The 5 best archival looks from the Met Gala 2024 It was definitely the night of great 90s couture.
The Met Gala 2024 was, as usual, a small lesson in both recent and past fashion history. Even if this year the guests were relatively cautious with their looks, dominated everywhere by floral decorations, even those who did not fully adhere to the theme of the evening The Garden of Time, inspired by a Ballard story, had the excellent idea of associating themselves with the theme of the exhibition that opened yesterday, namely that of sleeping beauties, couture dresses that, preserved from time and the elements, manage to find life through technology. And among the various looks from the latest Margiela collection, the various references to the repertoire of the great Alexander McQueen, it can be said that the great couture of the '90s and especially the (relatively) tumultuous Haute Couture of Givenchy, among the grandiose looks of Galliano and those of McQueen himself.
Here are the top 5 archive looks from the Met Gala 2024
1. Kendall Jenner in Givenchy FW99 & SS97 Haute Couture
Zendaya was co-host last night and went all in with her looks. Her "godfather", in addition to the omnipresent Law Roach, was John Galliano who not only signed the opening look which was made by Maison Margiela but replicated a dress from Dior's Haute Couture by Galliano himself, but also created during his time at Givenchy the huge black dress worn for the second outing. In this case, Zendaya and Law Roach ideally reunited Galliano and McQueen by adding to the look one of the Philip Treacy hats created for McQueen's SS07 collection, Sarabande, which is one of the great masterpieces of the late British designer.
