\u201cFashion Is Art\u201d dress code<\/a> invited a range of interpretations. For Skepta, the British rapper and designer, it meant showing his skin \u2014 in a way: He wore an all-white Thom Browne jumpsuit with embroidery that mimicked his tattoos.<\/p>\n\u201cI\u2019m fully exposed,\u201d he said as he showed how his neck tattoo matched the one on the collar of the jumpsuit.<\/p>\n
His favorite part of his body? \u201cMy eyes, because I don\u2019t have to speak much,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
The rapper and singer Doja Cat showcased what she admired most about her own body in a see-through Saint Laurent dress.<\/p>\n
\u201cI like my boobies,\u201d she said with a smile. \u201cEverybody\u2019s body is a one-of-a-kind. Even if you get enhancements or things like that, you\u2019re still a one-of-a-kind. You might look similar to somebody else, but you\u2019re still always going to just be you.\u201d<\/p>\n
In a different part of the gallery, Mark Zuckerberg, the Meta chief executive, stood next to Eva Chen and Adam Mosseri, both of Instagram. When a reporter tried to ask Zuckerberg a question, Chen swooped in and suggested Mosseri respond instead.<\/p>\n
He said his favorite thing about his body was being tall.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s just something nice about being able to have a lot of presence when you walk in,\u201d Mosseri said.<\/p>\n
Walking in alongside Mon\u00e1e and Domingo was the French singer and model Yseult in custom Harris Reed.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn imperfection, I can see beauty, so I like my belly,\u201d she said. \u201cThat\u2019s why I like to not wear a corset onstage. I just don\u2019t care.\u201d<\/p>\n
Back at the cocktail party, Bezos found himself near Katy Perry, who was entertaining a table.<\/p>\n
As they stood just feet apart, the pop star asked, \u201cWho\u2019s rich?\u201d and everyone pointed at Bezos, who smirked uncomfortably. But then his eyes glimmered: His wife was walking toward him. He greeted her by tugging her waist and giving her a kiss. He had been saved.<\/p>\n
Not too far away, the actor Dwayne Johnson was digging in his wife\u2019s purse for a mini bottle of tequila. (Like many celebrities, he has a liquor brand.) The couple both wore Thom Browne, his suit featuring embroidery on the back resembling a spine.<\/p>\n
\u201cI like my pecs and my glutes,\u201d he said, before he was interrupted by Shou Chew, TikTok\u2019s chief executive, who professed his admiration of the Rock. \u201cI\u2019m a really big fan!\u201d Chew said as he shook Johnson\u2019s hand.<\/p>\n
After Chew walked away, Johnson had an addendum: \u201cI don\u2019t like my toes, they are velociraptor toes.\u201d<\/p>\n
Nearby, the actress Sarah Paulson, who was wearing a Mati\u00e8res F\u00e9cales gown and a blindfold that resembled a dollar bill, laughed with Lena Dunham.<\/p>\n
When asked about her unusual accessory, Paulson said, \u201cI feel like when you\u2019re a citizen of the country right now, it\u2019s your responsibility to be as aware as you possibly can about all that\u2019s going on in the world.\u201d She added, \u201cThat just feels like my job as a citizen. But I\u2019m here, and I\u2019m happy to be here.\u201d<\/p>\n
It was hard to tell at first, but walking around dressed as a marble statue was Heidi Klum. Her look was inspired by the Veiled Vestal, a 19th-century sculpture by Raffaelle Monti. She planned the look for three months and it took her five hours to get ready, she said, adding that it was the best her body had felt at a Met Gala.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor once, my feet don\u2019t hurt,\u201d she said, wiggling her marble-like toes in flat sandals.<\/p>\n
What did Wintour think of the get-up?<\/p>\n
\u201cI asked her if she liked it \u2014 she said yes,\u201d Klum said. \u201cI was the most worried that she won\u2019t like it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Suddenly, trumpets blared, signaling it was time to head to the Temple of Dendur for dinner. On the short walk out of the court, Karlie Kloss introduced her husband, Joshua Kushner, to Matthieu Blazy, the artistic director of Chanel. While holding hands with Bezos, S\u00e1nchez Bezos grabbed a friend with her other hand and said, \u201cOh! You\u2019re with us,\u201d as they made their way to dinner.<\/p>\n
As the cocktail party wound down and guests moved to dinner, Beyonc\u00e9, Blue Ivy and Jay-Z were just getting in.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"At this year\u2019s Met Gala, some famous public figures were hidden behind masks, blindfolds, headpieces and makeup that…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":65831,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[161],"tags":[33078,8773,38598,23315,734,28285,38596,38597,7541,38599,38600],"class_list":{"0":"post-65830","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-jeff-bezos","8":"tag-beyonce","9":"tag-bezos","10":"tag-chloe","11":"tag-costume-institute","12":"tag-jeff-bezos","13":"tag-jeffrey-p","14":"tag-knowles","15":"tag-malle","16":"tag-met-gala","17":"tag-nicks","18":"tag-stevie"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@people\/116554774779035545","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65830","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=65830"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65830\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/65831"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=65830"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=65830"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=65830"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
