Olivia Wilde's Violin Dress At The 2023 Met Gala Strikes The Wrong Chord

The theme for the 2023 Met Gala — which was seen as controversial by many — is Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty. Lagerfeld was a German fashion designer with his own fashion label and he also worked as the head of major fashion houses like Chanel, Chloé, and Fendi. And in Lagerfeld’s honor, Olivia Wilde wore a white dress featuring a guitar design and midriff cutouts. As The New York Times noted, it was created by Gabriela Hearst (Chloé’s current creative director) and it was based on a 1983 dress that Lagerfeld made: it’s made from deadstock fabric.

However, there was also a black version of the same Lagerfeld guitar dress, worn by Margaret Zhang, Editor in Chief of Vogue China. There was no mistaking that the women were basically wearing the same dress: But they each pull it off. Wilde wore her version of the dress with cuffs, inspired by the original design while Zhang goes a bit edgier with her blue hair, sunglasses, and a long train on her version of the guitar dress.
