The 2023 Met Gala is just a few days away, so without further ado, here are Digi's predictions for how guests might interpret this year’s theme, Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty…
- OTT tweed — think tweed ballgowns and, yes, lots of tweed suits for the men with little imagination
- Pearls — think long, layered, and ‘20s-eque
- C both sides like Chanel — think logomania but luxe
- Karl kosplay — think powdered hair, sunglasses and fingerless gloves
- Protest — think sartorial jabs at Chanel and Lagerfeld’s exclusionary history
- Random French vibes — think the algorithm’s version of French culture
- “French girl” hair — think the tousle a la Camille Rowe
- Bobs — think Amelie x Coco herself
- Bows — think the bows that took over fashion week and TikTok (we’re looking at u Sandy Liang) but bigger and bolder
- Steak frites — think meat and potatoes, but French
- Timothée Chalamet speaking French — no explanation needed
