LUSE: I'm talking, of course,about the Met Gala, whose theme this year was Karl Lagerfeld, the latecontroversial fashion designer who led the House of Chanel for years.

LUSE: If you've somehowescaped the Getty Image red carpet photos of Rihanna or Doja Cat or Jared Leto,honestly, kudos to you. The Met looks are inescapable. And my next guest,Marjon Carlos, a fashion journalist and former Vogue writer, stayed up way toolate at a Met Gala afterparty getting the tea for me.
MARJON CARLOS: It was fun. Isaw Kendall Jenner, I saw Kylie, I saw Bad Bunny, I saw SZA. I don't know ifRihanna was there because I did leave at 2 a.m. so I don't know if she cameafter I left or she went to another party, but it was packed.
LUSE: What are your mostmemorable moments from the Met Gala?
CARLOS: You know, I believe that Anne Hathaway and Rihanna were, like,the winners of last night. And people can fight me, you know. I felt like theystole the show. I felt like they imbued the essence of Chanel and KarlLagerfeld. And they also had - they sold it to us. Those two really stood outas the winners.
LUSE: I think when I think about my favoritelooks - like, I loved Anne Hathaway's dress. She wore this beautiful Versacegown that also recalled a lot of elements of the House of Chanel, also recalleda lot of the ways that Karl Lagerfeld would remix a lot of the house elementsof Chanel, such as the chains and the camellia flowers and all of the white.
CARLOS: Karl Lagerfeld had alot of signifiers, so it gave a lot of people room to play. And I think the menwere probably very excited about that opportunity, right? I mean, normallythey're just - they come in black tuxes, and they go home.
LUSE: Yes. Yes, yes, yes.
CARLOS: I mean, I saw AltonMason did a moment with lace boots and, you know...
- he was, like, the perfectmannequin for this...
CARLOS: Absolutely.
LUSE: ...White lacehead-to-toe bridal look. It was incredible.
CARLOS: It looked like it wasa jumpsuit and there was, like, a corsetry and then these beautiful boots. Andit was a fantasy.
