Met Gala: Heavenly Bodies - Fashion and the Catholic Imagination



This year's MET Gala has been quite stunning and i'm so glad of that. The theme was quite easy to follow and many celebs have gone ahead with it and provided amazing looks, while others did so little about it just by having a cross necklace or not sticking to the theme at all. But below are my total favorite looks from the night, because this year the Met Gala hasn't disappointed. I haven't included Katy Perry because that was too much, Cardi B., because she looked exactly like an old Beyonce look and we all know it, or the Jenners who didn't even try. Check all of them after the cut!

Kate Bosworth was absolutely beautiful looking like a virgin in this dreamy Oscar de la Renta gown

 This was an easy theme for Madonna as she provided a total look in Jean Paul Gaultier

 SZA has to be my favorite look as she looked heavenly and cute in Versace

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley had a pristine look in Ralph Lauren

Lana del Rey's look in motion looks amazing, as she and Jared Leto were wearing Gucci and looked like they came straight out of a painting

70th Annual Academy Awards 2018



Long time no see, huh? The thing is that i've been on hiatus because i have this big test coming up in a few months and i had to really focus on it, but i've missed posting some things here and the specials i used to do so i'm taking a little bit of time to it. I will be catching up with some old news like the Academy Awards that i couldn't miss and also be posting some new stuff, so this blog is not over.

And about the Academy Awards this year i have to say that they were kind of satisfactory as the overrated 'Get Out' didn't get the Best Picture Award as i thought it would (i'm sorry but despite the message that lies within the movie, it didn't fascinate me that much). This year my absolute favorite was obviously 'Call Me By Your Name' because that film really mesmerized me, and out of the three noms it received, it got the Best Adapted Screenplay award which was really great. Another favorite of mine that really blew my mind and i didn't expect that was Paul Thomas Anderson's 'Phantom Thread' which was really exquisite and twisted and only got Best Achievement in Costume Design which was highly deserved but i would had given them Best Actor for the farewell performance of Daniel Day Lewis and Best Director. Another movie that was brilliant was 'Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri' with a stellar performance from Frances McDormand that obviously got the award for Best Actress. Sam Rockwell got Best Supporting Actor and he did good but i loved way more Woody Harrelson's heartbreaking performance on that film as he was also nominated in that category. And my other favorite that only got one nomination was the super cute, real and tender 'The Florida Project' with Willem Dafoe also nominated as Best Supporting Actor. This movie deserved more credit, as it did director Sean Baker for 'Tangerine', but well things are like this.

And now, about the red carpet, this year they really put on some really pretty and amazing dresses! Starting with gorgeous Lupita Nyong'o in Atelier Versace and Danai Gurira in Gabriella Hearst (above) the best looks from the night. Don't miss the rest after the cut!

2017 MET Costume Institute Gala 'Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons: Art of the In-Between'

The MET Gala night is always one of my favorite nights of the year because i always wake up to see all the pretty dresses and the stars shining on the red carpet. Truth is, that the past few years, the looks haven't been as fabulous as once were, but this year's theme was edgy and risky so the expectations were high. And, while the designer on whom they inspired the theme is quite abstract, some have followed the theme and others have totally ignored. As always. Sadly there had been some major absences like Sarah Jessica Parker, Kirsten Dunst or Nicole Kidman, but after the cut i've posted all the interesting looks the Met Ball has given us this year. But i think there's no argument on Best Dressed as Rihanna was the absolute queen. Totally mesmerizing.

Rihanna was on absolute point dressing Comme des Garçons and was totally stunning. She risked and this year she totally slayed. A queen.

Tracee Ellis Ross was also dressing Comme des Garçons and was exquisite, elegant and followed the theme, and the colour of the gown looked gorgeous on her.

I adored Mary Kate's and Ashley Olsen's looks, i couldn't find what are they dressing but i bet is any of their lines, like The Row, but they looked like Renaissance nymphs.
