Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Bad Bunny has served cunt look as he stuns in custom Jacquemus ‘open back’ outfit at the 2023 Met Gala. (Read More Here).
Serena Williams and Alexis Ohanian announced they were expecting a baby during a Vogue livestream interview with La La Anthony.
The tennis superstar announced she would retire from the sport in August, saying she wanted to focus on her business interests — and having another child.
Williams and Ohanian beamed as they told Anthony there were three of them up there for the interview. Then Ohanian and Anthony both offered to have a drink on Williams’ behalf inside.
The couple has a 5-year-old daughter, Olympia. Williams actually announced her intention to step away from tennis in an essay for — where else? — Vogue.
Earlier in the night, Karlie Kloss also announced she was pregnant. It’s nearly 9:30 p.m. All the reporters at the Met Gala are in a holding pattern. We’ve been told someone big is coming, and we’ve been told that for the last 40 minutes or so. But the identity and the location of the final guest remains a mystery: Is it Rihanna, known for a grand — and late — entrance? Is it Choupette, coming to extract revenge on Jared Leto? Is it the cockroach that AP’s Beatrice Dupuy just saw scurry up the stairs?
“Who are you wearing?” a reporter yelled. The roach did not respond. Florence Pugh did not hold back for her Met Gala debut. The 27-year-old actor surprised onlookers with a shaved head, adorned with a sky-high feathered headpiece by Valentino. Her gown, also Valentino, was white with a black ribbon.
Pugh has sported several showstopping Valentino looks lately, including at the Venice Film Festival premiere of “Don’t Worry Darling” and then again at the Oscars earlier this year. Last week she revealed that she was the new star of Valentino’s Rockstud bag campaign.
But it was her hair that drew the most attention. Some onlookers wondered if it was a wig.
In an interview last week with the New York Times she teased that her Met Gala look was going to be “big.”
“The idea is to be as bold as possible. I love the power that it gives me. I love how it sparks conversation,” Pugh said. “Every time I step out in whatever dress, that’s a version of me that I’m really proud of. So it doesn’t matter if people don’t necessarily like it. I don’t think anything that I do has to be 100% loved. Things being up for debate is good. It means people are interested.”
Just last week, Pugh attended an event with a long blonde bob with bangs. But elegant wasn’t entirely the hallmark of the evening. Jared Leto dressed as Choupette, Lagerfeld’s beloved fluffy cat. Lil Nas X went full cat covered in crystals by Pat McGrath and Dior Men.
Bad Bunny showed up late in bright white from head to toe with a long cape adorned with flowers. Monáe’s look, with a black sparkly leotard underneath, was made by Thom Browne.
Dua Lipa walked in a Chanel ballgown from the fashion house’s archive and Nicole Kidman chose a look Karl Lagerfeld himself made for her 20 years ago.
Doja Cat fittingly also arrived at the event channeling Choupette. She wore a hooded Oscar de la Renta gown, whcih included cat ears on the hood, silver sequins, a backless feature, and a mermaid silhouette that extended into a white feathered train. Over 5,000 hours of work went into creating the dazzling piece, which includes 350,000 silver and white bugle beads. She finished the look off with a diamond headpiece worn underneath the hood and a delicate diamond chain arm cuff.
Fear not, fashion lovers—the feline look wasn’t the only stunt up Leto’s sleeve. He later fully removed the costume to reveal yet another outfit, this time a much tamer (and arguably much more fashionable) all-black ensemble comprised of a bedazzled cape, semi-sheer blouse, pleated skirt, and black trousers.
And there were some bombshells: Serena Williams wore a flapper Gucci look when she announced she’s pregnant with her second child.
Lipa, a gala co-chair, wore a Tiffany & Co. diamond around her neck that she called “very special.” The singer’s cream-colored dress, by Chanel from 1992, was also “very, very special” as it has been on her mood boards, she said.
Kim Kardashian, meanwhile, went with loops and loops of pearls all over her Schiaparelli look. And Cardi B went big in pink, complete with a feathery head piece. Brittney Griner wore a gentle blush suit by Calvin Klein, who also dressed her wife, Cherelle Griner, in a sleek strapless gown close to the same color.
Many in the crowd of 400 counted Lagerfeld as a friend or worked with him at Chanel, Fendi, Chloe or one of the other fashion houses where he created during a career that spanned more than 60 years.
Many of the A-list guests wore black to walk the unusual carpet in a line design. It was a color Lagerfeld wore almost exclusively. Black-and-white combos were also plentiful.
Rihanna sparked rumors she would be attending the Met Gala when she was seen in Paris, wearing vintage Fendi designed by Lagerfeld. Rihanna spent the last week in the French city with Rocky and their son.
Throughout both of her pregnancies, Rihanna has sought to redefine what maternity style can be. She told Bustle in March 2022 that during her first pregnancy, her goal was to be “maybe…rebellious” with her wardrobe.
Rihanna, 35, might well be the annual event’s most anticipated arrival at this point. Over the years, she’s attended in iconic looks ranging from a pope-inspired Maison Margiela Artisanal ensemble (for 2018’s “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination” gala) to a petal-covered Comme des Garçons creation (for 2017’s “Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons: Art of the In-Between” ball).
And who could possibly forget the jaw-dropping yellow Guo Pei gown she chose for 2015’s “China: Through the Looking Glass”-themed carpet.
The “Love on the Brain” star stunned in a bridal-esque white Valentino ensemble featuring a flower-adorned cape, dramatic train and false eyelash-adorned sunglasses.
For his part, A$AP Rocky went comparatively casual — at least on the bottom half — as he sported a Gucci suit jacket and a plaid kilt layered over a pair of shimmering jeans.
She continued, “When I saw women dress during their pregnancy [in the past], I’d think that that was the only way. So I challenged myself to push it further and really just have fun with [maternity style]. Because there’s nothing more fun than a challenge for me. Like that’s where I get creative. That’s where I’m forced to come up with new ideas and new ways to make it work.”
She added of her fashion outlook, “It’s been me personally saying, ‘I’m not going to buy maternity clothes. I’m not gonna buy maternity pants, jeans, dresses, or [do] whatever society told me to do before.’”
Though she arrived long after the carpet wrapped, Ri (and A$AP Rocky) made it worth every minute. Her monochromatic white look included huge flowers that she also wore as a hood in some shots and long sleeves over a white ballgown. She added white sunglasses to her look and red lips as she continued to make her own rules when it comes to maternity wear. The gown was so big that it spanned many of the Met steps (something Ri is very used to) and Rihanna made sure that all eyes were on her as she disappeared into the party and officially shut down the red carpet.
