I think if anybody else wore it everybody would think she ate. I agree, she set the bar too high for herself and with all of the press tours people are a bit fatigued with her turning out looks. Hopefully she takes a break
Z hss taken Over the fashion worldfor what seems like the last 6months/ last night at Met dinner she killed again. I love whst she and Law did... seen no one less to come close.Big dresses do not appeal to me. Z is so sophisticated in her choice!
@@3vivkShe usually is quiet when she’s not working. She will be filming in September and she’s been working for the past few months I think she is going to take a break after this since she’s going to be working in the fall.
I love Zendaya’s dress and, after her last few outings, I bet her main aim with this outfit was to be able to sit down without injuring herself. She looks amazing no matter what.
Except that it actually wasn't the case since she walked the met gala carpet again wearing a second look and unfortunately it wasn't even that good, law roach made her look like a black widow
Yes, I also really like his look! I also love that they "left in" the stitches, which to me look like some kind of basting stitch? It fits nicely into the theme imo, showing the timeline of the garment
I agree. Bad Bunny reminded me of Goya, Picasso and Salvador Dali a lot. Spanish Art fits this Garden of Time theme really well given they're like Europe's Eden but mostly a desert...and yet, still Eden.
Like they look lovely and maybe if I reach I can argue that it’s on theme but yeah they didn’t do much. At least the girl in gold reminds me of Tinkerbell and their pixie dust tree.
The book was the dress code, the theme was the exhibition. I think Zendaya did amazing with the belladonna interpretation! Most people were just wearing beige
@@absolutelynotarobot dress and theme are both the same. The exhibition was the “ Reawakening of Sleeping Beauties” the Theme was Garden of time, which based off of the exhibition was metaphorical for the preservation of significant and historical garments. Pivitol moments in fashion, art, history, etc. that what I mostly garnered and that’s what seemed to be the goal post.
I was expecting more statues inspo since in the short story the count and his wife turn into stone surrounded by torns (kinda like in the sleeping beauty) Like a weeping angel or something like that, I mean the pasage of time in a garden can be seen in the forgotten statues overgrown vegetation, sunbleached surfeces, rotten stuff left outside, fungi... As time passes things decay and grow. Clocks and pretty flower alone were basic and lazy.
@@absolutelynotarobotthe belladonna inspiration was great! This year's dress code was extremely broad, imo those who referenced the meaningful parts of the novel (so crystal flowers, sand, wild and neglected gardens and statues) understood the theme, those who went for "flower vintage" or "nature stuff" didn't get it. Also I don't understand why so many sea references?
More? What are you people 12? This is fashion, not the biggest and the loudest... Z was the most beautiful and sophisticated outfit in attendance tonight!
The Zendaya thing annoys me because she's been killing it for so long that if she has a look that isn't head and shoulders above everyone else ppl say it isn't good. No she was better dressed than 99% of attendees she just didn't outdo other looks you've seen HER do
He didn’t say it isn’t good he just said he isn’t that impressed with her outfit. And just because she did better than the other people there doesn’t mean it was phenomenal you saw the other looks most weren’t even on theme. And the met gala is one of the biggest fashion event every year so you expect her to go hard and slay which she did but it was a minute slay.
I was curious to see what Zendaya and Law would come up with because even as recent as a week ago, she was on a press junket for Challengers and told different journalists that she didn’t even have a dress to hint at yet. I feel like they were so overwhelmed with the back to back press tours that the Met Gala look fell by the wayside 🤷🏾♀️ EDIT: The second look she changed into was much better. Glad to see they had something extra up their sleeves.
@@nanadecarvalho7840I have heard Spider-Man is going to be filming in September so if she is not going to be nominated for any awards she will probably be working.
I like Emma Chamberlain’s dress. Gardeners try and plan the garden beds with 4 seasons of interest. Gardens through time, not just focused on buds, or blooms, but wilting, 🥀 autumn decay, & skeletonize leaves 🍂
I'm still confused on why Chris Hemsworth is a co-host of the event, cuz he's definitely not known for fashion, maybe he knows how to bring money to a fundraiser? Idk it's one of those things where it kills the illusion that Anna Wintor is THE judge of fashion, she's not, but for this event she is, so why him? So many other interesting men who take risks and are fashionable would've been better picks.
@@TH-camaccount50512 I would say it did since she was holding an hourglass and her whole outfit was sand, she is representing time which goes along with the theme “the garden of time”
Tyla’s garment was kinda lack luster from a distance. Which is a shame, I believe you’ll have to see it in real life, up close, to really get into the artistry of the garment. The dress looks like grains of sand, and it’s molded to her body so well. I wish she did add a bit more sand on more parts of her body rather than just one arm. But other than that, the pictures really didn’t do the dress much justice.
Zendaya’s dress is ruined by the bottom half. Had the skirt gone into an open-front or split cascading garden vine look rather than the wrapper from a Liquorice all-sorts that it is, it would have been stunning.
I think it wasn’t very much on point tho. I get it. “Sands of time” with the sand dress and the hourglass handbag. Great concept, but Balmain could’ve done more to or with the outfit. Her outfit was normal. Kinda boring actually. In MY opinion ❤
I feel that this year's theme might have made everyone less creative. It looks like they all just went "flowers!" and left it at that. So lots of pretty looks, but nothing showstopping (which is sad, cuz I was really hoping someone would wear an outfit entirely made out of clocks).
I feel like I've seen JLo do that look before. The Garden theme would've been a great opportunity to go bold w greens and blues and reds and juushhh it up w gold!
Well she’s ten minutes older than dirt, so of course she’s probably worn every single permutation of a way a garment can possibly be worn!! She was around when they were deciding whether to eat that apple or not loooolol 🤭
I mean… the fact only a handful of people actually read the story the garden of time theme came from is EVIDENT… and the people who understood the assignment are going unnoticed or unappreciated. Yeesh..
The Jlo dress has got to be one of my favourite nearly nude dresses I’ve seen. It’s very cheeky and nearly nude but covers up the bits in a way that looks natural for the outfit and the dress is giving waves which I like.
I think J-lo's dress kinda looks like crystal butterfly wings, so that would be on theme. Does kinda feel like they could've gone further, or maybe a couple more shades. Also I think Zendaya's dress is really pretty. I like how the shoulder sash diagonals are continued in the dress going down and ending up horizontal at the bottom.
Listen when I first saw the look I felt like you did but after I took in the entire look and not just the dress I was sold. Her makeup, the hair, the back, and her posing on the carpet took the look over the top. The overall style and look did it for me.
That's what I said. She does the most and incorporates hair, makeup and acting into her appearances. It makes the difference, brings the theme to life and separates her from the rest. Even the second look, almost makeup free, fit the part! Everyone else had nice dresses, but I remember nothing else about them (hair, makeup etc). I've heard plenty of people say, wear the hair, and everything else plain to focus on the dress. Zendaya has proven, quit spectacularly, that's NOT the case!
I was expecting more from Zendaya too. Very underwhelmed. Jlo has done that dress a million times. Boring. Bad Bunny is boring too but at least he tried unlike other men 😑.
I loved Zendaya’a so much! It felt very 90’s to me, but not the 90’s kids nostalgia, actual real world 90’s. I feel like I would see these colors and vibes at my aunt’s attempt at a luxury Garden of Eden themed dinner or something. Which sounds like a diss, but I was just really feeling it.
I just knew you would not like what Zendaya is wearing. I love watching your video i just knew the moment i saw the dress ... I'm like ok i was expecting something more from her ..i like her head piece and the upper part of the outfit but the lower part just ruined the look... special that shiny plastici net material looks cheap and the way scrunched up when she moves really gives last moment vibes ....i totally get you
It's beautiful but not on theme. The whole point of this event is for the designers to design outfits on a particular theme. The beauty is to see different interpretations of a specific idea. If the goal was just to be pretty, it would be no different than the Oscars or any other award show.
@@catladyfromky4142it is on theme! The Garden of Time is a direct reference to the short story by JG Ballard and its themes on renewal and destruction. Zendaya’s dress is a reinterpretation of a Jean Galliano for Dior dress from the 1990s - a “renewal” of something old
@@solahlee871 Totally. And Tyla's dress references the sands of time and the fact that we are running out of time due to global warming and all the gardens of the world will become sandy deserts. The stiffness and body sculpture elements of the dress reference the fact that the count and countess turn to stone statues at the end of Ballard's story.
Jlo I think is supposed to represent the glass/crystal flowers in the garden. Bad bunny seems to be representing the more metaphorical telling of destruction, uncycling and renewal. So this deconstructed kind of look also makes sense to me.
Yes, I think J Lo's look was inspired by the crystal time flowers from JG Ballard's short story A Garden of Time. A lot of the critics don't seem to know that the short story was part of the theme.
I think the guy with the clock suicase fits the theme , with how the suit is slowly being over taken by the darker color , much like how flowers wilt or things disintegrate with the passage of time. Even if it IS simple .
I think Bad Bunny’s was a reference to the actual exhibition about how garments are maintained with the deconstructed suit look (also playing with time, suits in the past, etc), and the last look is a very clear reference to the short film ‘garden of time’ which is pretty cool, and shows that they did their research!!
Oh my gosh, you are the first person i agree with about all of these looks. I couldn't have said it better myself. I thought the Met was boring and underwhelming this year. They could have really pushed it and gone with a lot color or just over all more interesting looks. The possibilities were endless with this theme and yet they did not deliver.
I ADORE the colors of zendaya's dress and the details. It's very dark and mysterious which I love. Garden of time you'd expect to see golds whites and greens but this isn't it, which is perfect.
Bad Bunny's was great! It's very fairy tale-esque, with the old fashioned footwear, the nod to old fashioned military silhouette and details. He looks like a fantastical character from a dreamy, somewhat surreal tale set in an enchanted garden
I feel like with the "Garden of Time" theme, many celebrities just completely ignored the time part and solely focused on garden since that is easier.🤷
Agreed!! As always you hit it on the nail. Honestly, I think that color is too harsh for Zendaya ‘s skin tone. I would love and prefer to see this dress on a dark skin girl. Love the makeup though. Second Zendaya outfit -I absolutely love the headpiece however, the dress was simply ok to me.
1999 Dior SS y’all. The pieces from that collection are incredible and consistently off putting to our modern fashion. (veryyyy 90’s!) It’s supposed to look a little crazy. Law saw archival and they did it on theme. The point is that it’s not what we expected, from Dior or Zendaya. Not every piece needs to be timeless, I love that it’s very much so a product of it’s time, kinda the point of the exhibit!! I find it fascinatingly gorgeous.
I lovedd Zendaya's fit. It is true that she has indeed set the bar up high for herself. She has been slaying constantly esp ever since Dune 2 press, like girl has not had one miss. And the met gala fit is amazing as well. To me it perfectly encapsulates the theme, she looked liked a woodland fairy and the make up was so.on.point. Her second look was a slay was as well.
Garden of time theme is based on the short story by JG Ballard. The story is ultimately about how the structures of opulence (the count and his wife) and exorbitance (the garden) are being threatened by an incoming mob of a army, the sick, and the common folk. To keep the mob at bay the count uses the crystal flowers but it's a resource that's limited and running out. Ultimately the theme elements are ethereal, crystal, opulence, rococo, classical, baroque, RIIICH.
Zendaya just pull out another dress that’s is sooo much better in my opinion. However, I do believe people need to relax about her not being the best dressed all the time. Like people are almost scared to say that is underwhelming? She would be fine, we all be fine 😅
Someone on Instagram said, and I quote: "JLo paid Schiaparelli to make a Zuhair Murad dress ...." just putting that statement out there 💁🏽♀️🏃🏽♀️......
I also thought this look was not the best (save for the makeup, it's gorgeous), but Zendaya's SECOND look??? With that bouquet on her head??? Oh my goodness that look was everything and more !!!
I think there might be a thing of “aging like wine” she was a child actress who absolutely did not fall off after Disney and it feels like this is a celebration of how she’s even cooler as an adult
The first person to say out loud what I’ve been thinking this whole time, I was expecting more from Zendaya. I thought the flower bouquet 💐 headpiece in her second outfit was cool though
Not a fan of the dress but I appreciate her being on theme and actually going for it. But I seen Law post a white flora dress & I liked it a bit more but I get this dress is paying homage.
Zendaya has set a high bar for herself. It’s noteworthy only in that it’s unlike anything SHE has worn and at least it’s on topic.
I think if anybody else wore it everybody would think she ate. I agree, she set the bar too high for herself and with all of the press tours people are a bit fatigued with her turning out looks. Hopefully she takes a break

I love Zendaya’s dress and, after her last few outings, I bet her main aim with this outfit was to be able to sit down without injuring herself. She looks amazing no matter what.
Maybe she’s thinking everybody is going to go over the top, so the way to stand out is to go classic and pared down. And of course, she looks perfect.
Gotta agree❤

Dont they change for the dinner sitting part in something thats comfortable

@@tinachristine4573i would have thought she would wear it and make it seem like it fit the theme 🤭

Idk, I think Zendaya’s sort of vampy idea of the garden is lovely and perfect. The makeup is immaculate.
I totally agree.
I'm just missing the TIME element from 99% of who attended lol
yeah, i love it
"Thank you for nothing" 😂im dying

I loved the zendaya look! It feels so unlike what she normally wears (particularly the makeup) and the archival reference i think is great
Emma Chamberlain was top of this bunch in my humble opinion
agreed
Same
Zendaya’s outfit is actually slayed.
it fits the theme of the Met. girl ate and left no crumbs
She was also so genius to come back near the end and re-walk the carpet in a second look....passage of time....nailed it.
Tyla’s look was the best, the concept was on point

Love the 2nd fit she changed into!! ❤❤. Can’t wait to hear your thoughts!
I ADORE the colors of zendaya's dress and the details. It's very dark and mysterious which I love.
Garden of time you'd expect to see golds whites and greens but this isn't it, which is perfect.
Bad Bunny's was great! It's very fairy tale-esque, with the old fashioned footwear, the nod to old fashioned military silhouette and details. He looks like a fantastical character from a dreamy, somewhat surreal tale set in an enchanted garden
I feel like with the "Garden of Time" theme, many celebrities just completely ignored the time part and solely focused on garden since that is easier.🤷
Idunno what Grapes of Wrath is about, but I imagine Zendaya is in it looking just like that.
She looks like a winery decorated in 2004
Her second look was insane tho
I feel like Emma feels like a greek parka, those that oversaw time. So i kinda like it
Tyla and Emma were my favorites. It's easy to do flowers/garden but they took on a whole other dimension to the theme
Agreed!! As always you hit it on the nail.
Honestly, I think that color is too harsh for Zendaya ‘s skin tone. I would love and prefer to see this dress on a dark skin girl. Love the makeup though. Second Zendaya outfit -I absolutely love the headpiece however, the dress was simply ok to me.
Emma and Tyla served the best looks of met gala 2024. Who agree with me 👇🏻👇🏻
I expected more from Zendaya. I feel like a lot of people say she looks good just bc it’s Zendaya
I hated the colors of zendayas dress they’re ugly
I absolutely love how you interpret high fashion in such an artful sophisticated way. Makes me feel like I could be apart of the elites 😂❤
1999 Dior SS y’all. The pieces from that collection are incredible and consistently off putting to our modern fashion. (veryyyy 90’s!) It’s supposed to look a little crazy. Law saw archival and they did it on theme. The point is that it’s not what we expected, from Dior or Zendaya. Not every piece needs to be timeless, I love that it’s very much so a product of it’s time, kinda the point of the exhibit!! I find it fascinatingly gorgeous.
I called it last night that she would be wearing this dress but the og one. Honestly
.....I wanted more too. I was hoping for something from Guo Pei
I lovedd Zendaya's fit. It is true that she has indeed set the bar up high for herself. She has been slaying constantly esp ever since Dune 2 press, like girl has not had one miss.
And the met gala fit is amazing as well. To me it perfectly encapsulates the theme, she looked liked a woodland fairy and the make up was so.on.point. Her second look was a slay was as well.
Garden of time theme is based on the short story by JG Ballard. The story is ultimately about how the structures of opulence (the count and his wife) and exorbitance (the garden) are being threatened by an incoming mob of a army, the sick, and the common folk. To keep the mob at bay the count uses the crystal flowers but it's a resource that's limited and running out.
Ultimately the theme elements are ethereal, crystal, opulence, rococo, classical, baroque, RIIICH.
Zendaya actually had two met gala outfits and i think the second one was amazing as well, maybe better to other people.
Zendaya just pull out another dress that’s is sooo much better in my opinion. However, I do believe people need to relax about her not being the best dressed all the time. Like people are almost scared to say that is underwhelming? She would be fine, we all be fine 😅
Someone on Instagram said, and I quote: "JLo paid Schiaparelli to make a Zuhair Murad dress ...."
just putting that statement out there 💁🏽♀️🏃🏽♀️......
Guess it's different strokes for different folks. Both rounds fabulous for me. Thank you very much... ❤
I absolutely adore the dress. No technicality involved in my opinion. I think she looks amazing and on theme
She did really good though. Compared to everyone else. I feel she doesn't owe us crazy cause this is still within her style
I agree with all you mentioned. Zendaya looked fabulous as in fashion but it was not much of the theme. Still one of the best ones. Love her!
I thought it was just me. I wanted more. I liked the makeup looks a lot.
I also thought this look was not the best (save for the makeup, it's gorgeous), but Zendaya's SECOND look??? With that bouquet on her head??? Oh my goodness that look was everything and more !!!
Thought the same on Zendaya until I realized she had several outfits.
Elle Fanning should be the talk of the MET.
I think there might be a thing of “aging like wine” she was a child actress who absolutely did not fall off after Disney and it feels like this is a celebration of how she’s even cooler as an adult
The only one that stood out for me was that beautiful sari!!!
The first person to say out loud what I’ve been thinking this whole time, I was expecting more from Zendaya. I thought the flower bouquet 💐 headpiece in her second outfit was cool though
Idc what yall say but Zendaya owned that red carpet
I like Zendaya's outfit, reminds me beautiful statues in a garden
Not a fan of the dress but I appreciate her being on theme and actually going for it. But I seen Law post a white flora dress & I liked it a bit more but I get this dress is paying homage.
Zendaya showed up at the bottom of the stairs later that night in a 2nd dress. Plus a third dress once inside the event. Slay
I think Zendaya was absolutely on point. I don't care if this guy "knows what he's talking about," it's still only his opinion.
