Anne Hathaway in tweed & pearl Versace at the Met Gala: stunning?

One of my favorite looks of this year’s Met Gala was Anne Hathaway. Donatella Versace customized the look for Anne, and they walked the carpet together. This is a variation of the infamous Versace “safety pin” dress from the 1990s, but Donatella redid it with a Karl Lagerfeld-theme, in a pale tweed (rather than the leather of the original dress) and in addition to the safety pins, the dress was “held together” with pearl clasps. It is such an amazing interpretation of the Lagerfeld aesthetic. Anne really ate this. And yes, that’s stupid Jared Leto in a Choupette costume.

I was surprised by how many women wore slipdresses or very simple lingerie-inspired looks from the 1990s. Irina Shayk did that – I don’t have the ID on this, but it’s just… very basic. Her makeup isn’t even notable.

Kate Moss wore Fendi, as did her daughter Lila. Kate knew Karl Lagerfeld for decades, I’m kind of surprised that she didn’t do more? She’s Kate Moss, for goodness sake. She just threw on a Fendi slipdress.

Precious Lee also wore Fendi. It’s fine.
