This morning, one of the most important events of the year for fashion and haute couture lovers took place at the Metropolitan Museum in New York: the Met Gala 2024. Little by little, different public figures posed on the famous stairs wearing designs witty, extravagant, romantic and fun.
In this edition, the theme was ''Sleeping Beauties: Fashion Reawakening'' and the official dress code was The Garden of Time, a very broad title that was inspired by a short story written in 1962 by the British author J. G. Ballard.
Due to the theme, a great parade of stars with floral and nature motifs was expected. In addition, there was great expectation, since this year's hosts are great figures from the world of film, television and music: Zendaya, Jennifer Lopez, Bad Bunny and Chris Hemsworth.
Starting at 6:00 p.m. (New York), different well-known faces appeared at the party organized by Anna Wintour and her team with great galas: Lana del Rey, Jennie Kim, Kendal Jenner, Penélope Cruz, Naomi Watts, Elle Fanning , Elsa Pataky, etc. However, it was a night full of absences that saddened fans.
The acclaimed Los Angeles actress Blake Lively has become an icon of the celebration held at the New York museum, which is why millions of followers from around the world eagerly awaited her entrance on the 'red' carpet.
While last year her absence was completely understood due to the fact that she had just given birth, fans have been frozen to discover the artist's decision on this occasion, since she knows perfectly well that it is a unique opportunity to have an impact and call the attention.
Throughout the day, thousands of users made it clear on platforms such as X (previously known as Twitter), Instagram and TikTok that they were looking forward to Lively's arrival at the event. When the carpet ended and it was confirmed that the actress had decided not to attend the Met Gala this year, fans flooded the Internet with complaints and laments.
''The Met Gala is incomplete without queen Blake Lively'', ''Blake Lively always wins even if she doesn't go'', ''No one will EVER beat Blake Lively's queen'' or ''It's like a World Cup of football without Messi" are some of the messages in this regard that can be read on the aforementioned networks.
