Honest Met Gala 2022 Red Carpet Fashion Review (who was the MOST & LEAST on theme?)

literal jeans on the met gala red 
carpet…. this material, girl
bad bunny in burberry giving us  
um i’m honestly not sure what he’s giving us 
i fear that they do love berries and cream
hello everyone my name is Khatia and today 
i thought i would do something a little bit  
different and review the 2022 met gala looks 
since you’re watching this video i’m gonna  
assume you know what the met gala is but for those 
of you that don’t the met gala is a fundraising  
event that is hosted every year in new york by 
the metropolitan museum of art where all these  
celebrities show up in grandiose designer costumes 
in accordance to the theme and the theme this year  
was in America an anthology of fashion / gilded 
glamour which is referring to the gilded age the  
gilded age was a time period between the 1870s 
and 1900s so if we’re pulling some references on  
how people used to dress during this time we can 
refer to HBO’s The Gilded Age, Anna Karenina and  
even Bridgerton to some extent but before we get 
into the outfits i do want to give a little bit of  
a disclaimer i am by no means a fashion expert i 
just like to look at these pretty clothes and say  
my opinions about them none of the comments i make 
are meant to disparage the hundreds and thousands  
of hours of work that went into creating these 
garments all the people involved

in the process
of dressing these celebrities i simply just want
to share what i thought about the met gala and
you are welcome to as well in the comments i’m not
going to be going through every single look just
because there are so many i’m kind of just going
to pick out the ones that stood out to me but if
you do want to see every single met gala look i
will link the resources i used in the description
as well okay like embarrassed to give my opinion
but that’s like what this whole video is about
so we’re starting off strong with blake lively who
wore this beautiful copper versace gown she kind
of flipped the train and it turned out to be aqua
underneath to kind of mimic the statue of liberty
and the way that it oxidized i love seeing
these kinds of extravagant transformations mid
red carpet kind of like what we saw from lady
gaga in the 2019 camp theme so the execution
but the actual dress um not a huge fan of next up
we have pete davidson and kim kardashian so kim is
actually wearing marilyn monroe’s happy birthday
mr president dress i think it’s the most expensive
dress in the world or something so in the studio
photos they took of her i thought the dress was
beautiful like i was like my breath was taken away
but then when i actually saw her on the carpet
it felt like a little bit less exciting than
a lot of the other looks on the red carpet
i just feel like it’s very her you know kim
kardashian in a nude bodycon dress with gems on
it like it really fits her aesthetic and then
pete davidson i’m not a huge fan of when men
on red carpets wear like the most basic black and
white suit and tie i feel like there is potential
for so much more especially when you’re at the met
gala i really appreciate it when male celebrities
go for something a little bit more extravagant
but i feel like at the same time he maybe just
wanted to give kim her moment to shine so that is
kind of cute i suppose then we have bella hadid
in burberry her look is actually pretty similar
to nicki minaj’s as well i’m not sure what they
were really going for though because both of the
looks have like this pvc faux leather material
which i don’t think is very gilded age i think
maybe sometimes when the met gala is approaching
all these celebrities and stylists are very
overwhelmed by how different and cool their
looks have to be so they end up choosing something
that like goes completely outside of the theme and
doesn’t like fit into it at all although some
of the elements like the draping and the corset
and the lace like those kind of fit into the
theme i feel like it would look better if it
was in maybe like a nude color scheme and then
for nicki minaj’s look like she’s literally
wearing a baseball cap i thought baseball
caps were not allowed on formal red carpets
because my girl kylie jenner was also sporting
one and she was wearing an entire wedding dress
i know the whole point is to be like over the
top and whatnot but i feel like this is just
kind of a weird mixture of different types
of clothing that don’t really fit together
and i know that the internet definitely had their
opinions about this one and honestly i’m very much
on the fence because the bottom half of the gown
is like actually really beautiful and i love the
kind of ruffling and detailing on it but the top
half of the look it i feel like completely cancels
that out kendall jenner in prada i honestly do
not like this look at all i do appreciate that
the train is very long and extravagant i know
that is probably a very expensive material but
it’s just not giving for me kourtney kardashian
and travis barker i think what they’re trying
to go for is like when you’re making a dress
the pattern that you make the dress with kind
of looks like what her skirt looks like and then
she’s i think supposed to be like the mannequin or
underneath or something travis barker i like his
suit i like the cut of the sleeves them together
i feel like works really well like visually but
then her dress on its own i really don’t like
it khloe kardashian wore moschino i honestly don’t
know how to feel about this look because i do love
the dress i actually really love like the beading
and the color i think the shape fits her really
well if she wasn’t wearing the gloves it would be
kind of a simple like golden dress so i get why
they went for the gloves but i do really like the
dress way more than the gloves honestly gigi hadid
in versace when i first saw her look i saw it
without the jacket and i was kind of underwhelmed
because i was like why is she just wearing that
you know like that’s not extravagant enough for
the met gala but with the jacket it reminds me
of cardi b’s camp look it looks very like alien
monster-esque which is kind of what pulls me in
i think that’s really cool but at the same time
we see that like pvc/leather material that i just
really don’t think fits within the theme i think
this would have been better fitted for the camp
at gala sizzle pulled up in vivienne westwood
and although i like the shape and draping of the
dress like the hot pink moment i feel like without
the accessories the look maybe would not have been
as striking because you know the hat is so big and
you have like the leather gloves and boots but
at the same time i feel like those accessories
take away from how much potential the dress has
but yeah there is a lot of like pvc/ leather faux
leather material on the red carpet this year and
i don’t understand why because i feel like that
material is the most modern like it’s the furthest
thing from the 1870s that i could possibly think
of but yeah i guess it’s just trendy right now
i think that’s probably what it is jody turner
smith in a gucci gown absolutely turning my head
because you know what i ran an algorithm to see if
it could find any crumbs and the result was no
crumbs found because she ate that up this gown
wow like this material girl like
the rhinestones all over the bodice
just one of my favorite looks from the gala
for sure kid cudi in kenzo wearing the fairy
godmother 5000 cape i know that sounds like i
don’t like it but i actually think it’s like
really cool and it is pretty on theme during the
gilded age men did tend to wear a lot of capes
i also really like the color i love this shade of
blue especially in combination with a white top
with these kinds of sleeves chloe bailey wore an
area gown i honestly really don’t like this one
i don’t know i feel like this dress would be
gorgeous if it didn’t have those two lumps on
the side the top half even though it is like weird
and misshapen and asymmetrical i think it still
looks good but then the the bump on the side with
the slit makes me really uncomfortable for some
reason then we have normani in christian siriano
even though it is a little bit more modern because
of the cutouts and the caging something about
the poofy sleeves and like the shape of the skirt
really fit into this kind of image i have in my
head when i think of the gilded age and also like
the hat i think is just very perfect for this
karlie kloss pulled up in givenchy and she looks
great i actually really love this i love the lace
i love the subtle like glitter i like the shape
of the dress and we also have vanessa hudgens in
a very similar black lingerie type look let’s be
honest she ate this up like she served she served
us and then she sat right down at the table with
us and she ate that up and then she left no crumbs
like at all like she looks amazing i love the poof
sheer sleeves and the like lace detail going on
at the decolletage the accessories and hair match
perfectly with the look as well and her train was
so long and sheer this look is very striking like
when i first saw it i was like oh my gosh like
this girl is serving we also had rosalia step out
in givenchy and wow honestly jaw dropping i love
love love this dress i’m not sure how i feel about
the sunglasses i feel like she could have done
without those but the core setting and the kind
of embroidery and the jewels like i also really
love the draping around the shoulders i feel
like that is just it’s so flattering on anyone
but especially with a dress that has this kind
of shape billy goat eyelashes (billie eilish) in
gucci nailed the theme absolutely hit the hammer
on the nail on the head hit the head of hit
the nail on the head hit the nail on the head
he she hit the nail on the head the like draping
around the hips and waist i think fits perfectly
into how the actual gilded age dresses used to
look she’s got like black hair and the black
choker with like silver on it and then the dress
like very pastel dainty and feminine or whatever
which i guess is like part of her aesthetic you
know she like mixes both so i think that’s kind
of like what they were going for but i would have
liked to see more of like a dainty upper half
still like really love this look one of
my favorites i would put in my top 10.
olivia rodrigo stepped out in versace and wow
as someone who is a huge fan of the color purple
this is giving not sure how well it fits
into the actual theme but the dress itself
is just breathtaking i love this material i
also just really love the neckline of this
dress it’s so flattering kind of like
rosalia’s honestly versace always has
the best met gala looks almost every single
versace look i see like not just at the met gala
but on red carpets they just always give always
cardi b in versace so good this dress it it’s like
it’s just so beautiful and it fits her body
so perfectly i heard from others that this
was kind of like a safe bet because it’s just
like a gold dress which does make sense because
there was a lot of gold dresses on the red carpet
but this one i’m like at a loss for worth i love
this look this is one of my favorites i think
addison rae got a lot of heat for what she wore
to previous met gala and this year’s met gala as
well the dress isn’t necessarily like my favorite
i feel like it would look better if it was more
of like a fit and flare silhouette i don’t think
it was extravagant enough for this event emily
ratajkowski honestly i really like the top i
feel like the top is iconic but then the bottom
half kind of kills it for me i guess i don’t like
the variety of fabrics especially because it’s
also in like rainbow colors and there’s gold and
like fringe and tulle and it’s just like way too
much for my taste bad bunny in burberry giving us
um i’m honestly not sure what he’s giving us it’s
a dress i guess but he’s wearing pants underneath
i i kind of am at a loss for words the way
that he’s standing is really like off-putting
in this picture you know what he looks like
miss trunchbull from matilda that’s kind of
like the energy i’m receiving here i wanna like it
i really do but i just don’t i don’t know if i do
simone ashley in moschino she looks amazing she’s
just absolutely gorgeous i don’t really think that
this fits into the theme but i do really like
how everything is all black so then the top like
really stands out because i really do like the
shape of the bodice and nicola coughlan she’s
wearing a richard quinn gown it’s a little weird
the overall look but it has that it factor that
i think i’m looking for i want to be like a little
bit shocked but also like wow like that looks cool
you know which i feel like she’s kind of nailing
that alessandro michelle and jared leto in gucci
i’m not sure how much i like the suit like on its
own but i do like that they were kind of wearing
the same thing like i thought that was really
striking it kind of reminds me of that time jared
leto went to the met gala and he was holding
a copy of his own head or something so this is
kind of giving me that vibe so i think it’s really
interesting but again like the actual suit not a
huge fan of that madeline pestch pestch i i don’t
know how to pronounce her name but she’s wearing
this beautiful moschino gown i love this one again
like one of my favorites this one is gorgeous
i really like the material i like the color i
think the shape it’s giving me like snow white
energy and like the necklace is like perfectly
balanced i think with the rest of the look it’s
taking my breath away my breath has been taken
away okay future in this boss suit i like how it’s
different i like that he’s wearing shorts and like
showing off the tats but i’m not sure if i would
categorize it as cohesive which i think is like a
common thing that happens at the met gala because
they’re trying to go for like shock factor and
be overwhelming so they end up using like lots of
different crazy things that like don’t necessarily
mesh well together which is what i think is going
on here then we have lizzo which i honestly really
like the robe that she’s wearing and she did like
this whole number on a flute i thought that was
really cool but the actual dress like underneath
the rope is kind of underwhelming i feel like
it’s very boxy and like modern but her overall
look 10 out of 10. tessa thompson is in this
beautiful pink roughly dream one of my favorite
looks again i know i said that about a lot of the
looks but this one it takes the cake i love how
girly and feminine and princess like it is when i
first heard of the theme of the met gala i thought
that the celebrities would dress in royal core
which if you don’t know what that is i do have
a video explaining that in detail so i will link
it in the cards and in the description this is
kind of what i was picturing i love how huge the
train is i feel like the matching boots are like
a really cute modern twist it’s giving cotton
candy and i want to bite glenn close in valentino
rocking that signature magenta shade all the
celebrities that they dressed on the red carpet or
most of them were wearing this shade of pink and i
think that’s just to differentiate valentino from
the rest of the designers on the carpet because of
that i feel like they would need to lean in more
on the silhouettes being accurate to the theme
which i don’t think they did like i think they
just put her in something that fits her and looks
good on her and is like extravagant but again like
not sure that it fits into the theme i know i’m
like a broken record i keep repeating that but
that is like something that i feel like is really
important to us the viewers of the met gala to
like see the theme as we imagined it and when
celebrities like pull through and show us that
it’s really exciting because we’re like yeah like
this is exactly like what i pictured in my head
i’m not getting that kind of validation from this
look so that’s why it’s not one of my favorites
taylor hill in dolce and gabbana i honestly feel
like it’s very much on theme it looks very like
a royal court to me especially because of the
color and how big and extravagant the dress
dresses and like the ruffling the matching boots
i feel like the boots really complete the look
not david lauren wearing literal
jeans on the met gala red carpet
and they’re not even like they’re ripped jeans sir
and like the top half of his outfit is a suit like
this one just makes me angry we’re going to move
on sabrina carpenter in paco rabanne it’s pretty
simple you know there’s not a whole lot going on
but i think that’s what i like about it i really
love her style in general megan the stallion in
moschino this is exactly what i was expecting
and she looks amazing she looks amazing all the
time i really like the cape with the feathers we
stan lenny kravitz is giving us another sheer lace
moment he looks sick the lace like the lace cape
it’s giving he’s got the leather pants on which
i’m not like 100 into but within the scope of the
look absolutely serving definitely like out of
the men he’s taking the top spot right now i’m
probably pronouncing this wrong but Ho Yeon Jung
in louis vuitton definitely not on theme i think
that was very well established by the internet
when they first saw this look it’s giving me
y2k and i think that’s exactly the problem emma
stone in louis vuitton underwhelmed me she could
wear this to any red carpet it looks more like
flapper era than it does anything else to me
i just feel like she could have done so much more
with this you know like a feather boa or like some
kind of jewelry like she’s not even really wearing
much jewelry i think maybe some of the celebrities
don’t really want to wear extravagant trains and
like big like feathery pieces because they have to
like actually wear it and like walk the red carpet
in and it’s gonna be like really uncomfortable
so this seems like a very comfortable choice but
that’s part of why i don’t like it because i want
them to wear the most extravagant thing they can
think of and for it to be uncomfortable because
that’s the whole point of the night my god my foot
is falling asleep wake up girl we gotta review
the met gala evan mock in head of state this is
perfect this is exactly what i was picturing i
like how it’s corsetted how it has the extravagant
neckline and the sleeves so beautiful i feel like
maybe the pants fall short of like what the top
does but i also really like the color of this
look and the defined shoulders i think that looks
really sick sarah jessica parker in christopher
john rogers this is giving me carrie bradshaw like
this is exactly what carrie bradshaw would wear to
the met gala the material like really throws
it off for me because i feel like if it was
just like one solid color i would be in love with
this look but because it has gray and black and
white and all these different shades it’s a little
bit overwhelming frederick robertson definitely
made headlines with this look it is giving ex
machina matrix super futuristic and like robotic
alien energy i i think that’s really cool but
say it with me kids it doesn’t fit into the theme
and the last look i want to talk about is
autumn de wild this is another like fairy
godmother type energy and i really like it like
i think it looks really cool it’s giving me like
the quaker oats man i think the pink and gold
go very well together i really like the bow
i think it looks sick i like the cane i saw
someone on twitter say that it looks like
some of these celebrities really love berries and
cream and i fear that that might be true i fear
that they do love berries and cream and on that
