Billie Eilish
Billie Eilish’s dress at the 2021 Met Gala was no doubt one of the highlights of the night. In addition to her blonde hair for her second album Happier Than Ever, the singer has drawn many comparisons to none other than Marilyn Monroe.
According to The Marilyn Report, Eilish said she had always wanted to create the lavish ballgowns of the ‘holiday Barbies’ she adored as a kid.
But those online believed the color palette wasn’t playing to her strengths.
“Yeesh, that is not a good color on her. What was de la Renta thinking?!” one person asked.
“She choose [sic] the worst possible colour for her skin tone,” a second chimed in.

Gigi Hadid
Gigi Hadid’s golden dress was the right move… if it were on theme.
Many stars who attended the Met Gala were encouraged to reimagine previous historical outfits, while also honoring Black menswear and dandyism. But as deemed by fans, the model unfortunately missed the mark.
“Soooo disappointing,” one person commented. “Such an incredible opportunity to not wear a standard gown and to showcase tailoring in this gorgeous way.”
However, another person defended Hadid and claimed it did fit the theme.
“She is referencing Zelda Wynn Valdes, an African American designer who, in 1940’s Broadway opened a design and dressmaking studio (one of the 1st black owned business near) after learning her trade as a seamstress and designer at what I understand was her uncles tailoring shop,” they clarified.
