Here’s are my thoughts on the MET GALA, true and unfiltered.
The Met Gala 2025 sparked creativity, but also made me ponder the economics of fashion. Fashion Week feels overhyped, the Met Gala feels underwhelming - it seems like the wrong crowd is occupying the space.
With the Devil Wears Prada 2 sequel dropping 72 hours ago, it feels strategic - a nod to tradition in media and fashion.
Looking at Bezos and retail shifts, influencers in logistics, it raises questions about the industry's direction. We're at a crossroads, possibly sacrificing creative priorities for intellectual leadership.
If you enjoyed this segment, let me know ❤️. I’ll drop the full version on our YouTube channel.
I wanted to share my thoughts on the fashion industry & Met Gala.
