Amanda Seyfried exuded timeless elegance at the 2023 Met Gala as she channeled the sexy glamour of the 1920s. The star of “The Dropout” graced the red carpet in a stunning custom-made nude dress by Oscar de la Renta. The sheer minidress, featuring a corset bodice, was adorned with delicate golden strands that cascaded from her neck to her thighs.
To complement the dress, Seyfried opted for a monochrome look, accessorizing with layered gold necklaces, golden heeled sandals from Stuart Weitzman, and gold hoop earrings and rings. Her finishing touches included a bold curly hairstyle and a shimmering burgundy smoky eye, accentuated by a matching bold raspberry lip.
The 2023 Met Gala’s theme, “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty,” paid tribute to the late creative director of Chanel. The event aimed to showcase Lagerfeld’s profound influence on the world of fashion. The Costume Institute’s exhibition featured approximately 150 of Lagerfeld’s designs, along with some of his sketches, highlighting his complex creative process and collaborative relationships with his head seamstresses. Lagerfeld’s extensive body of work, which encompassed renowned fashion houses such as Balmain, Patou, Chloé, Fendi, Chanel, and his eponymous label, Karl Lagerfeld, was celebrated for its fluid lines and diversity.
The exhibition focused on Lagerfeld’s stylistic vocabulary and recurring aesthetic themes from the 1950s to his final collection in 2019. It shed light on the German-born designer’s unique working methodology, showcasing his remarkable contributions to the history of fashion.
The Met Gala not only celebrated the legacy of Karl Lagerfeld but also served as a fundraising event for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute, supporting its continued endeavors to preserve and showcase the art of fashion.
