THE MET GALA 2014: CHARLES JAMES

THE MET GALA 2014

The Met Gala, formerly known as the Costume Institute Gala and also known as the Met Ball, is an annual fundraising gala for the benefit of the Institute’s annual fashion exhibit. It is widely regarded as one of the most exclusive social events in New York and one of the biggest fundraising nights of the city.

This year, Anna Wintour (who happens to be the Vogue editor-in-chief and chair of the event since 1995) alongside her Vogue staffers came up with the ‘CHARLES JAMES: BEYOND FASHION’ theme. If you weren’t aware, Charles James was a British designer known as ‘America’s first Couturier’. He is widely recognised for his highly structured aesthetics and acknowledged to be a master of cutting.

With that said, here are my favourite looks from the prolific event that took place on the 05 May 2014.
Let me know what your favourite looks are and I’ll holla at yal in my next post.
