Lauren Sanchez Bezos criticized for her Met Gala dress<\/p>\n
Jeff Bezos\u2019 wife, Lauren S\u00e1nchez<\/a>, faces backlash for her Met Gala fashion choice. The former journalist modeled a navy Schiaparelli gown at the annual fashion event. The dress boasted a deep neckline with gold-pearl straps and was cinched at her waist perfectly.<\/p>\n As per Vogue<\/a>, the figure-hugging dress is a reference to \u201cMadame X\u201d by John Singer Sargent, a famous portrait in the museum\u2019s collection. S\u00e1nchez revealed to Vogue that she was particularly impressed by the inspiring story behind the gorgeous outfit.<\/p>\n The 56-year-old said, \u201cWhen you stand in front of it now, you see a beautiful woman. For me, the image represents how fashion and cultural standards can shift over time. Today, a strap is a strap, but back when Madame X was painted by Sargent, a strap was a scandal.\u201d<\/p>\n The philanthropist accessorized with Lorraine Schwartz jewels. She wore pearl drop earrings and an exquisite diamond ring. S\u00e1nchez opted for a simple hairstyle, with her hair falling in gentle waves cascading down her shoulders. The former journalist sported soft glam makeup with defined lashes and nude lipstick. She also flaunted nude manicured nails (via PEOPLE<\/a>).<\/p>\n However, the internet is not exactly floored by S\u00e1nchez\u2019s navy blue gown. One fan commented,<\/a> \u201cThat woman needs to get a life. Nobody is interested in a mariachi gown.\u201d A second fan wrote<\/a>, \u201cStupid. Women wanting to be something special. You can\u2019t get \u2018it\u2019 from a dress. Embarrassing.\u201d A third fan remarked, \u201cShe could\u2019ve at least attempted to be on theme.\u201d<\/p>\n
