I posted on AIBU last year so am doing the same:
https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/5329008-to-ask-if-youll-be-watching-the-met-gala-2025-tonight

Why they dont do it on a sunday night, ive no idea 🙄🙄

Or even a Saturday?!

Anyway - will anyone stay up to watch the red carpet? They dont film the actual gala which is weird but anyway

This year's dress code is: Fashion is Art and the theme is: Costume Art

Celebs are boycotting because Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez are going. I mean, what is the point, none of you are good people anyway 😫

Hoping to see Kim K, Rihanna, Beyonce, Law Roach (i dont think Zendaya is going)

Thoughts?

I love Cara Delevigne’s Ralph Lauren gown.

I have to agree with this. I actually thinks she's the best dressed out of all of them.

She looked absolutely amazing at Harry and megs wedding too, dressed in a suit

Is everybody a ‘Chair’ of some kind?

Co-chairs, honorary co-chairs, chairs of the Gala, Chairs of host committee …

And they all look nuts.

Well I will but only because I am in NY visiting my son our invites were lost in the post I assume!

Wauwinet · 05/05/2026 02:47

Well usually photos get auto approved but I think the thread where women keep posting photos of their breasts to show off abscesses has triggered manual approval of all pictures. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Hopefully all the ones on this thread will appear in the morning.

Isha ambani absolutely killed it with the jewellery (although I think her family have an insane private collection of jewels)
Katy Perry is interesting, not sure what I think 🤔

JamMakingWannaBe · 04/05/2026 23:49

She went booby but the dress is tailored well and has some nice detailing. But as she is sponsoring the event I thought she'd go for something much more. Night is still young, waiting for Beyonce and Rihanna to show now

Custom schiaparelli - she needed to do more imo

I mean Lauren Sanchez looked rather nice and quite classy - that’s not what we want at the Met Gala! We want DRAMA!

True

Although I understand Jeff, I too would divorce my wife and give her half to be with Lauren, sorry

I think that as an event it’s lost it’s USP - it feels like it could just be the dress parade at the Oscars, there’s no real fashion innovation or a strong sense of theme anymore, it’s just rich famous women in long, designer dresses…. all a bit meh

I dunno what they can do to improve things though, it has lost its usp
