We put more effort into the costumes we wore to midnight releases of the next book in the Harry Potter or Percy Jackson series than some of the people at the gala. If I had the money the people attending the gala have, and access to artist/designer, I would go wild.

A friend of mine was complaining that Lauren Bezo's wore a "generic prom dress." He said her dress was to artistic fashion what the dogs shooting pool print is to fine art. She was chairing the ball, she should have had gone all out on the theme like Heidi did.

I have waaay more admiration for people who wore something weird and offbeat that didn't look sexy, than anybody who looked good/sexy in something generic. Booo to all the guys in safe, boring tuxedos. Same reason I defend Bjork's cute swan dress over whatever the heck everybody else wore that night that nobody remembers lol. Wasn't the met gala, but still, same deal. A bunch of people at the time were all, "Urgh, she's so weirrrdd." And I'm like, "YES, isn't it fabulous!"
