Prepping for the Met Ball with Lily Aldridge - CR Fashion Book
There are two kinds of guests who attend the Met Ball: those who address the topic of the exhibit with their outfits, and those who completely ignore it. “We always like to have fun and do a nod to the theme,” said Lily Aldridge, who paid tribute to this year’s honoree, Rei Kawakubo, in a custom white Ralph Lauren gown paired with thigh high red Balenciaga boots. “The optic white and red are such classic Comme [des Garçons] colors. And I love how unexpected the striking boot feels underneath a beautiful gown,” she said while getting ready for the annual Costume Institute gala (it’s her seventh or eighth time attending—she lost track). - CR Fashion Book and Ungano-Agriodimas
