Doja Cat wore a towel, then a wet sheet by Vetements to Met Gala: stunt queen meh?

June 2024 · 3 minute read


Some of my favorite past Met Gala stunt queen moments are A$AP Rocky’s full quilt moment, Pope Rihanna, and Claire Dane’s light up Zac Posen gown. (Zendaya’s was also quite good but Claire did it first!)

None of those looks involved half-assery or significant T&A. Doja Cat gets under my skin because she’s such a trash person with zero respect for her fans and yet she makes decent bops. I like her music but I can’t enjoy it! Anyway, last night she wore a g-damn towel outside the Mark hotel and then a wet sheet at the Met Gala, both by Vetements. (I put a blur over her boobs for the header image so we won’t get penalized by advertisers.) Remember last year when she dressed like Karl Lagerfeld’s cat Choupette? That was so much better. She is shown here with designer Guram Gvasalia. Oh and I checked his Instagram and he has a pic with Doja in a clear trash bag. He should collab with Kanye.

My favorite take on Doja’s look was from Christian Siriano, who went off on E! about how lazy it was. Go here to see that.

Nicki Minaj is also someone whose music I enjoy (her older stuff, her collabs) who is not a decent person. Unlike Doja, Nicki can bring it fashion-wise and she did last night. She was in a bright yellow Marni mini dress with metal flowers around it. As Christian said on E!, Nicki has a cartoony style and this fits so well with this. This is fun, it’s whimsical and she is working it. Marni has details on their Instagram story of how the dress was made.

Rita Ora was also in Marni, in a nude pantyhose gown adorned with ancient beads if she and her husband, Taika Waititi, were telling the truth on their red carpet interview. (Marni’s IG story has photos of some of the beads so they probably were.) It’s a shame to repurpose historical beads as vag curtains, but here we are.

Charli XCX was in a white distressed Marni gown with a pointy boob underlay. She said it was made of white t-shirts from the 50s I believe. Marni states on their IG stories that this is made from “patchworked vintage t-shirts, fully embroidered with rhinestones and glass beads” and that it took 200 hours. I can appreciate the craftsmanship while saying the final result is pretty bad. If I’m being generous I would say the details are cool but it doesn’t photograph well.
