Now that I've recovered...

Karl Lagerfeld? A racist, fatphobic, piece of shit. He headed for Coco Chanel who was a Nazi sympathizer rich bitch coverup piece of shit, and was lauded by Anna Wintour, another racist piece of shit. They revitalized every company they worked for, invented the cardigan, and transformed fashion media respectively.

Weirdly enough, people, yes even artists, are fucking problematic.

Do not come at me with the Met Gala being an extravagant eat the rich situation. This silly party funds the Costume Institute, regular non-rich people getting to do historical work in an area that is still to this day considered "women's stuff" and of no value. It is the only part of the Met that must entirely fund itself, and has only not only survived, but under Wintour, thrived.

Things I'm never going to say no to

I am so very tired of people who are otherwise thoughtful and insightful deciding that because the Met Gala is photographed so much and has celebrities that they can describe it has pointless.

I also am so very tired of Met Gala themes being a mess. This year was a poor choice but that is nothing new, they did "House of Chanel" in 2005.

The Parisian scene has always has their issues. I vaguely miss when the partisans sorted it out on their own.

But my designer, who you can't have, walked away from Chanel because of Karl. So I'm happy to send along your requests. Also, that fucker only ate steamed apples for breakfast. What a weirdo.

When I learned that the CIA was catching up to European houses to intel and espionage at best, I spent time taking it seriously.

Ugh, his entire year where he ate 800 calories a day and lost 90 pounds and he thinks this was a good thing, ew.

We did get to see Lizzo play flute with Sir James Galway. That was nice.

[xp_blackcat]

An actual fucking delight, agreed

I did also enjoy seeing people and things he'd hate (men, curvy women, wearing the color pink) looking fantastic. Ooh, and Jeremy Pope with the "Karl Who?" bag. That was a highlight of the fashion for me.

Thick men, wearing the color pink!! Harvey Guillen looked superb!

Finally something we 100% agree on.

I’m available for drinking and strident loud agreements with waving arms, just saying.
