Tom Ford shades Katy, slams current state of Met Gala

Tom Ford may be one of Anna Wintour’s closest friends, but he’s got some harsh words about what the Met Gala has become.

“The only thing about the Met that I wish hadn’t happened is that it’s turned into a costume party,” the designer said. “That used to just be very chic people wearing very beautiful clothes going to an exhibition about the 18th century.

You didn’t have to look like the 18th century, you didn’t have to dress like a hamburger, you didn’t have to arrive in a van where you were standing up because you couldn’t sit down because you wore a chandelier.”  (The planners often have to provide backless chairs for guests wearing gowns that won't fit into regular seats.)

Indeed, 2019’s camp theme ushered in some of the most over-the-top looks the fundraising event has ever seen — including Kim Kardashian’s impossibly whittled waist, courtesy of the extreme corset she wore under her Thierry Mugler dress. 

According to Odell, Wintour repeatedly asked Love: “Can you please tell her to sit down?” to which Love had to explain that Kardashian physically could not sit in her custom-made corset and custom latex Thierry Mugler dress, which featured dripping crystal droplets.

While Wintour wasn’t pleased with Kardashian’s inability to sit during the Met Gala’s sit-down dinner, she typically loves the fashion-forward outfits worn each year, according to Love. “It’s that English part of her. She loves a dress-up party,” Love said.

The 2022 Met Gala will take place on 2 May, and follow the theme: “In America: An Anthology of Fashion”.

Says the man who showed up to the CAMP category in a lame ass black suit, like... Do you get it?

To be fair, the 2022 Met Gala was a disaster. Each year it keeps getting worse and worse – and not because of Katy Perry.
