Rihanna and Madonna Make Costume Changes for the Met
Gala After-Parties
After the red carpet, the cocktails,
the exhibition and the dinner, the Met Gala splintered into after-parties. It
was an opportunity to change outfits. The first stop was the Mark hotel on the
Upper East Side, where Michael Kors hosted several hundred, including former
Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg and Tommy Hilfiger. Katie Holmes arrived at around
11 p.m. after having switched out of her sparkly gown by Zac Posen into yet
another princess dress, also by Mr. Posen, who escorted her.
Where and when did she find the time
to change? “I won’t tell,” Ms. Holmes said. “Got to keep some mystery.” The
outfit swaps can be attributed to two things. First, most dresses worn to the
Met Gala are not exactly easy to move around in. Second, in this social media
age, designers and celebrities are looking to get as much bang for their buck.
A quick scan of the room revealed
numerous outfit changes. Mary-Kate Olsen began the night in a vintage Dior
gown, while her sister Ashley wore John Galliano. Both had now abandoned those
in favor of outfits that did not have trains and were somewhat less gothic. The
model Karen Elson ditched her red tulle Dolce & Gabbana gown with an
18-karat gold filigree bustier in favor of something more basic and black, also
by Dolce & Gabbana.
Definitely better for dancing,
especially with the R&B singer Miguel about to perform. Meanwhile, another
after-party was taking place at Top of the Standard, made famous last year by
an elevator feud between Solange and Jay Z. This year’s party (hosted by Yahoo
Style, Sarah Jessica Parker and Katy Perry) was a little quieter, though no
less star studded.
Reese Witherspoon was by the window
in a bright red Jason Wu dress with her “Hot Pursuit” co-star, Sofía Vergara
(in Marchesa), and Ms. Vergara’s fiancé, Joe Manganiello.
Across the way were the fashion
designer Riccardo Tisci, the music producer Diplo and Madonna. Earlier, Madonna had worn a black
floor-length Moschino gown with the name of her album “Rebel Heart” printed across
the bottom. But now she wore an ’80s-inspired leather jacket with gold dollar
signs across it as waitresses brought around sliders and vodka concoctions.
Solange did not show up this year
but was instead spotted dirty dancing at 3 a.m. with her husband, Alan
Ferguson, at Up & Down on West 14th Street. The party was hosted by Rihanna, whose trampoline-size yellow dress
earlier in the night practically broke the Internet.
For her after-party, Rihanna rolled
up to the club in a leave-nothing-to-the-imagination sheer black top. Inside,
dancing to a D.J. who calls himself Mazurbate, was a cavalcade of celebrities
and designers including Jessica Alba, Justin Bieber, Jennifer Lawrence, Grimes
and Francisco Costa of Calvin Klein.
When did you get here, a reporter
asked Mr. Costa. “Good question,” he said, having long since lost Lorde, his
celebrity bride for the evening. “I don’t even know.”
