For over 30 years,
fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld
created iconic luxury fashion,
leaving an indelible mark on
the industry. And this year
he was the actual theme of the Met Gala.
So we're joined this morning
by fashion stylist Shay Strager
for a hit or miss Met Gala recap.
Yes, Shay is bad. Thank you ladies.
I love being here with you. I truly do.
I love talking fashion with you.
OK, She was giving us all
the scoop about the guy.
I don't know enough about it,
but you had a really good
question before the show.
Well, I was just asking
you. I was saying, you know,
a lot of people were saying Karl
Lagerfeld, he was the inspiration.
Do we celebrate his actual works
or are we supposed to dress?
Literally like Karl Laga phone.
That is such a great question.
For those at home who don't
understand the Met Gala,
which is the Super Bowl of fashion,
it celebrates the newest exhibition
at the Metropolitan Museum,
which is Karl Lagerfeld, a line of beauty.
OK, so the dress code for last night's gala,
which was, you know, it's been a
production of Anna Wit Tour and Vogue.
For decades right now, she curates.
She curates this evening.
And the dress code was an ode to Carl.
So this was you were supposed to work
with a fashion designer who invited you,
who you're sitting at their table.
And it was supposed to be a collaboration
that was an homage of Carl Lagerfeld.
Let's get you.
We have a lot too.
And we're going to do Happy
Carl or not So Happy Carl.
What
are we saying about that?
So that we just say
let's be happy, let's be happy with Dua
Lipa who was one of the cohosts last
night of the event and she is wearing
an iconic Chanel dress that was first
worn by Claudia Schiffer on the runway.
So the exact same dress is being shown
again right here and it incorporates all
the things we love. Carl for the tweed,
the braided rope, the fringe.
Like when you look at the details
on this dress, I mean first of all,
can you miss the Tiffany's 120 carat?
Diamond around her now. Wait, what?
I'm not step back. I don't see it.
Step back. Yes.
And then if you they're going to
show the hemline because I wanted
you to see this fringe which is just
so iconic of all things Chanel.
This is just a a piece of art.
You know what it is? Absolutely.
I'm saying here we go.
How could you say no? How could you say no?
OK, let's speed it up because
we we don't have a few minutes.
OK. Next up. OK.
So this is a great example
of a collaboration.
So this is Daisy Edgar Jones
and she worked with.
Gucci to create something.
It went it was an in honor of Chanel and
all of Carl's work like the iconic bow.
You know this bow was so Chanel,
but this is absolutely.
A Gucci twist on it.
You know this is a two piece outfit.
This is Gucci.
But it does show so much respect
and it takes inspiration.
For what?
Carl's work.
I think it's stunning
and beautiful and also a piece of art.
She must have had that designed
completely on her stitched
because she forgot to do her hair.
I don't know why. Oh my. The hair.
The dress is so stunning.
If she wasn't trying to take away from it,
I don't know. OK. Wow. Good call.
Care though. Shake. OK, now. Yes.
Let's talk about. Not special.
This is Lizzo looking better than I think
She's ever looked on any red carpet ever.
And she is in Chanel now.
What's important about this look to me
is that Linda Evangelista wore this
first for Chanel and it was recreated.
For Liz. Oh, look how magnificent Study.
She looks Studying and beautiful on her.
Absolutely.
She still looks like her,
like the best version of her
in Chanel and Carol.
What about her hair?
We
got. I'm not going to
say a thing about Liz.
Oh, you're special. I love you.
And I love those gloves.
Me too. And she looks top notch. Top notch.
Pearl Black representing so well.
I love it. Yes. OK.
OK, Now let's talk about Michaela Cohen.
Now, she was. This was in collaboration,
and I'm going to give two cheers for her.
Or stylist Georgia.
And you know, any stylist that's
in part of this collaboration,
you know, it's my job.
I do it for a living.
You are really the go between between the
celebrity and the designer and if anything,
you're working with the designer.
More than this love is because
they don't have the time.
They're coming in for fitting,
but you're really doing the handholding.
This Chaparelli piece was like second skin,
which was a huge trend last night,
but let me just almost 4000
hours it took to be this dress.
It has all the iconic Chanel,
but it is Chaparral and it is, it is,
this is, this is what designers do best.
I mean, I can't, I can't even believe it.
It's like because I'm sure there might be
a not so happy Carl coming up, is there?
I don't know.
So far they're all winners, really.
How much did that weigh,
do you think it must have weighed a time?
I mean, I can't imagine it was 130,000 beads.
That's what I knew and I couldn't
I couldn't remember how many
crystals but it was a lot now.
OK OK She can I ask you quickly
about her shoes. I don't know if you
probably can't see it on the screen but are
those footprint are those what kind of shoes.
So it's a loose sight.
So you could see her kids.
Are they made to mold her feet.
Yeah. So you're seeing her foot
and it's it's like that whole see
through trend goes top to bottom.
OK could lead you quickly
our our man in the group.
Yes. We have to show Usher.
I mean he's a hometown favorite.
But I have to say if you
watched last night so many.
One of the men went so over the top,
so over the top.
Usher looked amazing.
He he was wearing Bianca Sanders,
who was his his date for the evening.
But of course he kicked it off
in true Usher fashion with the
Christian La Bhutan White.
Loafers.
Absolutely stunning. Handsome. Oh
my gosh. I thought he represented so well.
Of course we love all of your picks.
And we have maybe time for one final one.
OK. All right.
Janelle Monáe. She said it.
I'm making this an experience.
So this is what she wore.
She's wearing Tom Brown,
who's known for his suiting.
She took this off.
It was a see through dress underneath
and she lifted it up and flashed
her sparkle panties to everybody.
I mean, she made it.
Let's talk Fashion is an experience.
I go
at it so much.
I mean, but this is about have fun.
Yes, right. Have fun with it,
Have fun with it. And she does.
And I don't know if you've
followed her career.
She is dressed in black and white for
almost every award show she's ever been on.
So she stayed with her own theme.
Yes, she did.
And the theme of the night she hurt
herself. Yes. And she has a pet,
which a lot of people Jared Leto
dressed up as his cat. So there
were a few people like that. Yes.
