Met Gala 2015


If you read my World of The Orient piece a few months back, once again Oriental Fashion Styles has taken centre stage, this time at the famous Met Gala 2015 with its theme - China Through The Looking Glass.

Met Gala is usually hosted by Vogue's Fashion Editor Anna Wintour and it is like the 'Fashion Oscars' so to speak, and it is here where a lot of Hollywood Stars and Fashion Designers gather and celebrate the World of Fashion. It is also known that it's the only time where the most outrages designs are worn and it won't be so much cruelly critised because Fashion here is seen as a form of Art!

What goes on inside I do not know but this year, I am proud to share with you some of the fantastic designs displayed at the Met Gala. I would say that so much creativity is displayed with just a simple Chinese Style theme. There's of course the crazy outrages designs worn by celebs like Rihanna, Lady Gaga and Sarah Jessica Parker, the elegantly designed pieces worn by Kate Beckinsale, Emily Blunt and Amal Clooney, and of course designs which our mothers would never approve of or in this case I would never even think of wearing such as Kim Kardarshian and Beyonce. And there's of course those who don't keep to the theme such as Solange Knowles, Clare Danes and even Donnatella Versace.

So here's this year's Met Gala with all its glory... enjoy!





Inside Met Gala


























    


   

 

 


The Red Carpet
A striking creation: Zendaya Coleman worked the red carpet in an odd Fausto Puglisi number






Taking it seriously: Earning points for sticking to the theme were Chloe Sevigny (L), in JW Anderson and Karen Elson in Dolce & Gabbana


A severe look: Lady Gaga teamed a netted custom Alexander Wang for Balenciaga black and white robe with a headdress, sparkly platforms, and extreme eyebrows








The Force is strong with this one: Anne Hathaway looked like something out of Star Wars in her gold hooded Ralph Lauren creation







On display: The reality star's Roberto Cavalli design hugged every inch of her curves, and had the effect of a nude bodysuit

Lovely in lilac: Alexa Chung proved her style credentials in a gorgeous full-skirted Erdem number in a pretty purple, complete with embroidery

Leggy display: The British model scored extra points by flaunting her enviable pins in the striking gown, which also showed off her ample cleavage


Golden era: Actress Kate Kate Beckinsale channelled '50s Hollywood in a gold halterneck gown and her hair in shiny waves

Blossoming: While many people have praised Bee's beautiful gown, some people on Twitter noticed that the blossom theme was more Japanese than Chinese





New 'do: Katie Holmes debuted her fringed brunette bob while dazzling in a cut-out midnight blue Zac Posen gown

Cheers!: Lizzy Caplan was beautiful in her Donna Karan Atelier crepe creation, which featured delicate embellishment
