Vintage at the Met Gala

Posted on May 6, 2014 by Elisa Casas

The highly anticipated “Charles James: Beyond Fashion” opens at the Met on Thursday, but last night at the Met Gala, no one paid homage to the master of couture by wearing one of his dresses…as a matter of fact, there was very little vintage at all. But we can always count on the Olsen Twins to shake things up in vintage gowns: they always make unusual choices, and always stand out for doing so. That’s Mary-Kate in a striped vintage Chanel gown and Ashley in military-inspired Gianfranco Ferré."Charles James: Beyond Fashion" Costume Institute Gala - Arrivals

About Elisa Casas

ELISA CASAS (that’s me) was born and raised in New York City. I have a BFA in Photography from NYU and worked as a photojournalist and talent scout for major record labels before opening Chelsea Girl in 1993. I also owned Laurel Canyon Vintage, Clutch! and a popular cafe, City Girl Cafe, and I starred in the groundbreaking Sundance series, “Girls Who Like Boys Who Like Boys” with my best friend, David Munk. I like pomegranates, clouds, “Exile on Main Street,” birthdays, ancient ruins, the beach, abstract art, cypress trees, “Annie Hall,” old diamonds, Almodovar, clam shacks, surprises, Anne Boleyn, popcorn, “Rebecca,” margaritas, pugs, apple pie and castles in Spain. I live in TriBeCa with my fashionable daughter, Ruby. Follow Chelsea Girl on Facebook-https://www.facebook.com/ChelseaGirlVintage and Instagram-ChelseaGirlVintage
