## Carey Mulligan in Valentino

Would this be more glamorous without the visible boob cups? To me, yes. Otherwise, I am SO tickled to see her in a huge dress with a loud hue.

I love when a photographer is stuck having to tilt the camera to get the whole dress in frame (and still can't quite do it).

## Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz, Valentino

This is also quite good. I keep forgetting these two are engaged (and I read somewhere that he has a LOT of tattoos dedicated to her?!? Did no one learn from WINO FOREVER?).

## Lourdes Leon in Moschino

It's Lourdes's turn to wear the Moschino, I guess. Lourdes was predictable here because she was on the September issue of Vogue, but the lack of Madonna is interesting to me, since we know she's in New York from the VMAs. Do we think Madonna ceded the invitation, or maybe isn't vaccinated? Maybe she, too, [heard about Nicki Minaj's cousin's balls](https://twitter.com/NICKIMINAJ/status/1437532566945341441?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) (which sounds to me SO MUCH like an STD that he did not want to admit to???). ANYWAY. This gown happened and it might technically count as a pattern but too bad, and somehow the finished product is less than the sum of the workmanship.

Okay.

## Kate Hudson in Michael Kors

I guess to a lot of people, the lexicon of American fashion involves a big stole, often one that is furry. (This is probably a companion piece to Camila Cabello's Kors.)

I think the eye shadow was a mistake.

Hmm. Unexpected from the Mulleavys.

Way MORE expected from the Mulleavys.

## Storm Reid in Prada

Storm's outfit is very busy. She looks a little lost in it, frankly. But if you think it also looks kind of thrown together or piecemeal...

It IS, in a sense, because it's meant to be taken apart.

Except now it's just hotpants? Perhaps it's a tribute to cheerleaders.

## Karen Elson in Moschino

The angle of this photo, from above on the stairs, makes this very tall model look two feet tall.

Her dress is VERY understated as Moschino goes.

## Kristine Froseth in Tory Burch

I quite like this, and I say that KNOWING it might be a secret jumpsuit.

## Maria Sharapova in Gabriela Hearst

That's quite elegant. Also dull. But elegant.

This has a slight Weekend at Bernie's '80s zest.

## Rose Leslie in Oscar de la Renta

HOIK IT. HOIK IT REAL GOOD.

## Normani in Valentino

[This Valentino collection](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/valentinos-couture-collection-turned-the-volume-up-to-eleven-07-2021/) has gotten a massive amount of play. Clearly they took the temperature of the world and got it right. When we saw it, I begged people to wear their feelings after so much lockdown, AND THEY HAVE.

Sir, do NOT tempt the fire sprinkler system at this event. Or at the Met in general. (Something about making people breathe in your secondhand smoke, though, is on-the-nose about America and masking and how many people refuse to keep their Covid breath to themselves.)
