Not like her look? Sure. But this was a completely expected look, and it's not one that typically registers with Western audiences. It's very much in line with what she's presented professionally and an easy call for the Met Gala. Not sure what you guys were anticipating. The only thing I got wrong was the color palette of the look, the rest was as I thought it would be for her.

And I'd say it's more appropriate to call the Japanese influences in the dress and overall look to be influenced by Kabuki and Kimono styles. But there's also Haitian influences in the dress.

I think the look and even the hair styling is appropriate, I just think it's ugly. Which is on Louis Vuitton not Naomi.

Right. Totally appropriate, but like most at the Met Gala, not my taste. But hard to like the full palette of avant-garde designs. I try to just appreciate them like works of art, because they will never all be what I'd choose, actually very few will be and that's the Met Gala.
