Rosalía attended the MET Gala again this year and stood out on its red carpet, wearing a black dress with a strapless neckline and train signed by Dior, which she completed with a net headdress by Stephen Jones. It was the third time that the Spanish singer attended one of the most relevant events of the year in the world of fashion — in 2021, in her first appearance on this red carpet she relied on a red design inspired by a Rick Owens shawl with which she honored Lola Flores and in 2022 with an embroidered mermaid dress by Givenchy—and the creator of Motomami I was ready to make an impact.
She did it sporting glowing skin, her hair loose, and toned arms. But behind her appearance there was a lot of work, as she admitted in a video recorded by the American edition of Vogue while preparing for the event at The Mark Hotel. “Basically, I prepared for the MET by doing a lot of cardio, a lot of weights, a lot of fish and vegetables, a lot of meditation… and little partying,” Rosalía admitted to the camera, explaining the strict routine she underwent. She was happy with the result. “And don’t believe it, hey, I’ve lasted like a month, a month or so doing it. Consistency, dedication and commitment. And here we are. We have arrived, we have not arrived badly, I think,” she concluded with a smile. It is not the first time that the artist shares the work behind her public appearances and the energy and careful dances that she shows in her live shows: on more than one occasion she has uploaded photos in the gym, rehearsals of her choreographies for his concerts or the protein supplements he uses.
The fashion exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum in New York is titled this year Reawakening fashion: sleeping beauties and the theme that had to inspire the outfits of the gala that opens this exhibition was The Garden of Time, a story written in 1962 by JC Ballard. Many of the attendees needed help to be able to climb the stairs in the outfits chosen for the appointment, either because of the voluminous nature of their choice – like Cardi B or Gigi Hadid – or because of the tightness of the model, as in the case of Tyla, who with her sandy Olivier Rousteing dress she could barely move, or Kim Kardashian, who could barely breathe because of the corset of her Maison Margiela model, which sculpted a minimal waist and outlined an hourglass silhouette, emphasizing chest and hips. A similar silhouette was the one chosen by her sister, Kylie Jenner, a custom satin model by Oscar de la Renta. The beauty businesswoman and Rosalía posed together and left the gala hand in hand to return to the hotel, without being seen later at the parties to which other guests did attend.
Two years ago, Kim Kardashian already started a great debate by explaining upon her arrival at the MET Gala that she had been on a diet to be able to wear the dress in which Marilyn Monroe sang to her. Happy birthday to John Fitzgerald Kennedy in 1962. “I had the idea of wearing this dress, but when I tried it on it didn’t fit. So I told them, ‘I need three weeks and it will do.’ And I lost seven kilos,” Kardashian explained to the media, proud of her achievement: “I am a person with a lot of determination. I truly believe that no one believed I could do it, but I did it.” She added that to lose weight she had stopped eating carbohydrates and sugar for three weeks and that after the party she was going to binge on pizza and donuts.
His statements were criticized on social networks for promoting unhealthy habits and at that time not only was the fact of his express weight loss questioned, but he was also criticized for using a museum piece, which should be preserved in special conditions. and not be used in public. “According to the guidelines of the International Council of Museums, heritage clothing should be handled as little as possible; It should not be cleaned, except by technical personnel with specialized treatments; “It has to be handled with neutral gloves and isolated from contact with chemical elements that can alter its pH or react with the material,” he explained at the time in an article in S Fashion Miren Vives, general director of the Cristóbal Balenciaga Museum in Getaria.
