“12 Celebs Who Subtly Shaded Karl Lagerfeld by Wearing Pink to the 2023 Met Gala”

The 2023 Met Gala has caused controversy with its theme, “In honor of Karl,” which pays tribute to designer Karl Lagerfeld. Lagerfeld was known for making insensitive comments about various marginalized communities, including fat-shaming, Islamophobia, and criticism of women’s bodies. He also supported accused rapists and defended those accused of sexual assault. This decision by the Met Gala to honor Lagerfeld did not sit well with many, and several celebrities subtly addressed their discomfort through their outfit choices, wearing pink instead of Lagerfeld’s signature black and white. Here are 12 celebrities who wore pink to the 2023 Met Gala as a subtle shade to Karl Lagerfeld: Viola Davis in Valentino, Quannah Chasinghorse in Prabal Gurung, Ashley Graham in Harris Reed, Quinta Brunson in Prabal Gurung, Sydney Sweeney in Miu Miu, Harvey Guillén in Christian Siriano, Chloe Fineman in Wiederhoeft, Karen Elson in Christian Siriano, Naomi Campbell in 2010 Chanel, Gwendoline Christie in Fendi, Jennifer Lopez in Ralph Lauren, and Cardi B in Miss Sohee (although she later changed into a black and white dress).
