Redefining the fashion aesthetic

This year’s theme was avant-garde, inspired by fashion’s most conceptual designer, Rei Kawakubo of Comme des Garçons, so some truly out-there looks were to be expected. And with a theme like that, Hollywood went all out.
Kawakubo is the first living designer since Yves Saint Laurent in 1983 to be the sole subject of the Met's blockbuster fashion exhibit. There were larger, billowing skirts than we've ever seen in years past, and while red is always a popular colour on the red carpet, this year's Gala saw the colour come out in full swing.
