Lights, camera, action!<\/p>\n
The flash of the camera blinds us as we enter the swarm of vicious paparazzi battling it out for the best photo of the night\u2019s brightest star. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, fashion\u2019s biggest night is almost here. The Met Gala is fast approaching, and with it the anticipation of which celebrities will be in attendance \u2014 not to mention what these esteemed guests will be wearing. Anna Wintour with her bob and black sunnies paces the never-ending halls of Vogue headquarters as she menacingly decides the fate of fashion royalty for an entire calendar year. Who will sit where? What will the theme be? So much is at stake, and we all sit like idle children waiting.<\/p>\n
The Met Gala is an endless cycle that captures the attention of fashion lovers everywhere. Sure, the Willy Chavarria Fall 2025 collection at Paris Fashion Week was jaw-dropping, but only for the industry hopefuls. The first Monday in May marks a time when high-fashion and editorial displays are put on the main stage and everybody<\/em> can weigh in on the highs, lows, successes and failures of the night. I myself have spent many a Gala sitting at the lunch table with my high school friends in our five-dollar thrifted tank tops discussing the huge impact Zendaya\u2019s<\/a> 2017 Dolce & Gabanna look had on us. The Met Gala feels like a time when even normal folks like us can get a glimpse into the Capitol\u2019s<\/a> closet, and that\u2019s part of what makes the night so exciting.<\/p>\n That being said, who better to discuss the history of Met Galas past than two titans of fashion on campus? I present to you, then, the collab of the century: SHEI Magazine\u2019s features team and the Michigan Daily\u2019s very own Style beat writers. I\u2019ll wait for the deafening applause that is sure to follow. You might have seen us walking into the Stanford Lipsey Student Publications Building dressed to the nines in baggy jeans, Onitsuka Tigers and a full head of luscious ginger hair (I\u2019m looking at you, Cece Dore<\/a>). There is no one more qualified to bring you a Met Gala analysis than us, and what better time than now with the 2025 Met Gala, \u201cSuperfine: Tailoring Black Style,\u201d debuting in just a few days?<\/p>\n
