Senior prom on steroids?

Seriously though
What is the Met gala?
The Met ball, or Met gala, is the fashion world equivalent of the Oscars. It’s an evening when designers, models, and Hollywood stars convene in the year’s most over-the-top looks to celebrate and fundraise at a new exhibit from the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute. Typically, everyone dresses to the theme, and according to the feel, of the exhibit; past themes have included camp, religion, punk, and more.

When and where is it?
The 2021 Met gala will be held as an intimate gala on September 13, at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.

What’s this year’s theme?
The 2021 Met gala is focused on celebrating all things American fashion. Andrew Bolton, the Wendy Yu Curator in Charge of the Costume Institute, felt it was time to reexamine American identity and fashion, especially as it has changed over the last several years due to both political and social justice movements. “I’ve been really impressed by American designers’ responses to the social and political climate, particularly around issues of body inclusivity and gender fluidity, and I’m just finding their work very, very self-reflective,” he told Vogue. “I really do believe that American fashion is undergoing a renaissance. I think young designers in particular are at the vanguard of discussions about diversity and inclusion, as well as sustainability and transparency, much more so than their European counterparts, maybe with the exception of the English designers.”

This has to be a Caption This. I’ll start:

Well, no wonder she is depressed.

Maria and Venus look like goddesses. I appreciate the avant-garde-ness of Serena's shag rug, but it's wearing her, at least in this angle. It looks better from the front. She's wearing a white-lace bodysuit with pink stars underneath it. I also don't love this particular ombre - feels a little cheap now that ombre is a mass-market trend. But I like the oomph. It's the Met Gala, go big!

This, from a person who says she doesn't like and can't handle all the attention she gets.
Un-huh...

You make your bed, you lie in it, lady.

Raducanu wore Chanel. Looks incredible, if someone can find a photo to post. I can't very easily on this computer.

I can do without all the fancy fashion stuff - jeans and a t-shirt is much more my style.

Is it just me, or does anyone else think that Emma's face quite resembles Angelina Jolie?

Leylah wore a much simpler dress but looks good, too. Looks her age, which I appreciate. Emma looks 7, 8 years older.

One for the ages. Should we Caption This?

Felix, license to kill! Wonder who is behind these tennis stars at the Met... not the Williams sisters and Maria and Osaka, that's obvious. But I wonder if it's the management agencies making it happen, WTA/ATP marketing, or if Vogue is inviting them or what. I wonder if some players were invited and declined
