My dear readers, as with all Met Galas, the WTF is a generous pile of wonder. These WTF looks generally fall into three categories:
- how are you wearing that and not revealing your nipples and/or genitals
- OMG that is amazing
- my brain is unable to comprehend what is happening
But this year there is also a secret category... what could it be? Let's go in order, shall we?
How Are You Wearing That and Not Revealing Your Nipples and/or Genitals?!
Rita Ora!
Okay first of all, I cannot imagine a world where there is enough double stick tape to make me confident that the entirety of the Met Gala would not suddenly become my gynecologist while walking. But this is the over the top sheer draping I was talking about with Gigi Hadid yesterday. Yes give me TWO trains, elaborate appliques, more drama. And, yes, more danger too.
Rachel Brosnahan!
Twist around too fast to see Gisele flapping behind you and it's nips o'clock! Also, I hope she had at least bandaids because I can only imagine the chaffing.
Michaela Coel!
How would one walk in such an amazing creation without also revealing the entirety of one's bathing suit areas?
Pedro Pascal!
His ENTIRE KNEES are showing on the red carpet! Escandalo!
OMG That Is Amazing
Janelle Monae!
This is so wild and I just love it. They really know how to bring the drama to the show, keeping on theme but also within the realm of their signature colors and style.
Anok Yai!
The extreme corsetry makes her look like she was not dressed so much as carved out of marble into this look. It's a little bit jelly fish, a little bit liquid, and the look is pretty amazing to behold.
Anna Wintour and Bill Nighy!
"Just good friends" yeah right. I looooove this turn of events. Please actually be dating.
Jeremy Pope!
Why yes of course it's a staircase-length cape bearing KL's image. What did you think Jeremy Pope was going to show up in? A violin dress? Let's get another look.
My Brain Is Unable To Comprehend What Is Happening
Erykah Badu!
Erykah Badu took inspiration this year from long haired highland cows.
Penelope Cruz!
Pen Cruz made her first holy communion at the Met Gala.
Yung Miami (seen here with Diddy)!
Unfortunate timing that Yung Miami was forced to wear a recovery cone collar to the Met Gala but at least no one could get close enough for a hug. And, as I mentioned in the Good, Diddy is wearing a fine but less successful version of Brian Tyree Henry's look.
Alton Mason! Sure.
And finally! Our secret fourth category....
People Dressed as Choupette, the Cat
Doja Cat!
Extra points to Doja Cat for going for Choupette But Make It Fashion and a million points forever to her for only answering any reporter questions with "meow." Hero.
Ugh Jared Leto!
This freakin guy. Did you see the video of Lizzo hugging him and mouthing over his shoulder "who is this?" Her reaction when she finds out who she is hugging is classique.
Lil Nas X!
I mean! THIS is how you dress as a cat for the Met Gala. This is so astounding, I would even go so far as to say it is a Full Tonga!
And that's a wrap! Thank you as always for reading! xo

You have never seen anyone so excited as all the people in my household when we found out WTF was up.
