The Metropolitan Opera Brings Out The Jumpsuits
The stars came out Monday night in Manhattan for the New York premiere of Rossini’s Armida at The Metropolitan Opera House, sponsored by Yves Saint Laurent. Look of the night? Pants. Maggie Gyllenhall, Ginnifer Goodwin, and Chloe Sevigny all sported jumpsuits.
Pants at the opera? We’re a little old school and think that while Maggie looked divine, the jumpsuit was a tad inappropriate for the event. Did all celebrity stylists have a jumpsuit convention where they decided their clients should wear the look exclusively? The opera should be an excuse to wear your fanciest and don a pair of elbow-high gloves, not an event to showcase fashion’s latest trends.
It’s the theater, ladies. Get your classy on.
Love the outfit, but aren’t you cold? It’s not summer yet, Maggie, and we would have preferred you threw on a dress.
Thank you Camilla for literally being the Belle of the ball. The dress fits beautifully and the empire waist is a perfect style for the opera. She looked absolutely angelic.
Chloe did better than Maggie. Since your pants suit was black and you donned a classy pair of gloves, we won’t rip you apart for not knowing the ins and outs of opera dressing. But for someone who loves a good ball gown, we wonder why you opted for a silk jumper.
While we’re delighted to see a dress at the Met, Jennifer Morrison’s white gown was horribly unflattering. Her decolletage was oddly cut off by the neckline of the dress and her black clutch seemed harsh against the white gown.
Another jumpsuit! This time strapless and worn by Ginnifer Goodwin. The bustier top looks cheap, and while the fit of the pants is impeccable, it does not scream Metropolitan Opera in any way. Props to the black outfit with blue accessories and we love your hair, but please, next time, let’s dress up.
