I don’t generally care about the Met Gala, but my jaw dropped when I saw this photo.

Can you imagine walking around looking like this?!

Plain? Anok Yai?

And Meghan Markle not beautiful?

Fucking hell, I’m glad you can’t see me Grin

I don't think Anok was wearing "a very interesting Met Gala outfit. "
I think she looked like a child dressing up for Halloween.

Of the 2 I think Naomi got it right so yea I think Naomi was wearing a interesting outfit. and Anok not so much. I preferred Rita Oras outfit to Anoks if you are looking for more "alternative"

But again. Like I said in my first post Anok is not my kind of beautiful. Nor do I think Meghan Markle is beautiful. Both attractive but not my type of beautiful.

Edited to clarify whom I was talking off

I think you may have misread my comment again.

And, I’m hopefully misreading your tone, but you’re coming across as oddly combative for a thread about gorgeous women and fun outfits.

Thank you for your opinion!

Seriously? I mean Megan is attractive but she’s hardly beautiful,it would be a rare person who thought that.

I think Meghan is beautiful and so does my DH.

lavenderlou · 07/05/2024 18:06

Beauty is definitely in the eye of the beholder. Personally I find more sculpted faces to look more "beautiful" and rounded faces like Zendaya more "pretty". They are all quite a few rungs above me either way!

Models are thin. This is not news.

Why is her hair ‘probably glued on’, pray tell?

She looks otherworldly, like a lot of proper supermodels (not just ordinary models) they have physiques and facial features that transcend typical celebrity attractiveness/beauty which let’s face it is ten a penny.

Precisely, this.

Thank you for your opinion!

No I didn't misread your comment. I am not being combative.

I have a different opinion to yours and it means we won't see things in a similar way. Your title btw doesn't suggest you are looking for a chat about the met gala. It's focused on Anok. Whom I dont think of as beautiful but you do.

If you would like to know whom I thought had some great met gala outfits I'd go with Lana Del Ray and Dan Levy.

People I felt got it wrong
Anok Yai , Doja Cat and Chris Hemsworth. (though Its more I think he went a bit safe than wrong)

MarzipanGenius · 07/05/2024 18:14

Peachoolongtea · 07/05/2024 17:56

No..Beautiful yes but not unbelievably stunning to me.

iman, Miranda Kerr, adriana Lima, Cara delevingne, Gemma ward, selita ebanks, tyra banks in their prime all had that ‘how can she be so perfect’ effect on me. Anok Yai doesn’t give me that.

Edited

That’s surprising! As I think all those women are stunning, as well, so I’d have thought we had the same taste.

Ah, well. 😊

Every one has a different opinion on what is beautiful or not. I do think Anok is beautiful but definitely don't think Angelina Jolie is.

I thought Kaley Cuoco was pretty when she was younger in Big Bang Theory but now I think she looks very ordinary, even plain

PieFaces · 07/05/2024 18:16

Beautiful yes.

You responded to a comment in which I said Naomi looked amazing with ‘well, I think Naomi looks amazing’. You then answered about Anok’s look when I’d asked about Naomi’s. If that’s not misreading, not sure what it was.

I’m fine with people having different opinions. Several people have, and it’s all been perfectly cordial. If you don’t think you’ve been combative, then I suppose we’ll have to agree to disagree.

Wow. "I" am combative and you dissect my posts into how you want them written?

Some of us have different writing styles and perhaps dyslexia. (I have both)

DazedNotConfused1 · 07/05/2024 18:29

yeah she is attractive but I see women who look like her all the time! There are thousands if not millions of beautiful women who would look just as good or better given the chance

PinkiOcelot · 07/05/2024 18:37

I can’t see it at all. I think that outfit is awful as well. Might just be the way she’s standing but it looks odd.

ginoclocksomewhere · 07/05/2024 18:40

Yes, she is stunning! She's one of my faves at the Met Gala each year.

This is my fave

Crazycrazylady · 07/05/2024 18:46

I'm not a fan of Meghan but she is absolutely stunningly beautiful. I would argue that that even her detractors wouldn't deny that.

mactire · 07/05/2024 18:48

Stunning woman but man, I don’t like that the outfit is a catsuit. The dress I was picturing based on the original photo would have been beautiful!

I’ll also join the “Meghan Markle is beautiful” club.

Lampzade · 07/05/2024 18:50

I think that she is striking rather than beautiful.
I think that Kaley Cuoco has always been girl next door pretty. However, she strikes me as the type of person who would be prettier in real life
Meghan Markle is very naturally pretty.

WoshPank · 07/05/2024 19:01

She's got a lovely face. I don't care for the catsuit though!

malificent7 · 07/05/2024 19:09

Everyone has something beaitiful but she is next level stunning as is Megan.
Anok reminds me of that lady who presents Glow up nowadays...forgot her name...unearthly beauty if that's what u mean by alien.

ClipClopperDontStopper · 07/05/2024 19:23

I think Zendaya is pretty but really can't see what people are talking about when they call her the most beautiful woman in the world.

I love that beauty is so subjective.

Where do you live that you see people that look like her ‘all the time’? Where there are millions of women who look like top models?

Is this like that thing where even portly out of shape men think they could take a game of tennis off Serena Williams?
