Met Gala

An event that was recently all over the news was the 2018 Met Gala. I saw numerous videos about it on Instagram, Snapchat, and on TV. This year, the gala was Catholic themed, which inspired amazing outfits that many fans loved. This event was an opportunity for celebrities to make a fashion statement that everyone would remember. Many of the outfits were designer which gave publicity to some huge fashion brands. These companies at the Met Gala gained publicity because they were mentioned in the news and tagged in social media posts from the celebrities that chose to advertise for the designer brands. The most popular brands at the Gala were Versace (which was tagged in many celebrity photos such as Katy Perry and Blake Lively), closely followed by Gucci, Tommy Hiliger, Balmain, Chanael, Prada, and many other companies.

At the Gala, all of the costumes were amazing however, a few really stood out, dominating all the news on social media. One of the best costumes was worn by Lana del Rey who coordinated her outfit with Jared Leto. They were both dressed as ethereal figures and their clothes were designed by Gucci. Lana del Rey's costume was great but what put her outfit over the top were her accessories. There was a large three-dimensional heart along with a dramatic head piece that looked like wings. Another great outfit was worn by Katy Perry who had a golden dress and boots along with gigantic white feather wings attached to her back. Katy Perry was one of the celebrities I saw all over social media and her outfit was made by Versace.

This event is one of the biggest opportunities for celebrities to show off how popular they are and designer brands to get publicity. Brands that appear in the Met Gala know that everyone will be talking about the event and if they create an amazing outfit, then the company will get even more advertisement. The brands and celebrities are mutually beneficial because while the celebrity advertises for the brand, the brand makes the celebrity seem more important. This is why the Met Gala is such an important Social Event for anyone trying to gain publicity.
