    I think Elle follows the theme. If you read the Garden of Time there is the idea of the garden being “frozen in time” everytime the owners took out a flower to prevent the outsiders to come in. So actually the water fountain would be the shape of Elle’s dress plus the collection is called Sleeping Beauties: reawakening fashion and she was Sleeping Beauty with the birds helping her dress. For me she was the best dressed with Tyla

      I haven't read the short story but he keeps bringing up the crystal flowers so I thought the dress was supposed to reference those! obviously no flowers on it but it looks like it's made of crystal or glass. I believe Elle herself kept bringing up sleeping beauty being dressed by birds but I don't think that ever happens in either of the Disney adaptations so idk where she got that from

    Alia’s saree, just the silhouette itself, is the embodiment of fashion, preservation and time!
    Sarees have been worn by the masses since the Indus Valley Civilisation (2800 BC). It has held grace and fashion for over 4000 years.
    I don’t believe many other silhouettes have held that power. For example, a dress / gown has evolved vastly from 19th century to 20th century where they look VERY different when worn by the masses (in a mainstream manner). But not the saree. It still looks as is, holding both so much history and heritage. Incredible to think about.

      Probably because the lesser known ones have more of a say in what they get to wear. The bigger celebs are signed onto brands and probably can’t refuse an outfit their stylist agreed on, or the brand will push them to wear the outfit they already designed. Smaller celebs, even influencers were probably able to execute their own vision, which would be more in theme, instead of trying to market the brand

      @@user-tx7wu3rn4v Thank you - and I quite agree!!! The Big Names in the world of the arts - and especially anyone connected with Hollywood - can pretty much pick their designer, and because they’re so coveted as models for their fashions, people in the fashion world would cater to them.
      I think what was afoot at the Met Gala was that the fashion houses wouldn’t dream of using a Hollywood A-Lister for their more avante guard design ideas - and the Hollywood stars themselves are so accustomed to “being dressed” by others, they don’t get involved in the process. Perhaps it’s a case of, “They wouldn’t tell me how to act, so I shouldn’t tell them how to design,” kind-of-a-thing. Or maybe a combination of both of those things …and in the fog of mutual respect, the design gets lost….
      I must say, though, that the house of Balenciaga was represented at the Gala so often, I wondered where Valentino, Givenchy, Versace, Dolce & Gabbana and all the other usual suspects had gone. Had the fashion house bound and gagged other designers???🫦

The large amount of floral gemstones do the “crystal flowers” part and the “minty” color is the faded part (as sarees are usually popular in bold colors). The story is also about dying aristocracy; this is a fusion outfit of Indian and European culture with her hair, headpiece, makeup and bow on her back referencing the Countess.

    elle SLAYED THIS MET
    i love that she paid homage to the sleeping beauties theme, but in a different way (frozen in time, fragile like glass, quite literally played aurora in maleficent). also, she tied in time and garden - frozen in time with the glass/frozen water look (reminded me of fountains found in gardens during the winter when the water would freeze up). i LOVE the bird detail because it ties both the sleeping beauty and time/garden theme like how you mentioned. she has been a HUGE fashion fan for years - when she was younger, she would scrap book runway looks from different brands and collections and would memorize the names of the models (also in her vogue interview with emma, she pronounced balmain correctly) - like if there was anyone who actually cared about the met gala and being on theme, it would be elle

    For KeKe Palmer you did not mention that the dress is also alluding to an Egyptian Mummy, the art of mummification literally highlights preservation of time. Cuz the process is meant for preserving a body after death through removing moisture and using chemicals or natural preservatives to dry out the flesh and organs. with the intended goal to create a dried form that won't decay easily. Quite literally garden of time theme especially if you consider Keke Palmer a Black Beauty and Queen referenced in Gold. Just in case you missed it.

    When I saw the Demi Moore dress I was really shocked (in a good way). I'm not into fashion but your videos are a fun watch. I haven't seen a dress quite like this before and I loved the shapes and the high contrast, it was really interesting.
    Anyway, it immediately struck me that she's the Queen of Hearts from Alice in Wonderland where Alice not only lived in a different time from us but goes to world so strange that it's like a different time. I think that's a neat reference to a garden of time. Back to the dress - the hips form the heart, the cape thing forms a spade with her head being the stem of the spade, the cape thing along with her hips form the club with her legs being the stem, and the fringe on the cape is full of diamonds.
    What surprised me more is that you didn't see all of those shapes! Is it my imagination? Am I reading too much into it? I didn't try very hard though, I just looked and saw them immediately.
    I think it's a really clever and very striking dress.

    Gwendoline gives me Red Queen from the Alice in Wonderland vibes, which I know is not directly on theme, but there are a heavy presence of garden and time being ticking away in the story! Barry Keoghan and Sabrina Carpenter were also giving Mad Hatter and Alice when together. And dare I say Demi Moore also gave Red Queen and her rose garden dreams! Might just be the big rose on her dress, but the pointy feathers really brought it home for me! (Felt like the styling of a deck of cards, like the Queen's Guards in the animated film) Anywaysss!

      @sophieniegsch3817 2 месяца назад +3

      I was thinking the same about the clock face (clock hands as well as reminiscent of hour markings on a clock face). Moreover - based on what I’ve garnered about the short story - the spikes also evoke the imagery of fence spikes and the circular structure enveloping the rose/flowers play to the fenced-in-ness of the couple as the horde attacks/encroaches on them. Simultaneously protecting themselves in a limited space of ‘protection’ (fence) whilst the enveloping of the spikes/clock hands signify the flower literally surrounded. The spikes could also imply arrow heads (leaning more heavily into the ‘attack’ of the horde) being braced by the flower (pushing back the time of arrival further), like all the arrows shot at a castle or enclave, now stuck in the walls sticking out as a grim reminder of what the flower of time can no longer push to escape. The garden is surrounded, and through its used up resources, entirely besieged. The flower is surrounded; and not simply by the walls of the garden (self fenced-in) but adorned with narrative depiction of the onslaught of the horde. The couple/garden/ flower will perish (inescapably surrounded by the circle), backed into a corner of its own doing (hands of clock/ time implication in the spikes- its own actions of time pushing brought about the inevitability of demise. Time (use/abuse) leaves it (self) fenced in and now is marked by inextricable finitude and limitation, whereby the arrow symbolises (like a hundred arrows stuck in the back of an animal) demise. Sorry for repetition, this look made sooo much sense to me for the theme, on so many interrelated layers (in relation to the short story). Absolutely adore it (visually stunning and forward thinking too, in my fashion uneducated opinion). Maybe not forward thinking but it had so damn much to say and I think it really did that all with such grace and simplicity.

    Cristóbal Balenciaga was an absolute genius. Not only was he an incredible and innovative designer, but he learned to sew from his mother as a child (she was a seamstress) and was apprenticed to a tailor at the age of 12. As Chanel said, “Only he is capable of cutting material, assembling a creation and sewing it by hand. The others are simply fashion designers.”
    Everyone who is upset about a poorly-conceived fashion shoot from several years ago needs to leave the memory of Balenciaga himself out of it. I get very heated about this lol. His manipulation of grain, the fabric choice, his development of gazar…just incredible. I did a sewing workshop at the Balenciaga Museum last summer and it was one of the greatest experiences ever, I learned so much!
