Met Gala: Some kind of pukey bridal show?

I’ve been rather swamped with work and life and stuff, but today, I found I had the time to click around to see what people wore to the Met Gala. Kind of liked a couple things, but I’m a bit baffled by what I can only describe as Bridal Chic trend sweeping the red carpet:

Country Bride, Sexy Bride, Rave Bride, Prom Bride, and Amish Bride: Together at last.

See what I mean? All that white fabric.  Sure. There were black dresses and blue dresses and red dresses. But so damned much white…

Very subtle, Jessica.

It was just odd. It’s not like this is one of those Black & White balls or some tacky P. Diddy affair.

And yet, it looks like half of Hollywood woke and thought, “I’ve made it through the wilderness. Somehow I’ve made it through…being invited to this event makes me feel like a virgin. Dressing for the very first time. Yes! Bridal/virginal white it is!”

Then again, perhaps there was some wishful thinking at work…

Either way, if these heifers think they’re going to make white the new black, I’m first going to call the NAACP, then I’m calling BS on the whole trend. Unless they come up with a way to keep white dresses white and make them look totally non-bridey, this is a total failure. Just looking at these women makes me want to get drunk and hit on someone totally inappropriate while dancing to “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun.” And that ain’t a good place to be, my friends.

So viva LBD!!! Fight the Power!

And with that, I leave you with…well, I…there are no words…
