest symbols of this Internet era, as well as being the sole heir to the entire fortune left by her guardian. At 12, the Burmese cat, who recently posed next to Kim Kardashian, will walk the red carpet for the first time since Karl’s death.
