Welcome back for my Met Gala wrap-up. I’ve scoured the interwebs and found most of the images I wanted to post: the good, the bad, and the “what were they thinking?” Again, here’s the explanation of the theme:

Anna Wintour’s co-chairs for the evening are Zendaya, Jennifer Lopez, Bad Bunny, and Chris Hemsworth. This will be Hemsworth’s first time attending the ball, while the other three co-chairs have participated in previous years. The theme of “The Garden of Time” is drawn from J.G. Ballard’s 1962 short story of the same name. The garden party theme is already in full bloom as the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s stairway is adorned with hundreds of fake flowers. This gala complements the Met’s current exhibit, “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.”

The Great

The Good

They’re good, some are really good. I

The Meh

The Nekkid

This is a new category due to so many people forgetting to wear clothes.

The men and couples.

First, Rita Ora and Taika Watiti. He’s in an all-leather suit. In May. She is wearing a nude bodysuit with beads from the second century B.C. I’m serious — that’s what she said. Ora said her look was inspired by the Garden of Eden, which would have been the first garden. I love this take, but the look is so bad.

Most of these did not upload correctly. The images reverted to the uncropped versions and I tried several times to fix them before giving up. I apologize, this is far below Kerry Blog standards.

The WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?

I’m including all of the metallic dresses because it wasn’t that they were metallic – they were super metallic.

Kim Kardashian is here because her corset has her waist so tight that people on the interwebs are concerned for her internal organs. She had this to say to Vogue:

The “Kardashians” star explained that she was trying to look like she was in a rush after having “the wildest night” of her life “in a garden.”

“And I just ran out and grabbed my boyfriend’s sweater and threw it on and had to get to work,” she added, laughing about the look she was going for. “My hair is all messed up.”

“How’s your breathing? How’s it going” a voice asks off-camera before Kardashian replies, “It’s … it’s an art form. But I got it.”

She oddly had the gray cardigan on and people speculated that she had a wardrobe malfunction, and though she says otherwise, I agree. Kim kept pulling the sweater off her right shoulder, showing off her bust, but held the left side tight throughout the red carpet walk. To remind you, in 2022, she wore a fur coat over the back of Marilyn Monroe’s dress because it would not zip up. It’s not like we don’t know she’s done this sort of thing before. The waist makes me ill because she has daughters and they’re seeing this. She didn’t have to wear a corset that gives her a 17-inch waist (I’m guessing). Why wear something you admit makes you struggle to breathe? Make it make sense, Kim.
