Met Gala Well Played: Dakota Johnson in Jason Wu

Much like Kate Mara before her, Dakota is benefiting from my general excitement that this is something resembling anything.

I’m neutral on what her hair is doing — I think I’d have done a bun, maybe even sans bangs — but the lip is pretty, and the gown, disco-elegant. Would navy gloves have been too matchy? Because black feels a bit tacked-on, but I love the gloves in GENERAL — I think they are, actually, a fast way to beef up the glam factor of just about anything, and I may start applying that to my t-shirts and jeans. It’s going to be epic.
