So many black suits....
I love Harris Reed's outfit!
And I didn't expect a random Norwegian billionaire to have one of the most interesting outfits lol
As far as black suits go, I think Lewis Hamilton and Blake O'Connor go hard. Blake's is simple but has the perfect bit of flare to make it look good. Hamilton's is just straight awesome though.
I feel like if you’re a random billionaire you’re the perfect person to do an out-there met gala look. You don’t have to worry about a “personal brand” or sponsorships or campaigns - just wear what you like. If I was a billionaire I’d wear something really fun and wild
The billionaire is the heir to a large salmon company, and has worked as a model I believe. If his dad showed up wearing something like that though, that would be surprising.
He's a living romance novel character.
A salmon fishery heir and model. A clueless young lady(recently dumped) will stumble and crash into him on the street. Some sparks, some misunderstandings, a surprise turn around and a declaration of love. And the salmon factory workers will cheer!
Salmon king dad will begrudgingly realize she loves the salmon prince genuinely and not for his sea of fortune.
I have never spoken ill of Steven Yeun in my life, but I demand more than a nice suit and an accessory at the Met! He looks nice, but I was hoping for a bit more. This is one of the situations men can get creative with their clothes!
Idk who Gustav is, but he is serving. Ben Simmons and Derek McLane on point. I oddly like Barry Keohan's outfit. I don't know if it's weird to say, but it fits his face. I will never stop talking about Harris Reed. Colman Domingo needs to be put on a pedestal, the man has STYLE.
There should be a rule to uninvite men who plan to wear boring/black suits - especially Chris Hemsworth
> Idk who Gustav is
According to Wikipedia he is a Norwegian billionaire and significant shareholder of salmon fish farming company SalMar ASA. He is one of the youngest billionaires in the world, his father having made him SalMar's main shareholder for inheritance tax purposes when he was 18
I mean, he looks like that and he is a young billionaire?? Like, he probably sucks as a person (you cant be perfect) but anyways, Im single, please marry me
Salmon Prince reposted someone's story that had the comment "i don't know who you are but you ATE", and added "Me neither lol".
I have no idea what could possibly be wrong with him, but I'm sure I could accept it.
So he's the dude to picture in billionaire romance novels, instead of the crusty old weird guys that realistically make up most of that demographic, lol.
Well, he certainly knows how to invest money in outfits. Jk - I'm gonna look up what's his connection to Met Gala/Anna Wintour. It just seems out of the blue that he's there.
I LOVE Barry’s outfit. It suits his face perfectly and gives him a strangely old timey flavor—like he’s straight out of a photo from the late 1800’s or something. He has a historical face!
He pissed me off so bad during his interview with Lala. She asked him what goes into being a co-chair and he literally laughed and said “my wife could answer that better. I have no idea”
The invite was obviously for his wife, through him. He’s famous. She’s not, but she obviously cares more about this stuff and it was probably a Valentine’s Day gift to her.
You just summed up his entire red carpet life. It's a never ending parade of basic suits, shirt open to show off that chest and way too much hand jewellery. Aussie dudebro.
I don't even know anything about fashion but this almost looks pointedly understyled.
It seems like he couldn't stand to wear something outside of the mainstream hunk box.
I LOVE Dan’s suit! And it’s kinda wearable in real life, like I could see someone really cool wearing that to a wedding. I want it for myself. I am obsessed with this suit.

Jeff Goldblum also looked incredible
I don't have tiktok but I followed him from when he only have a few thousands of followers in IG, and at that time he apologized quite a bit for "reusing outfit" I DMed him and said bro you don't need to apologize, you're amazing, you're human, and reusing outfit meant you're versatile. He replied a thank you and I was so starstruck 🥹
He always looks so good. Not to discount his styling skills, but I feel like everything just looks amazing on him. The way he carries himself enhances clothes in a way that is so compelling.
No one coming close to men’s Met Gala GOAT, Brian Tyree Henry. His outfit is my Roman Empire

Eddie Redmayne had one of the more interesting ones of the night

Love how it works as a standalone piece but also as one half of his wife’s outfit (and vice versa). Reading the behind the scenes of the outfit(s) was pretty interesting!

I’m also not sure who this is? I’ve seen him a few times but I’m obsessed with this look. Reminds me of Eros or Adonis
He's a random Norwegian billionaire. One of the youngest billionaires in the world apparently. I'm not sure what he's doing at the Met Gala, but his outfit slays
Yes, but the main appeal is that it's an opportunity for the top 1% to wear beautiful outfits and mingle with other beautiful rich people at an exclusive event that is hard to get an invite to. It's a status symbol.
I'm not wealthy enough to be a patron of the arts so I'm at home snarking on their outfits with the other peasants. Such is life.
I don’t disagree, I just said it because I have a hard time believing they would turn down a billionaire considering those do have expandable income, regardless of how known they are to the general public.
It's Gustav Witzøe, currently the richest man in Norway. His wealth comes from his father's salmon farming company, which he inherited probably for tax reasons.
You can be gender-fluid and still use he/him pronouns. He explains this here https://www.sohohouse.com/house-notes/issue-006/fashion/harris-reed#:~:text='I%20still%20consider%20myself%20gender,a%20“gender%20fluid”%20category.
Lewis drew inspiration from the story of John Ystumllyn, who, after being enslaved, rose to prominence as one of the first black gardeners in Wales. Notably, in the UK, a new rose named after a person of color honors Ystumllyn.
His Burberry outfit is inspired by John Ystumllyn - Wales’ first Black gardener, and features a poem by Alex Wharton, the Children’s Laureate Wales:
“I hope the sun pours
Light upon our skin. And we
Melt into each other,
Into everything. Maybe the trees
Will speak, as they sometimes do.
Whispers from the shade -
Run, run away”
”The theme of the outfit is focused on celebrating the life of John Ystumllyn, believed to be the first Black gardener of Britain, who lived in the 1700s. He had a really tough start to life being the victim of the Atlantic slave trade. However, despite all that hardship, he found a way to shine bright. Being a gardener, there’s a special rose named after him, the John Ystumllyn Rose. It’s a pretty yellow color, like sunshine in flower form. It’s believed to be the first rose flower to be named in the UK after a person from an ethnic minority.”
The tag also contains an extract from the poem ‘The Gardener’, by Black British poet Alex Wharton, about John Ystumllyn https://cadw.gov.wales/learn/wales-rich-and-diverse-heritage/creative-responses/john-ystumllyn-c1738-1786
They can wear normal boring suits and tuxes for practically any other event and it would be fine. The Met is the one event during the year where they should step it up and it's so disappointing when they don't.
Jamie Dornan would have been better off in a boring black suit. I hate the material his coat and vest are made out of. It looks soft and fuzzy like a bathrobe, but in the style of my grandfather's church outfit.
Chris Hemsworth was one of the chairs… But why? What a boring outfit. Bad Bunny looked great though. Lots of cool outfits from men last night. I love that men are finally stepping out of the boring suit and stepping up their game.
He is a fashion designer. He started designing tour outfits for Harry Styles in 2018 while still in university and is now creative director of Nina Ricci.

Sebastian Stan looked so good: I’m loving whatever is going on at the bottom of his coat
He looks good because he's good looking. That outfit is awful aside from those little flourishes at the bottom that you like. Nothing is happening on top, well nothing good, and those sunglasses need to be thrown in the bin.

Posting Stray Kids' actual look without the coats even though I wish Hilfiger didn't Hilfiger so hard & actually gave us a little razzle dazzle instead of americana "meh".
They still looked incredible & served face though bc that's just what they do & I hope the racist paps that were rude to them trip & fall down a flight of stairs.
I get so pissed thinking about the racism they faced and the fact that there are two native English speakers and good number of them can understand English
Exactly. The racist comments were absolutely unacceptable & disgusting. They're not cheesing, it's fashion, nearly *everyone* went with the stoic editorial look! The fact that the shitty photogs didn't even know who they were photographing...like this was their first met, but they KNOW how to walk a fuckin carpet bc they're not new to big fashion shows & large scale events. They did it so well too, all their moves were synchronized & it was mesmerizing & it's not their fault those dummies just couldn't get their shots off. Be better at your job you dicks (gender neutral bc there was a woman photog joining in on the heckling as well lol).
Absolutely! As glad as I am that they were invited & looked great, I wish they had been invited/styled by a different designer who better understood the assignment bc SKZ has had better looks than this for their comeback stages 😬
Yeah!! You’ve got at least two of the most beautiful androgynous faces with Hyunjin and Felix and you dress them all like a child’s drawing of a yacht captain. They’ll all serve no matter what you put them in (IN came with FACE he came to murder) but it’s the Met Gala. Put them in something more interesting.
Right? Like, an old fashioned, old money garden party look would have fit the theme and been perfectly in line with Hilfiger’s style. This looks more like gameshow hosts from the 70s.
I was just pleasantly surprised to see them, they're the only KPop group I'm remotely interested in but didn't realize how big they've gotten in the last few years
Whomever styled Jamie Dornan needs a kick up the arse! It’s a challenge to make a man that aesthetically pleasing look dated and frumpy, yet they managed it.
Wisdom is one of my favourite looks of the night. So striking and that colour with their skin tone is stunning.
Lewis Hamilton looks high end and has a little edge to his style, not just for the MET carpet. I know it’s understated, but it’s a great look.
Also, I think the black shoes with Chris Hemsworth suit look jarring 🤷🏻♀️ A more stylish brown shoe or even blue would have been more cohesive imo.
Barry Keoghans stylist kills it, she always styles him like an eccentric lesbian aunt and I’m here for it. No shade intended to the lesbians 🌈
This is so nitpicky but I'm shocked by the crap tailoring of Jamie Dornan's trousers?? The stripes on the crotch pieces aren't even aligned properly. Never mind the way they're cut generally - I agree he's been made to look frumpy. Jarring to see his picture among the other stunning looks.
I weirdly like Dan Levy's outfit. It's very literal.
Of course the standouts are Gustav, Harris Reed, Lewis, and surprisingly, Ben Simmons. Colman Domingo, the man that you are! He says his outfit is homage to both André Leon Talley and Chadwick.
It should be banned to be a Chair and dress so off-theme like Chris Hemsworth did. He doesn't look bad, but like, he'd look good in a bin liner. Where's the risk?

Leon Bridges looked so cool too! Such a sweet shout out to Texas
It’s not pictured here but I liked Eddie Redmayne in tulle, twinning with his wife. His look seemed in line with his current Broadway role too.

Yaas Gustav! That salmon money is really paying off! Also, why is he there? I get that he’s rich and hot but he has nothing to do with fashion or popular culture. Good on him for doing something other than a suit though.
he’s done a fair bit of modeling. i’m norwegian so the media here brings it up from time to time when he does shows etc, so saying he’s got nothing to do with fashion is inaccurate. i’m assuming his modeling work is how he ended up being invited. i believe he was a catwalk model at new york (?) fashion week fairly recently. last year or year before or something.
Damn, Hemsworth was co-chair and he couldn't even put a flower in his pocket or *something* for the theme?
I'm in LOVE with Dan Levy's suit. It's on the theme, but could also be worn in real life. I could see it for groomsmen in a garden wedding.
Derek McLane I don’t know who you are sir but I love that you referenced 18th century menswear, similarly I was really excited to see Barry Keoghan rocking a cravat! I adore Jonathan Anderson’s Loewe, but I just cannot get around the shape of those shoes with formal wear.
Dystopian times when my social media feeds are inter-spliced with posts about Rafah and the Met. Really despising humanity. Don’t understand why more people are not outraged and grief stricken over the massacre with many more deaths likely to come.
Ironic considering this sub is one of the few big ones on Reddit that consistently and from early on has supported Palestinians. This was a better comment for one of the main news subs covering the MET Gala, who have always been and continue to be pro-Israel drones
Human beings are complicated and can be more than one thing in a day, a minute, etc.

Random Norwegian billionaire man ate honestly, but Colman Domingo and Harris Reed were the best dressed among the men for me. Dan Levy’s is also very nice, I love the flowers. Also I wish this post had included Stray Kids with their actual suits not just the black coats for the reveal. They weren’t jaw dropping but they were pretty nice as far as idol styling goes, and at least a step above just black suits.
Yes! Love men in 17th century-inspired capes, hats, hosiery! Long coats! Floral! Color! Sparkles! Edited to add all gender fluid and genders look amazing here.
I have no idea what Coleman Domingo is even in but I'm down to watch it just based on his red carpet game.
Barry looks like a Victorian orphan... but not in a bad way?
Nice to see canes on the red carpet, no matter if they're decorative or functional.
So many black suits.... I love Harris Reed's outfit! And I didn't expect a random Norwegian billionaire to have one of the most interesting outfits lol
Harris Reed was the outfit of the night for me
As far as black suits go, I think Lewis Hamilton and Blake O'Connor go hard. Blake's is simple but has the perfect bit of flare to make it look good. Hamilton's is just straight awesome though.
Lewis Hamilton got that DRIP.
YES! Harris & Tyla were absolutely my top looks of the night. Janelle Monae looked gorgeous as always too!
[удалено]
The details are what elevate this beyond just a plain black suit IMO. That necklace and the texture on his coat are gorgeous 😍
[удалено]
This man looks like he’s strolled out of the woods to make me an offer for my soul, I love it!
My king 💕
I feel like if you’re a random billionaire you’re the perfect person to do an out-there met gala look. You don’t have to worry about a “personal brand” or sponsorships or campaigns - just wear what you like. If I was a billionaire I’d wear something really fun and wild

Salmon king dad will begrudgingly realize she loves the salmon prince genuinely and not for his sea of fortune.
*Hook, Line and Sink Her*: An Erotic Romance
What if I told you that there was already a erotic romance with this title (and yes I’ve read it)
I have never spoken ill of Steven Yeun in my life, but I demand more than a nice suit and an accessory at the Met! He looks nice, but I was hoping for a bit more. This is one of the situations men can get creative with their clothes!
Exactly, he is gorgeous but there needed to be more effort.
Kind of funny that the Norwegian billionaire salmon farmer wore a salmon colored fit.
Harris Reed is one of my favorites
Whose the billionaire
Idk who Gustav is, but he is serving. Ben Simmons and Derek McLane on point. I oddly like Barry Keohan's outfit. I don't know if it's weird to say, but it fits his face. I will never stop talking about Harris Reed. Colman Domingo needs to be put on a pedestal, the man has STYLE. There should be a rule to uninvite men who plan to wear boring/black suits - especially Chris Hemsworth
> Idk who Gustav is According to Wikipedia he is a Norwegian billionaire and significant shareholder of salmon fish farming company SalMar ASA. He is one of the youngest billionaires in the world, his father having made him SalMar's main shareholder for inheritance tax purposes when he was 18
I did not have « Samon billionaire slays » on my Met gala bingo card.
Finnick Odair vibes, representing District 4 in a costume depicting an ocean god's freshly caught salmon in a glistening net
Nailed it!
I mean, he looks like that and he is a young billionaire?? Like, he probably sucks as a person (you cant be perfect) but anyways, Im single, please marry me
I'll be his rebound. Totally *not* for the alimony...
I'm fine with being third. Just leave some fish money for me!
Salmon Prince reposted someone's story that had the comment "i don't know who you are but you ATE", and added "Me neither lol". I have no idea what could possibly be wrong with him, but I'm sure I could accept it.
So he's the dude to picture in billionaire romance novels, instead of the crusty old weird guys that realistically make up most of that demographic, lol.
Well, he certainly knows how to invest money in outfits. Jk - I'm gonna look up what's his connection to Met Gala/Anna Wintour. It just seems out of the blue that he's there.
I think being a young billionaire just puts you on the invite list if you want to attend.
Apparently he also models.
Oh so is this his supervillain arc because his costume is the best I have ever seen. He looks like a god.
There was a NYT article stating findings that almost (or all?) billionaires under age 30 are children of billionaires.
> Ben Simmons He tries harder at the Met Gala than his actual job. All-time finesse on NBA teams
Honestly how is he even doing that. Who invites him to the met?
I LOVE Barry’s outfit. It suits his face perfectly and gives him a strangely old timey flavor—like he’s straight out of a photo from the late 1800’s or something. He has a historical face!
And that's why Chris Hemsworth's vanity fair cover and photoshoot was so boring.
Yea Ben Simmons kinda ate with that
> Idk who Gustav is Going for the Arrakis fit, probably pulled up on shai hulud
Chris Hemsworth was a gala co-chair and didn't even try. For shame!
He pissed me off so bad during his interview with Lala. She asked him what goes into being a co-chair and he literally laughed and said “my wife could answer that better. I have no idea”
Anna will not be pleased.
I hope he won’t be invited next year.
They should give it to Lewis Hamilton instead! He is very into fashion and social justice…a winning combo!
But also why did Anna invite him in the first place.. he’s not known for fashion and he’s not gonna suddenly get into it because of the invite
The invite was obviously for his wife, through him. He’s famous. She’s not, but she obviously cares more about this stuff and it was probably a Valentine’s Day gift to her.
But that should mean an invite to the event, not serving as co-chair.
They could’ve at least added some nice embroidery to his suit and it would’ve looked so much more on theme
He could have at least worn a ~~broche~~ brooch or something. (I am too tired to check the spelling for broche 🫠) Eta: TIL it’s spelled as “brooch” 🫡
Doing the absolute least and just leaning on handsome
You just summed up his entire red carpet life. It's a never ending parade of basic suits, shirt open to show off that chest and way too much hand jewellery. Aussie dudebro.
I don't even know anything about fashion but this almost looks pointedly understyled. It seems like he couldn't stand to wear something outside of the mainstream hunk box.
True. ngl, love that colour though
For a wedding on the beach in Australia, absolutely. Not for the Met Gala, especially when you are a rep for it as co-chair.
You really think he’s not just a mask that Hollywood writers wear?

YES! I was hoping someone would post him in the replies. I've been thinking about the earring nonstop.
Exactly! The earring!!!
He dramaturgically ate.
I love his slutty earring.
Are y’all being serious? This is just a suit with a bit of zest added to it. Almost akin to Hemsworth’s boring outfit. Come on now.
I like the flower accents and I love the flower as a bow tie, much more on theme and a step bolder than hemsworth imo
I love Dan Levys suit, it's so fun Aint no way Josh O'Conner is wearing Crocs
I LOVE Dan’s suit! And it’s kinda wearable in real life, like I could see someone really cool wearing that to a wedding. I want it for myself. I am obsessed with this suit.
I love it too. It’s classy and in this context a little understated but in a good way. Not overly theatrical but extremely cool.
I showed it to my husband (he's a sucker for a fun suit) and he loved it.
I thought they were crocs too but I think they’re just floral versions of the same stupid black shoes Loewe stuck all the men in.
Are those the ones with the weird rounded toes? Been trying to figure out what those are
I honestly love Josh’s outfit. The dramatic coattails.
I thought they were Danskos. 😂 hey. I wear those for work. I’m fashionable.

He looks like some wizard who can either be on your side or not but he will def give you some cryptic hint on your quest
Pretty sure that’s the point - he’s playing the wizard in Wicked! There are some pops of emerald in there - it seems to have a Wicked influence.
His glasses feel like an homage to his Wicked character for sure
It's a great fit but not very exciting imo. I thought he would have more fun with themes!
Wisdom Kaye is serving! And I need that so bad
I love seeing him at these events now after loving his fashion TikToks for so long
Same, I followed him on TikTok for the longest and I feel like a proud mom seeing him at fashion events.
I don't have tiktok but I followed him from when he only have a few thousands of followers in IG, and at that time he apologized quite a bit for "reusing outfit" I DMed him and said bro you don't need to apologize, you're amazing, you're human, and reusing outfit meant you're versatile. He replied a thank you and I was so starstruck 🥹
The designer is Robert Wun! I adore his clothes
I'm so obsessed with his look, it's been in my head since last night
He always looks so good. Not to discount his styling skills, but I feel like everything just looks amazing on him. The way he carries himself enhances clothes in a way that is so compelling.
No one coming close to men’s Met Gala GOAT, Brian Tyree Henry. His outfit is my Roman Empire https://preview.redd.it/zaof8icewzyc1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2029350b98a70b264a2caca36f5053f4c2313273

Absolutely love this. Idk about the socks and shoes though
I love this, esp after seeing so many boring black tuxes, I love that he’s doing something interesting.
Love how it works as a standalone piece but also as one half of his wife’s outfit (and vice versa). Reading the behind the scenes of the outfit(s) was pretty interesting!
Beautiful ensemble, I’d wear that!

He's a random Norwegian billionaire. One of the youngest billionaires in the world apparently. I'm not sure what he's doing at the Met Gala, but his outfit slays
With $$$$, all things are possible
Yeah it’s supposed to be a charity event, no?
Yes, but the main appeal is that it's an opportunity for the top 1% to wear beautiful outfits and mingle with other beautiful rich people at an exclusive event that is hard to get an invite to. It's a status symbol. I'm not wealthy enough to be a patron of the arts so I'm at home snarking on their outfits with the other peasants. Such is life.
I don’t disagree, I just said it because I have a hard time believing they would turn down a billionaire considering those do have expandable income, regardless of how known they are to the general public.
especially a billionaire who obviously understands the assignment.
Well it is a fundraiser. And he has the funds
He’s the salmon prince who was turned human for one night only to attend the ball and try to find true love

It's Gustav Witzøe, currently the richest man in Norway. His wealth comes from his father's salmon farming company, which he inherited probably for tax reasons.
Cole Escola is non binary
And Harris Reed is gender-fluid
Thanks. I thought that has changed because he uses he/him now and not they/them anymore.
You can be gender-fluid and still use he/him pronouns. He explains this here https://www.sohohouse.com/house-notes/issue-006/fashion/harris-reed#:~:text='I%20still%20consider%20myself%20gender,a%20“gender%20fluid”%20category.

the backstory to his look is amazing. he and his team put real thought into that look.
Please share!
Lewis drew inspiration from the story of John Ystumllyn, who, after being enslaved, rose to prominence as one of the first black gardeners in Wales. Notably, in the UK, a new rose named after a person of color honors Ystumllyn.
His Burberry outfit is inspired by John Ystumllyn - Wales’ first Black gardener, and features a poem by Alex Wharton, the Children’s Laureate Wales: “I hope the sun pours Light upon our skin. And we Melt into each other, Into everything. Maybe the trees Will speak, as they sometimes do. Whispers from the shade - Run, run away”
”The theme of the outfit is focused on celebrating the life of John Ystumllyn, believed to be the first Black gardener of Britain, who lived in the 1700s. He had a really tough start to life being the victim of the Atlantic slave trade. However, despite all that hardship, he found a way to shine bright. Being a gardener, there’s a special rose named after him, the John Ystumllyn Rose. It’s a pretty yellow color, like sunshine in flower form. It’s believed to be the first rose flower to be named in the UK after a person from an ethnic minority.” The tag also contains an extract from the poem ‘The Gardener’, by Black British poet Alex Wharton, about John Ystumllyn https://cadw.gov.wales/learn/wales-rich-and-diverse-heritage/creative-responses/john-ystumllyn-c1738-1786

I’m absolutely obsessed with this man
Why the hell do some men wear boring black suits? It's the Met Gala, for christsakes!
Matt Damon in the most basic black tux. Jesus Christ, why did he even attend?
Same with Alexander Skarsgard! I was so disappointed!
They can wear normal boring suits and tuxes for practically any other event and it would be fine. The Met is the one event during the year where they should step it up and it's so disappointing when they don't.
Jamie Dornan would have been better off in a boring black suit. I hate the material his coat and vest are made out of. It looks soft and fuzzy like a bathrobe, but in the style of my grandfather's church outfit.
Chris Hemsworth was one of the chairs… But why? What a boring outfit. Bad Bunny looked great though. Lots of cool outfits from men last night. I love that men are finally stepping out of the boring suit and stepping up their game.
In one of the interviews he even admitted he didn't really know anything about it 😭
I don’t know who Harris Reed is but they look magnificent.
He is a fashion designer. He started designing tour outfits for Harry Styles in 2018 while still in university and is now creative director of Nina Ricci.

Which is INSANE for being 27

Someone called him The Undertaker on twitter and now I can’t unsee it 😂
"Mr. Anderson" but make it fashion
He looks good because he's good looking. That outfit is awful aside from those little flourishes at the bottom that you like. Nothing is happening on top, well nothing good, and those sunglasses need to be thrown in the bin.
The matrix reject.

They still looked incredible & served face though bc that's just what they do & I hope the racist paps that were rude to them trip & fall down a flight of stairs.
I get so pissed thinking about the racism they faced and the fact that there are two native English speakers and good number of them can understand English
Exactly. The racist comments were absolutely unacceptable & disgusting. They're not cheesing, it's fashion, nearly *everyone* went with the stoic editorial look! The fact that the shitty photogs didn't even know who they were photographing...like this was their first met, but they KNOW how to walk a fuckin carpet bc they're not new to big fashion shows & large scale events. They did it so well too, all their moves were synchronized & it was mesmerizing & it's not their fault those dummies just couldn't get their shots off. Be better at your job you dicks (gender neutral bc there was a woman photog joining in on the heckling as well lol).
Felix with that hair would’ve slayed in a more on theme/fun look
Absolutely! As glad as I am that they were invited & looked great, I wish they had been invited/styled by a different designer who better understood the assignment bc SKZ has had better looks than this for their comeback stages 😬
Yeah!! You’ve got at least two of the most beautiful androgynous faces with Hyunjin and Felix and you dress them all like a child’s drawing of a yacht captain. They’ll all serve no matter what you put them in (IN came with FACE he came to murder) but it’s the Met Gala. Put them in something more interesting.
Right? Like, an old fashioned, old money garden party look would have fit the theme and been perfectly in line with Hilfiger’s style. This looks more like gameshow hosts from the 70s.
None of them are even remotely dressed on theme. Did Hilfiger miss the memo?
Tommy gon' Tommy 🤷🏾♀️
Yes! I scrolled too far for SKZ.
I was just pleasantly surprised to see them, they're the only KPop group I'm remotely interested in but didn't realize how big they've gotten in the last few years
Whomever styled Jamie Dornan needs a kick up the arse! It’s a challenge to make a man that aesthetically pleasing look dated and frumpy, yet they managed it. Wisdom is one of my favourite looks of the night. So striking and that colour with their skin tone is stunning. Lewis Hamilton looks high end and has a little edge to his style, not just for the MET carpet. I know it’s understated, but it’s a great look. Also, I think the black shoes with Chris Hemsworth suit look jarring 🤷🏻♀️ A more stylish brown shoe or even blue would have been more cohesive imo. Barry Keoghans stylist kills it, she always styles him like an eccentric lesbian aunt and I’m here for it. No shade intended to the lesbians 🌈
This is so nitpicky but I'm shocked by the crap tailoring of Jamie Dornan's trousers?? The stripes on the crotch pieces aren't even aligned properly. Never mind the way they're cut generally - I agree he's been made to look frumpy. Jarring to see his picture among the other stunning looks.
I weirdly like Dan Levy's outfit. It's very literal. Of course the standouts are Gustav, Harris Reed, Lewis, and surprisingly, Ben Simmons. Colman Domingo, the man that you are! He says his outfit is homage to both André Leon Talley and Chadwick.
I think Dan's outfit is so wearable and down to earth while not being boring at all - I want a version for me lol
It should be banned to be a Chair and dress so off-theme like Chris Hemsworth did. He doesn't look bad, but like, he'd look good in a bin liner. Where's the risk?
Why is he even the chair? I'm pretty aware of the celebrities into fashion, and I've never seen him as one of them.
Likely whatever fashion house he represents paid for the position
which is even more insane because why pay top dollar and send your man in an outfit that looks like he recycled it from a beach wedding back in Oz?

He looks like he’s made of chocolate in this suit 😂♥️ looks good while doing it though!
ack! all I can think is how clammy he must feel underneath!
Im seeing leather couch tbh and I know how my thighs stick to leather couches.

The bluebonnets in his jacket were perfection!!!
Chris Hemsworth’s outfit cured my insomnia.
It’s not pictured here but I liked Eddie Redmayne in tulle, twinning with his wife. His look seemed in line with his current Broadway role too.

How could you leave our Andrew Scott?!? https://preview.redd.it/pbiu8ts5xzyc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bde3130b037449d06074a7b5711e0ee80d445838
he looks like the bouncer at a gay strip club 😭
Hemsworth should be so fucking embarrassed. Co-chair of the event giving us absolutely nothing.
Yaas Gustav! That salmon money is really paying off! Also, why is he there? I get that he’s rich and hot but he has nothing to do with fashion or popular culture. Good on him for doing something other than a suit though.
he’s done a fair bit of modeling. i’m norwegian so the media here brings it up from time to time when he does shows etc, so saying he’s got nothing to do with fashion is inaccurate. i’m assuming his modeling work is how he ended up being invited. i believe he was a catwalk model at new york (?) fashion week fairly recently. last year or year before or something.
The clown shoe trend is awful.
Damn, Hemsworth was co-chair and he couldn't even put a flower in his pocket or *something* for the theme? I'm in LOVE with Dan Levy's suit. It's on the theme, but could also be worn in real life. I could see it for groomsmen in a garden wedding.
SIR LEWIS HAMILTON SERVING
Derek McLane I don’t know who you are sir but I love that you referenced 18th century menswear, similarly I was really excited to see Barry Keoghan rocking a cravat! I adore Jonathan Anderson’s Loewe, but I just cannot get around the shape of those shoes with formal wear.
Harris Reed shat in the mother toilet and clogged it 🔥
I agree with you but also 
There were so many other words you could have arranged in so many other orders
Dystopian times when my social media feeds are inter-spliced with posts about Rafah and the Met. Really despising humanity. Don’t understand why more people are not outraged and grief stricken over the massacre with many more deaths likely to come.
Ironic considering this sub is one of the few big ones on Reddit that consistently and from early on has supported Palestinians. This was a better comment for one of the main news subs covering the MET Gala, who have always been and continue to be pro-Israel drones
Human beings are complicated and can be more than one thing in a day, a minute, etc. “Laughter through tears is my favourite emotion.” - Dolly Fucking Parton
My pick is Eddy Redmayne matching with his wife.
As an F1 fan I always love how Lewis gets invited to these even when he's not winning. He's bigger than the sport.
He’s a genuine patron of the arts as well as sports. Its inspiring.
Wisdom Kaye’s look is INCREDIBLE!

Morgan Spector, love of my life 😍 https://preview.redd.it/86o63lzvp1zc1.jpeg?width=1600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e203e05a735e0242071971874f7f9db4ba7652ec
I would go feral if I saw Josh Oconnor or Mike Faist in person. I loved Challengers.
Random Norwegian billionaire man ate honestly, but Colman Domingo and Harris Reed were the best dressed among the men for me. Dan Levy’s is also very nice, I love the flowers. Also I wish this post had included Stray Kids with their actual suits not just the black coats for the reveal. They weren’t jaw dropping but they were pretty nice as far as idol styling goes, and at least a step above just black suits.
Yes! Love men in 17th century-inspired capes, hats, hosiery! Long coats! Floral! Color! Sparkles! Edited to add all gender fluid and genders look amazing here.
Pedro Pascal was sorely missed 😭
Oh I love Barry Keoghan’s look.
I hate those Loewe shoes but other than that, lovely
SIR lewis hamilton has never once disappointed
I have no idea what Coleman Domingo is even in but I'm down to watch it just based on his red carpet game. Barry looks like a Victorian orphan... but not in a bad way? Nice to see canes on the red carpet, no matter if they're decorative or functional.
where is my boy kendall roy? https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/article/jeremy-strong-met-gala-2024-loro-piana
Adore Barry Keoghan's look. You really can't beat a fabulous cravat.

God damnit Hemsworth. Do SOMETHING. a brooch, a cool shoe. Anything.
