Chapter 294 Occupies all the headlines of fashion media (4700)

"OK, let me confirm with you one more time before we begin."

"Don't bring your mobile phones. It's very important that everyone hand their phones in to security before 5pm."

"Stand upright, don't stand slouched or with your hands tucked in."

“You are not allowed to approach the exhibits separated by isolation tape, let alone touch the exhibits.”

…………

"No idle chatting is allowed, and no long-term occupation of the call channel is allowed."

"Most importantly, you are not allowed to initiate conversations with guests on site."

"I know tonight will be long and I know you'll be tired. But this is the Met Gala. This is the Met Gala! Got it?"

"Now, each of you, tell me what you are responsible for today, starting with you, Michael Kingsley."

…

Starting at 1:30 p.m., all staff and third-party service personnel took their positions and entered the Metropolitan Museum of Art to begin the final preparations before the party.

Specialized food suppliers, wine suppliers, decoration suppliers, three different conference service companies, security, media guides... The service team of no less than 300 people is like a group of agile worker ants, moving quickly and orderly through this museum that can accommodate 30,000 visitors at the same time.

By 4:30 p.m., the Metropolitan Museum's iconic 30 steps had been covered with a red carpet and a media area had been designated, and a considerable number of reporters and photographers had already set up their cameras.

This short distance of twenty or thirty meters is the ultimate stage that female stars and models dream of.

Reporters and photographers must also wear formal attire and wear appropriate media credentials around their necks.

At six o'clock in the evening, guests began to enter the venue one after another.

The first to enter were of course Anna Wintour, who has served as the chairperson of the Met Gala for 21 years, and her daughter Bea Schafer.

This year's Met Gala co-chair (host) Taylor Swift, rapper Idrissa Aybal, and Apple's chief design officer Jonathan Ivey also walked the red carpet.

This year's Met Gala is sponsored by fruit.

Flashes of light went off one after another. These people had no idea how many times they had seen such a scene. Everyone maintained a professional smile, waved and greeted the photographers on both sides, and even cooperated in posing for a few poops.

Soon after, Beyoncé, wearing a pink plastic rubber dress, also got out of the car and stepped onto the red carpet.

Not far behind her is Kristen Stewart, who was extremely popular in the past few years but has lost popularity in the past two years due to negative news and being overshadowed by Charlize Theron in "Snow White and the Huntsman".

The arrival time of the guests is also communicated in advance by Vogue and the guests' behind-the-scenes team. Every five minutes is a unit of time. The time of appearance is actually determined according to the importance and status of the guests.

Apart from the first group of guests arriving at the opening ceremony, most of the early arrivals were stars who were not that big in the fashion or Hollywood world.

The later the guest appears, the more famous he or she is.

There were 650 official guests, more than two-thirds of whom were members of the so-called upper class, who would not stop to take pictures.

A-list celebrities and models will basically walk the red carpet within the specified time and enter the reception area where private photos and selfies are not allowed.

The ones who really pose and flirt on the red carpet are basically foreign celebrities who have racked their brains to establish relationships with brands and been invited to participate.

And the Kardashians.

"This is bullshit!" a Vogue photographer couldn't help but whisper to a colleague. "Sequins, sequins, and more sequins. Silver sequins, gold sequins, black sequins. Is sequins the designer's understanding of technology?"

"Anthony, this is the worst Met Gala ever."

"Be quiet, Mason." The photographer named Anthony waved to a model who had just walked past. He was obviously an acquaintance.

"Sequins are nice, did you see Tabitha Simmons's Dolce & Gabbana outfit? Haha, an oriental general's uniform, hahaha, she must have mistaken Mochina for china, hahaha."

"Okay, I forgot that almost none of these designers have taken the SAT." The reporter named Mason shrugged, readjusted the aperture, and took two photos of Amber Heard who was stopping to take pictures.

"Amber's outfit today is pretty good. Huh? Her dress doesn't restrict her movement, so why does she look like she's having trouble walking? Didn't she come with Johnny Depp?" (The photo can't be posted, search for it yourself)

"Who knows?" another photographer responded casually before his eyes were drawn to the commotion behind Amber.

"Kendall! Look over here!"

"Look here! Kendall!"

"Emily Ratajkowski! Look over here!"

Kendall Jenner is the hottest model right now. The sound of shutter clicks on the first floor platform is more than when Beyoncé was there before, not to mention Amber.

There's no way. Amber is just a small-time actress. If she weren't Depp's wife, it would be impossible for her to attend a party of the Met Gala. Naturally, the attention she receives at such an occasion is far less than that of Kendall Jenner.

Kendall Jenner, who was wearing a blue and white hollow fishnet dress, and a model who was slightly shorter but had a good figure stopped on the first platform for a minute. After the reporter took pictures, the two supported each other and continued to walk up. When they reached the second platform, they stopped again.

"It's strange, how come Kendall Jenner and Emily Ratajkowski are together? Why don't they appear with Kim Kardashian? Are they on good terms?" Mason held up his camera and took pictures, muttering as he did so.

"And their walking posture is weird too. What's going on this year? Did the Met Gala prepare team building in advance and cause them to pull muscles?"

"They're greeting Amber. Are they that familiar with each other? Why do they look a little awkward?"

Mason couldn't help but continue complaining.

Anthony didn't bother to pay attention to Mason at this time, and kept taking pictures of the three women.

There is no way. With the blessing of the Kardashian family, Kendall Jenner is too popular, and she is considered to be the most famous one in this family.

Kendall Jenner, who is only 20 years old, has already won almost all high-end luxury shows in just a few years since her debut. Last year, she joined Victoria's Secret and officially joined the ranks of supermodels.

In the 16 months between last year and this year, Kendall Jenner has appeared on the cover of Vogue in half of the countries around the world.

Many people believe that it is only a matter of time before she dethrones Gisele Bundchen, who has held the title of the world's number one supermodel for 13 consecutive years.

Maybe this year, maybe next year, but it shouldn’t be too far away!

As a full-time photographer for Vogue, Anthony is very optimistic about Kendall Jenner and is considered one-third of her fan. Of course, he has to take more photos at this time and has no time to care about Mason.

"Anthony..."

Just as Anthony kept pressing the shutter, he heard Mason's distraught voice.

"Look down there." Seeing that Anthony still didn't react and was still taking pictures of Kendall Jenner, Mason's voice suddenly became excited, "Look! Cindy Crawford! Oh my God, this is definitely the best dress of the year!"

Cindy Crawford?

Is it really necessary to be so excited?

What era is it now?

Even if Cindy Crawford's look this time is good, she is already in her fifties, so how outstanding can she be?

What a lack of knowledge.

Anthony curled his lips and took dozens of photos before raising his head and looking down. After just one glance, Anthony couldn't take his eyes off it.

This... is this Cindy Crawford?

——

"Mrs. Gable, please."

After Fang Yu got out of the car, she walked around to the other side door of the stretched Lincoln. Someone had already helped open the door. Fang Yu stretched out her hand and made an inviting gesture to Cindy Crawford.

As the boss of the brand, Fang Yu would naturally walk with Cindy Crawford, the image ambassador of Lorraine Nouwen today, not Scarlett, and certainly not those three women.

"Thank you. If I were twenty years younger, I would definitely find a way to date you." Cindy Crawford gave a charming smile and extended her finger to Fang Yu.

Fang Yu held Cindy Crawford's hand and pulled her out of Lincoln, smiling back: "Thank you, ma'am. I was born too late. I'm sorry. I should have been born twenty years earlier."

"Hey, hey, hey, you two, I'm not dead yet." Rand Gable got out of the car with an unhappy look on his face, and then took his daughter Kaia Gable down with him.

Of course, everyone knew he was joking.

In fact, it is true. Rand Gable has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and he can tell at a glance whether there is attraction between men and women.

This guy really has no interest in his wife.

Fang Yu really likes understanding older sisters, not old aunts.

Even though Cindy Crawford looks young, she is already an old lady on the inside, and Fang Yu has no interest in her at all.

Hearing her husband's jealous teasing, Cindy Crawford laughed happily, her smile was as bright as the sun and her smile improved by the day.

"What do you think of Kaia? She is two years younger than you. I think you two will get along well." Cindy Crawford winked at Fang Yu.

Fang Yu was unmoved. He couldn't tell the difference between the front and the back of the little girl. What was wrong with that?

"Kaiya is very cute, but I am a playboy and not a good boyfriend. She deserves better." Fang Yu looked regretful.

Kaia is the daughter of Cindy Crawford and Rande Gable. She is also a model now. Her figure and appearance inherited the best features of her parents.

Currently, with the support of her parents' connections, 18-year-old Kaia's modeling career is not as amazing as Kendall Jenner's, but she is also a leader of the younger generation.

Hearing Fang Yu's response, Kaiya raised her eyebrows in dissatisfaction.

What's the meaning?

She was not too envious of her mother's miraculous restoration of youth. After all, she was only eighteen years old and in the prime of her youth. The word "aging" was too far away from her, so she could not truly empathize with it.

But she was really envious of that dress.

It was the most beautiful dress she had ever seen.

Originally, she wanted Fang Yu to lend her a dress of similar quality. She had already decided to attend the Los Santos Film Festival in September, and she wanted to be as stunning as her mother and steal the show.

But after hearing what Fang Yu just said, Kaia Gabe suddenly didn't want to talk anymore.

As soon as Cindy Crawford got out of the car, the flash lights started to flash one after another. For a moment, Cindy Crawford was a little nervous and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Cindy Crawford has attended the Met Gala 15 times, and except for her first time, she has never been as nervous as she was today.

Fang Yu stood on the right side of Cindy Crawford, Kaia stood with her mother, and Rande Gable stood on the far left holding his daughter's hand.

"Come on, Mrs. Gable, this is your moment." Fang Yu made a gesture of invitation.

"Thank you. This is also your Lorraine Novan moment." Cindy Crawford calmed herself down and smiled confidently. "You'll know you didn't choose the wrong person."

Yeah, this is my moment!

Cindy Crawford raised her face, showed a confident smile to the photographers, and walked onto the red carpet holding her daughter's hand! ——

"Dad... uh, why is Giss with that old woman and her family?"

Kendall Jenner was stunned when she saw Fang Yu walking with Cindy Crawford's family.

How did Cindy Crawford become so much younger?

Where did she get that dress? Wasn't she supposed to wear Balmain?

Most importantly, was he invited too? I didn't hear him mention it yesterday.

I seem to have forgotten to ask him yesterday what he does.

Judging from his appearance, is he a star from the Great Zhou?

So how did he end up with Cindy Crawford's family?

A series of questions suddenly flooded into Kendall Jenner's mind.

When Fang Yu hugged Emily Ratajkowski and chatted with her yesterday, she was just a little curious. What was this man thinking that he dared to hug a supermodel like Emily and chat with her?

After chatting for a few sentences, Kendall Jenner had to admit that this was indeed a mysterious and charming man.

That's why he impulsively agreed to explore the abandoned police station with Fang Yu and Emily.

Although Kendall Jenner has never been on a twin-engine plane, she knows that this kind of thing is not uncommon in the entertainment industry.

But what I didn’t expect was that when we set off, there was one more person.

They also knew the person who came, it turned out to be Depp’s wife!!!

In the end, Kendall Jenner finally understood why Amber looked relieved when she saw her and Emily.

Born into the Kardashian family, Kendall Jenner will not be a true white lotus under the influence of her family.

But she was only a 20-year-old girl after all. After experiencing the feeling of "dying, terrible feeling like the waves, lifelong shame, and unreserved surrender", it was inevitable that she would have some fantasies of love.

Ask Kaiya later.

Kendall Jenner thought to herself.

She and Kaia Gable are close friends, and they have a very good relationship. They live close to each other and often play together.

When Amber saw Fang Yu, she endured it again and again and didn't run over and call him dad in public.

The reporters at the scene all had their cameras trained on Cindy Crawford, shouting frantically, "Cindy, look here!!!!"

Big event!

Definitely a big event in the history of Met Gala!

Fifty-year-old Cindy Crawford mysteriously rejuvenates! She stole the show in a mysterious dress!

This dress...is definitely the best dressed of the show!

No doubt about it!

"The secret to staying young? Hahaha, you're being polite. But, it's a secret. Women with secrets are the most beautiful."

"This dress? I can only say that it is a mysterious dress. It's not dark yet. Only after dark can you discover the mystery of this dress."

“All I can say is that I’m now the Chief Experience Officer of Lorraine Nouwen.”

Cindy Crawford wore a charming smile and chatted briefly with a few familiar reporters. She posed in different directions before taking her daughter's hand again and continued walking up.

Seeing Cindy Crawford on the red carpet, almost all the guests and reporters in attendance seemed to have the same feeling.

The restoration of the king.

Especially when Cindy Crawford wore this dress and stood with Kendall Jenner for a photo, her powerful aura made the current de facto number one supermodel look like a cute baby who had never seen the world.

Cindy Crawford, who has dominated the modeling world for more than a decade, is back!!!

"Anna, Bea, long time no see." Cindy Crawford kissed Anna Wintour on the cheek when she entered the reception hall of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

"Long time no see, Cindy. Seeing your condition, maybe I can only leave the next Vogue cover to you."

Anna Wintour looked at Cindy Crawford, who was familiar yet unfamiliar, with a complicated expression, and the expression on her face was somewhat unpredictable.

I didn’t expect that Robbie Myers really made the right move!

She had just seen the reactions of the media reporters outside, and she believed that in a few minutes, Cindy Crawford would completely dominate the social media headlines of various fashion magazines!

She also noticed the reactions of all the guests present.

Even those family heirs who did not want to reveal their names to the public showed expressions of surprise, curiosity and even envy.

They will definitely find out how Cindy Crawford's skin condition can be rejuvenated so quickly.

Tears of the Moon Goddess—it’s a hit.

"Oh, by the way, the person next to me is Fang Gis, the actual controller of Lorraine."

Cindy Crawford introduced Fang Yu.

"Hello, Anna, nice to meet you." Fang Yu showed his white teeth and smiled at the white-haired old witch.

It's about to reach the real climax
