The 2023 Met Gala was a celebration of the life and work of legendary fashion designer, Karl Lagerfeld. The theme for the evening was “Karl Lagerfeld: A line of beauty,” and it was a fitting tribute to one of the most iconic and influential designers of our time.
The event was held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute in New York City, and it was attended by some of the biggest names in fashion, music, and entertainment. Celebrities and fashion insiders donned their finest Lagerfeld-inspired outfits, paying homage to the late designer’s signature style.
One of the most impressive looks of the night was worn by supermodel, Gisele Bundchen, who wore a stunning white silk tulle Chanel dress from the Chanel Haute Couture Spring-Summer 2007 collection. She paired her dress with Chanel shoes and a bag and topped off the look with 18K white gold, diamond, and cultured pearl earrings. This look was also the bridal look in Karl Lagerfeld’s spring 2007 Chanel couture show.
But it wasn’t just the fashion on display that paid tribute to Lagerfeld’s legacy. The event also featured a special exhibition showcasing some of Lagerfeld’s most iconic designs and artwork from throughout his career.
The exhibition highlighted Lagerfeld’s incredible talent and creative vision, showcasing the breadth and depth of his influence on the fashion world. From his early days at Balmain to his long tenure at Chanel, Lagerfeld was a designer who pushed boundaries and redefined what it meant to be fashionable.
