The Lion Proud Guard Lover Gifts Classic T-Shirt

When the Met Gala makes its return The Lion Proud Guard Lover Gifts Classic T-Shirt .To 5th Avenue the first Monday in May, expect a great deal of glitz and turn-of-the-century glamour. The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute announced it will stage “In America: An Anthology of Fashion” as the second installment of September 2021’s Met Gala “In America: A Lexicon of Fashion.” But New York Times’ Chief Fashion Critic Vanessa Friedman revealed earlier this week that this year’s theme could perhaps be interchangeably referred to as “Gilded Glamour.” It seems two words have never inspired such speculation as visions of Gilded Age attire have left the internet divided between literal interpretations of the era’s patina of opulence and more historic references.

It held a striking resemblance to today’s Met Gala with grand surroundings, a socialite-centric crowd and costumes by coveted designers demanding attention. While Alva posed with live doves dressed as a Venetian princess, family member Alice Vanderbilt wore a golden “Electric Light” ensemble embroidered with lightning bolt and starburst motifs. Designed by the “father of haute couture,” Paris-based Charles Frederick Worth, Alice’s costume conveyed a deeper meaning. Accessorised with a battery powered torch in hand, her getup screamed wealth, privilege and status at a time when few households had access to Thomas Edison’s light bulb invention.
