I'm Morgan Stewart, and welcome to the Morgan Stewart Show. I'm gonna be talking about pop culture, fashion, my personal life, and just a warning, I will be giving my opinions on everything. And those opinions are subject to change. Okay, now let's get into it. Okay, you guys, sound effects. It is an emergency episode. Officially, it is Met Gala Tuesday, right? Met Gala Tuesday. I'm so fucking excited. I waited an entire. I don't know how, like, 12 hours, 13 hours to hold my opinions. I got so many dms from you guys. And I mean, like, I actually got so many DMS from you guys. I feel like people say that, and you're like, you got two DMS. I literally got over 100 messages being like, we don't want to wait. I didn't want to wait. It was really hard for me. But here we are. Okay? So we're going to get into it. We're excited. Thumbs up. Brendan, excited. Jessica, excited. Okay, Kim, Kody, we're all here. I have, first of all, 6,000 pieces of paper that I'm definitely not gonna be looking at, but it is good for me to have them in front of me so that I can say semi organized. We are gonna start in no particular order in terms of, like, best dress, worst dress. I think we're just Gonna go person by person. Do you like that idea?
Kim Cohen
Yes.
Morgan Stewart
Okay. I have to just start out with. And I just feel like this feels right. My best dress of the entire night. Did I tell you who it was before off camera?
Kim Cohen
No.
Morgan Stewart
Who do you think it is? Throw out a name. It's not gonna be who you think it is.
Kim Cohen
I don't think it's gonna be Nicole Kidman for you.
Morgan Stewart
It's not Nicole Kidman.
Kim Cohen
Okay.
Morgan Stewart
But I do. Okay. I'm not gonna get into that yet.
Kim Cohen
I don't think it's gonna be Sabrina Carpenter. Or is it?
Morgan Stewart
It's not Sabrina Carpenter. And I'm gonna tell you guys right now. Okay, it is. Drum roll, please. Kris Jenner. Hold it. Take it in process. I understand there's mixed emotions. I understand there's an air of confusion, maybe disappointment when Kris Jenner walked on those steps and a lot of people gagged me, I'm not gonna lie. Like, I was really intensely, intently, all of it, looking at all the people coming up the steps. Chris, to me, felt like she was wearing something that Mary Kate Olsen would wear fully. Felt like true fashion. The glam, the hair, the sort of vibe of the dress, the sequins, the embellishments, the color. I don't know what it is. I don't know if this. It like rocked me because this is like a 70 year old woman that's like in the prime of her life. But I thought it was so fucking good. I know Kim is like, bitch, you're out of your mind. You're out of your mind. I know, but I just think she checked all the boxes and I fucking loved it. Obviously not obviously, but Chris wore Dolce and Gabbana, which we know mixed feelings on that, but I will say, I don't know what it is. This is maybe her best look ever in the time that we've known Kris Jenner, so I have to give that shout. Okay, so here's the thing. I am a huge Kim Kardashian fan. I have been with her through all of the years, all of the seasons, all of the hair colors. I've understood most of what she's done, and I do think a lot of people's strong opinions comes from them not understanding the angle or the inspiration behind something. Kim in 20. When was it? 2015, when she was with Kanye and she went to Paris and she had that freshly dyed blonde hair and became a fashion girl. I was signed the fuck up. I like, could not get enough of that. This is the first time I wasn't riding with it. I love blonde Kim. I think the hair looks good. That's kind of what I want my hair color and hair to look like at all times. It was just a bit too. I understand the composition is interesting. It's obviously very sculptural. The colors are interesting, but the bottom half and sort of the skirt that was attached to the bodice, which. Who. I know who let me grab my phone, but I just felt like was very high school project. It did not. It didn't work for me and I understand it, but it didn't. I really fucking hate it. I hate to say that, but I really did not like it. Also, I should probably go to the Instagram and have it on my phone. Of all the things that I'm going to talk about today, Kim was not a win. Kim was not a win for me. I was not into it. Kylie. Guys, Kylie ate the fuck down. Kylie has never, never shown up on a red carpet like that. The deconstructed dress, the bleach blonde eyebrow and body. I couldn't fucking handle it. I don't know what these Kardashian Jenner clan, I don't know what they had to drink last night or what motivation was was in them. This is hands down the best she's ever looked. The necklace, the earrings, the glam, the hair, the bleached brow, everything was so intentional and executed so perfectly. And if you saw, there was also footage of her walking out of the hotel where she had like sort of a. Either the dress kind of covered, like, covered like she was wrapped in the dress or it was like a cape or something. But it was so beautiful. She should be really impressed with herself because again, Chris is still my best dress. But, Kylie, you did it, girl. You fucking did it. Looks so fucking good. Who made Kylie's dress? Schiaparelli. Schiaparelli. Okay. Custom Schiaparelli. Okay, so Kris Jenner wore Dolce and Gabbana. Kylie wore custom Schiaparelli. The best custom Schiaparelli I think of the entire night. Okay, let's talk about Kendall Jenner. Kendall Jenner on the carpet. Zac Posen for Gap. It was inspired. Well, it was obviously of the Nike sculpture, but it was inspired by the Gap white T shirt. That's what I read and saw, which is sort of what Kim did a few years ago with the Balenciaga when she did the face covering in the black. Kendall looked as close to perfection as you possibly could have. My only thought, and I'm not even saying that I wanted this to be the case, but it was a thought that entered my mind was when she had the nude bodice underneath with the. With the fabric draping around her. I had the thought that I wasn't sure if I would have preferred it no bodice, and just had the fabric drape around her actual boob and give real nipple and just have it be that sort of, like, tight stretch, sort of wet look. I don't know. I just. That was something that came to my mind. I don't know how I feel about the imprinted nipple, but I understand it's modeled after a sculpture, so that makes sense. And it's interesting that her and Kylie both did that, and I'm curious if they had discussions around that or if that was, like, a complete accident. I thought she looked unbelievable. I mean, the shot of the night, as Kim pointed out, was when she went inside the Met and she fluffed up the dress to have it look like wings. And you got the full sort of picture of what the dress looked like. I mean, unbelievable. And by the way, something that I should have mentioned at the top of this episode is that the theme was fashion as art, which is a theme, but is also a bit ambiguous and is up. It's up to interpretation, right? Like, that doesn't mean wear X, Y and Z. Like, you know, a lot of people did model their clothes after sculptures or famous paintings and, you know, drew inspiration from that. But, like, a lot of people just wore dresses that had nothing to do with anything. So the theme is always what trips people up. But anyway, I thought Kardashian, Jenner clan last night, really some of the best looks ever. I'm not gonna lie. I thought it was unbelievable. Okay, so let's get into some other people. Let's talk about Anne Hathaway. I just saw the Devil Wears Prada, so I just feel like she's fresh in my mind. I hated Ann's dress. I thought that her glam looked amazing. I thought that her gold necklace looked beautiful. I loved her jewelry. I hated that dress. I know. It was Michael Kors. Michael Kors, being a legend himself, I adore him. He always looks so great and tan and healthy, hydrated. I. I don't know. Something about this dress felt very heavy, overly just. I don't. Not embellished, but just patterned. And I. I didn't. I didn't dig it. And I felt like it definitely. And as we. Before we started recording, everybody in the studio was like, it definitely just feels like something Anne would wear, which does Track. But I feel like, why not step outside of the box? Obviously, you are in the biggest movie of all time right now. You are sort of the embodiment of, like, what fashion is supposed to be. And I don't know. I just didn't like it. Did you like it?
Kim Cohen
I did like it. I like it a lot. I love someone that can fit into a theme very well, and I think she.
Morgan Stewart
She did that.
Kim Cohen
She understood the assignment. Yes, but was it taking a risk? No, no, but she understood the assignment.
Morgan Stewart
She understood the assignment. I think my point is that it's just ugly.
Kim Cohen
And that's fair.
Morgan Stewart
And that's fair. Right? I just think it was, like, an ugly dress. I mean. Brendan, do you have any thoughts on the dress? Sweetie, what's going on?
Jason Bolden
I can't.
Morgan Stewart
Oh, okay, Good. That's great. Cody, did you like the dress?
Cody Fisher
I didn't mind it, but I don't think of Anne Hathaway as someone who's gonna, like, show up at the Met and wear something, like, interesting.
Morgan Stewart
Yeah. And I don't even know if I need interesting from Anne. I think I just didn't like it. It just. I did not like it. Okay, moving on from Anne. Do you want to talk about Blake Lively?
Brendan Burns
Sure.
Morgan Stewart
Okay. I have so many feelings and thoughts about Blake Lively. As a longtime Blake Lively fan, I don't know how I feel about her in this exact moment in time. I mean, it is pretty. I. I think it's pretty shameless that she showed up after they just had settled. I mean, look, at the end of the day, like, she has to move on with her life, and I don't know the details of what went on, but, I mean, to show face. I mean, if I was Blake, I might have stayed home just because it's been a very tumultuous time for me, and I probably wouldn't want to deal with, like, getting dressed and having to face all those people, but good for her. She wanted to get out there. I have always liked Blake on the red carpet. I think it's really fun. I understand that in some ways, it is bad taste, but there's something about her that I. I like what she wears. I think that this Versace dress was fun. It was colorful. It was buoyant. It was big. There was a lot of fabric. The colors were pretty. She looked great. Her face looked great. Her arms look fucking ridiculous. I really. I didn't mind it. Oh, the comments are not nice. Damn. I'm literally looking at a picture of Blake via the cut, and there's just throw up emoji after throw up emoji, which I think is just not necessary. But I really did like the dress. It's sort of like was. It's probably like Ro's biggest like fan fantasy to wear that dress. It's giving like unicorns, rainbows and butterflies and those, those, those cookies when we were kids dipped in the sprinkles, the, the animal crackers. That's what it's giving. Is that what it's giving? Cody, were you gonna say something? You're. You're looking at me.
Cody Fisher
It's giving. My little pony.
Morgan Stewart
It is giving. Oh, it's giving my big pony. I mean that fucking, that looks like a heavy dress. And there was footage of her going up the stairs where she was kind of like talking to do see where she was talking to the guys. And she was like, no, you need to like not just bunch this fucking dress up. You need to like let it cascade down. I was like, then you should have brought someone with you. Like these guys are just trying to get you from point A to point B. Which by the way, just to pause, we have to shout out all of the people in their show blacks last night who are fucking hustling their ass up and down that carpet, making sure these A list celebrities who are pretty self unaware, pretty unaware of themselves not self aware, having to just maneuver them from point A to point B, get up the steps. This person's coming on. There is so much work, so much thought that goes into that. And also shout out to all the reporters on either side of the steps because I have to shout out my girl, Zuri Hall. I mean, the animalistic instincts that take over when you are fighting in front of people trying to get anybody to say anything to you is a very high stressful, high stress position. And everyone did a really good job. Okay, Gigi Hadid. Gigi Hadid is so beautiful. That's also tricky when you're naturally such a beautiful person. Which I think is going to also play into my Hailey Bieber commentary. I. It's almost like sucks because you don't have to try as much. So sometimes the outfit comes second. Cause you look good in everything and your face always looks good when you don't. When you have to try hard with the face, it's more pressure. I thought the dress was pretty. The body looked crazy. Crazy, like unfucking believable. Everything was just insane in proportion. Face looked great, hair looked great. Loved it. The dress was lackluster for me and I have to say I Did not like the bloomers underneath. I thought they were too ruffled. It didn't work. And I. I think the undergarment, if it's gonna show as a main piece of the outfit, has to be really intentional, and you have to make fucking sure that that is the right look. And I. I just. And I knew that they were Miu Miu bloomers. I understand. Cause she was in custom Miu Miu. It just. It was lackluster for me and didn't. Didn't do much. And I have to say, she never really is like a red carpet favorite of mine. But again, she's, like, so gorgeous. If Gigi would have worn Kendall's dress, the Met would have shut the fuck down. I mean, Kendall. Kendall shut it the fuck down. But Gigi would have looked insane in that. Okay, let's talk about Iowa debris. She's become our rising star. She's our girl. The face is insane. Body's insane. She wore custom Chanel, styled by Danielle Goldberg, who also is probably top five stylists of all time at this point. I think she has a deep understanding of fashion, and she really dresses her girls individually and correctly. And I think she really takes her time and understands all of them individually, which is. Is really important. I think with some stylists, they just try to put everyone in the same vibe, and it does not work. Kim, you didn't like IO's dress or you did like. I'm not putting words in your mouth. So what do you think about IO's dress?
Kim Cohen
I think the pictures that I saw really were just thigh up. But when you watch the videos, it really does flow a lot more. I like the structure of the shoulder.
Morgan Stewart
Gorgeous.
Kim Cohen
And I think Ayo looks great in almost anything she wears. She is a person that really doesn't have to try that hard. But she has such taste, and I think that she is a proper muse for a lot of stylists. So I, seeing the videos, really, really liked her dress more than the photos.
Morgan Stewart
The photos. Photos are really tough. I also think what you said about, like, the taste. Like, you can tell who has an understanding of fashion who truly has input in what they're wearing. And then you can also tell the people that are just being put in things, and they're just like. I just. IO is definitely that person that understands what she likes, what she doesn't like. At least that's what it seems like. I mean, she wore custom Chanel. I. I thought it was pretty ethereal. I thought it was beautiful. I really liked it. I Understand what you're saying about the photos. The shoe is a perfect match. Another thing I want to say because I'm now, like, bubbling up with all these thoughts. When you have a dress that is a specific color that is out of the box, whether, even if it's black, if you try to pair a dress with a silver, silver, or gold shoe as a neutral, I want to fucking kill myself. You cannot. It does. No, stop it. Don't do it. If you're in marigold, you need to have a satin marigold shoe fucking dyed to perfection. Brendan, are you listening to this? It's important. Okay? I want you to understand this. Thank you. That I can't deal with. If you think that you're in this, like, avant garde fashion dress that's, like, over the top and gorgeous, and then, like, nobody's focused on your shoes, and then you have, like, a golden heel that has nothing to do with what you're wearing. Right. Horrific silver. No. The shoe has to match or it has to go completely against the grain, but it has to feel like it was thought of. And I see that way too much, which is why I'm gonna segue into Sabrina Carpenter right now. Is everyone ready for that? Okay, Sabrina Carpenter wore. Let me pull it up. What did she wear? She wore a dress of film roll. You know what I'm doing right now? I want everyone to know in real time. I am trying to text Sabrina Carpenter in my phone. I'm searching Sabrina in my texts.
Kim Cohen
Okay?
Morgan Stewart
That is the type of host and person I am. Okay, let me go to. Check the tag. Shout out. Check the tag. Because I always get all of my information from. Check the tag. Okay, Sabrina. Okay, so I'm gonna segue into Sabrina Carpenter custom Christian Dior. On the way here, I was making a joke or, like, as I was thinking about what I was gonna say about everybody, and I was like, oh, my God, it looks like old film roll. The youth doesn't know what that is. And then I. Then it really was. It's been confirmed that it is film role, headpiece, fine dress. I actually thought a step forward in terms of fashion for Sabrina. I like it. I think it fit her well. I think it was fun and flirty and playful and creative. The shoe fun, flouncy, flirty, fun. And then all of a sudden, you're like, thump. Like these big fucking heavy suede velvet, like, suede black pump. Like, that's absolutely not the shoe. And as a girl that wore a Louboutin daffodil, which is what she's wearing exclusively for four years. I have them in literally nine colors in storage. Verify. Jessica Do I not. Yeah, okay. I know that shoe. I know the height you get on that shoe. I understand the importance of that shoe. That shoe should not have been the fucking shoe that she wore with the custom Dior dress. It doesn't work. Do you agree?
Kim Cohen
Agreed.
Morgan Stewart
Doesn't work. That should have been. You could have gotten the height. It should have been either a black satin or a very subtle dark, muted charcoal or gray open toe. The shoe doesn't work. So everything she's done with all of this work just destroyed with that shoe. Doesn't go. Doesn't go at all. I got really just riled up with that because when I saw her go up the stairs last night, the posing was incredible. The face is incredible. She's our pop princess. Shoes not. They were not good for me.

Katy Perry Now I'm really getting into it guys. I have to like compose myself cause when I get going on the fashion journey it really kills me because these People have so much access, they take weeks for prep. Right. Like, we see them one night, they are getting lymphatic drainages. They are doing all. Allegedly, I'm assuming, and I would as well. So just for the record, they are doing any sort of GLP1. They're on a detox, they're drinking soup, they're doing everything to look gorgeous. And then the night comes. And when it's not a hit, it must hurt. Katie, you can laugh out loud. I want you to. I want you to. This is what we're doing here, guys. I want. Everyone can get on the mic and laugh as much as they want. Katy Perry. I love Katie. She's got some bops. She's part of the generation. I understood. Well, I was told that the face mask, the sort of beekeeper adjacent helmet is because that's how all of the models in or the mannequins look when you go inside the exhibit. So that's sophisticated and thoughtful. She's in custom Stella McCartney. I don't think this was the moo. Now we're looking at a picture of her with the mask open. I. I just don't think it hit the way maybe they intended it to. I think also when you rely too much on a gimmick for something like this, like, there's. I mean, art goes back thousands and thousands and thousands of years. There's so many things that you can pull from. So I just felt like this fell short. She looks good. I mean, that's the thing. None of this. Of what we're talking about is anyone's physical appearance, because everyone looks beautiful. I mean, they have hair and makeup and spackle and shine and fishing line and everything you fucking need to look beautiful they have at their disposal. I just feel like this was not what needed to happen. Right? Didn't need to happen. Oh, my God. Okay. Kim is like, we're on this ride. Heidi Klum. What the fuck is Heidi Klum on?
Kim Cohen
It was funny.
Morgan Stewart
It was funny as fuck at first. Okay. When I first saw Heidi Klum come
Kim Cohen
on the screen, I literally gasped. I said, oh, my God.
Morgan Stewart
I thought it was Billie Eilish. Everyone thought it was Billie Eilish. I really was shooketh. And then. So explain to. And I should know this, what the fuck is she wearing? Cause I was literally trying not to keep all my opinions to myself. But she's at least creative and artistic and, you know, she does that Halloween party every single year. So, you know, go off Heidi. I mean, the thing about Heidi, my favorite fact about her beyond what she's wearing to the Met Gala is that Heidi is never tired. I literally sleep nine hours. I'm exhausted, okay? My eyes are puffy. I'm tired as fuck. And Heidi Klum, she's going from yacht to plane to hosting the Voice. She's not on the Voice. What show is she on? She's on America's Next. She's on something. She's on lots of shows. She's on lots of vacations, and she's in lots of places, and she's never tired. She is upbeat. My girl Heidi is upbeat. But I thought it was funny, and I thought it was a good reference. Okay, jump scared. It was crazy, right? But also, like, who is she enlisting to do all of these things for her? Because that takes time. That also another thing about Heidi Klum. I wanna pause on Heidi. The patience this woman must have. If I have glam that goes over an hour and 25 minutes, I am moody. I wanna be done. There's only so much you can do to make my face look decent. Heidi is sitting in that chair for. It must be six hours minimum. She's doing Thriller makeup every time she's leaving the fucking house. I mean, she's doing top to bottom fucking makeover. It's crazy. Oh, okay. Another one, guys. Oh, is the audience, like, turning the volume down when I'm screaming, screaming into the mic. Charli Xex. I. I didn't like it. I really did not like Charli xcx. I think Charli XCX is one of the most effortlessly sexy women. She just looks good on stage. And just this. The tone of the stomach is something like, I really can't. I don't understand how it's possible. I think she looks pretty. The dress really fell flat. And here's the thing. Like it did, right? Do you agree with that?
Kim Cohen
I think it's a beautiful dress, and she's incredible, but I think I would have gone bigger for the men.
Morgan Stewart
You're Charli xcx. But this is the other thing that is tricky. When you have a contract with a house, you are, you know, expected and not forced. But you are supposed to wear the house. And YSL obviously has done unbelievable things. It's one of my favorite brands. I'm in St. Laurent today because I wasn't gonna talk shit about people and not wear something proper. I thought the dress fell flat. The dress felt like you wear it to a wedding in Monaco in the end. At the end of June with a guy you're newly dating and you don't know anyone at the wedding. That's what it felt like. It felt like that. Right.
Kim Cohen
What would you have done differently?
Morgan Stewart
I would have. This dress wouldn't exist. First of all, I would have liked to have seen her in white or a color or just something a bit more avant garde. Like I. When I talk about Charli xcx, I. Even this. I mean, what is this?
Cody Fisher
She had better looks during the Wuthering Heights.
Morgan Stewart
Yes.
Cody Fisher
This is what this is.
Morgan Stewart
You know what I think it is? Sometimes I think with the Met, there is so much pressure to perform. And this is what I want to say before we continue on the Met gala. Looks are the equivalent to your Instagram grid, and the after party looks are equivalent to your Instagram story. The Instagram story. Okay. Always performs better because there's less pressure and that Paris filter is readily available. Okay? So what happens is it's all of the lead up and it just falls flat. So then you need to just. You need the story energy, which we're going back in time because I. Listen, I told you, this is the Morgan Stewart Show. We were going to talk met. I didn't say it was going to be organized. Kendall's after party look I thought might have rivaled. Riled. Riled and rivaled. Might have riled the car.
Kim Cohen
Rivaled.
Morgan Stewart
Rivaled. No, I knew it was rivaled.
Kim Cohen
Okay.
Morgan Stewart
No, I was with you. Kim, could you.
Jason Bolden
I'm sorry.
Morgan Stewart
She's like, bitch. It's rivaled. No, I love you. Rivaled her red carpet look, guys, don't adjust anything. I'm just. I'm thinking to myself for a second. I. I'm picturing her on the carpet and I'm gonna retract. She wore the right dress on the carpet. The after party look was a really nice addition to the red carpet look. I love that she walked out with sort of the creamy beige sand color veil over the face, the bodice being fully exposed, having sort of the. The fabric train run through the bodice. I thought it was absolutely gorgeous. Stunning and dramatic and really good taste. Another person I want to talk about in terms of Instagram story and grid, Ms. Hailey Bieber. We haven't talked about Hailey Bieber. Kody, did you see Hailey Bieber?
Kim Cohen
Of course.
Morgan Stewart
Okay.
Cody Fisher
I just pulled it up for you.
Morgan Stewart
I know. I appreciate that so much because my phone keeps turning off. Going back to what I said about Gigi Hadid. When you're so naturally beautiful and look hydrated and poreless and the hair is. Looks like this day and night. It's almost like you can rely too much of that, and then people forget, like, how much you need to focus in on the dress. I did not like this. I liked the idea of this. I'm not a huge fan of this color combination, especially for Haley, and let me tell you why I didn't like it even more so. I don't feel when Haley left the hotel room that Haley liked it. I didn't think she. I think when she walked out of wherever she got ready uptown, I saw some footage of her, and she was just sort of like, let me get into this fucking sprinter van. Let me get this over with. I didn't feel, like, a sense of happiness and, like, she ate down. I know that she was with ysl. She's no longer with ysl. She wore YSL to the Met. Fabulous. But I didn't feel like this was her best. Do we agree with that thought, or you liked it?
Kim Cohen
I always think it's interesting when things are sculpted to someone's body, but I think what Haley suffered from is the same thing that Kim suffered from. Really interesting top. Really? Not into the bottom.
Morgan Stewart
I mean, I understand. No, I think that's a good point. I understand sort of the bodice vibe, and I like it, But I also feel like. And I hate to say this, but I didn't think it was even that flattering, the way it cut her. I don't think she felt that good in it. So, I mean, look, we've seen this type of look before throughout the decades of fashion that we've been looking at it. I. I just. It wasn't my favorite for her. And Haley is so beautiful and effortless. I really want to see her have a huge red carpet win. I don't think there's been a moment where she's looked gorgeous many times over, but when you think of Hailey Bieber, do you think of a specific time where you're like, that is the fucking look. I mean, this girl has built a business out of literally fucking nothing. She's one of the biggest stars we have right now. I need. I need a Danielle Goldberg moment with Haley. I need her to, like, get in there and wear. Wear a white thong and a wife beater. She could literally fucking do that, no problem. So. But Haley's after party, her story post. She looked happy. She looked gorgeous. I really liked that. I thought that that was fun. Yes. Look at her. She looks beautiful. I thought it was interesting. I'm into that. I would have preferred her that she wore this to the mat. I'M not gonna lie. Another thing I want to mention as Kim and I stare at this, the cape cascading over Hailey's shoulders you pointed out beautiful, helped, but otherwise felt like a bit lackluster. Damn it. Okay, we need to get Hailey. We need to get Haley to have her, like, serious moment here. You know what it's giving? It's giving a lot of effort. Cause obviously, what is the process of getting your body molded to that?
Cody Fisher
And then everyone got 3D printed.
Morgan Stewart
3D picture.

Yeah.
Morgan Stewart
And then it's like for it to not pay off. But anyway, I think really, what influences, as I said, what really influenced my depin, My opinion on Haley's look was that I don't think that Haley liked her look. I'm just gonna go out on a limb and say that.
Kim Cohen
Wanna talk about nerves on the carpet? Because you have to go up the steps and not trip and all that.
Morgan Stewart
The NER you guys, I getting from your hotel to your car to the carpet, then, by the way, fuck the carpet. You're waiting in line for sometimes half an hour. Okay. You need to make sure that your makeup is in place. You have to pose correctly. There is absolutely nothing relaxed about the entire process. There's a lot of pressure on these people, so that's really tough. So. Oh. I'm curious what you guys think about this one. Olivia Wilde. Did we see Olivia Wilde? She was in custom. Tom Brown. Olivia Wilde is one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood. She is striking. I loved the black. I loved the cut. She looked like a pregnant spider to me. The back of this dress, it literally looked like some sort of Halloween graphic. I love Carla Welch. I love Olivia. I. I understand. Tom is a fucking genius. She looks like a black widow coming out from some sort of Disneyland movie ride. It was so I couldn't unsee that. It literally felt like a big spider's tummy on the back of her ass. So for me, it just didn't hold up. And I'm somebody that understands things like this, but once I had that image in my mind, I couldn't move on from it.

My initial thought was that I don't like it because those colors together are very jarring. But it is very on theme and it is the better of the Tom looks for me. Hair looks great. Makeup looks great. It's a fun dress. It's the appropriate dress to wear. So we'll give her that. Is that fair?
Kim Cohen
That's fair.
Cody Fisher
Fair. I also think this is another dress where the photos aren't doing it justice. I think when you see the videos of it, it's really different. Yeah.
Morgan Stewart
It's also very, it looks very sculptural, even though it's not. It's obviously just the pattern of the dress. But yes, I actually the more I look at this dress, the more I like this dress.
Kim Cohen
Kind of looks like it's painted on her.
Morgan Stewart
It definitely looks like it's painted and the body looks crazy in that dress. Okay. I like this dress. She looks cool. She looks like a fashion girl. You are, right. Yep. I rescind my original opinion. She looks really good. I'm still focused on the fact that Kim didn't think I knew what rivaled meant. Okay, Zoe Kravitz, everyone. So I think last night was first of all, I do want to get into before I get into Zoe Kravitz. Last night felt very vacant and empty, but yet very Full. I have no idea why I feel that way. It feels like everyone was there, yet it feels like no one was there. Does that make sense to the group? Does that make like. I'm like, I don't know if I missed people. I mean, I watched the E Shout out E. I watched the E. Carpet coverage. I watched the live met stream or live stream met gala, whatever on my TikTok. I was like, where is everybody? Everyone's there, but nobody's there. Zoe Kravitz, much like Kris Jenner, this was her best red carpet look I have ever seen. And yes, she's had some good looks. She's always appropriately dressed in terms of theme. When she was playing Catwoman, YSL Anthony did a lot of those things where there was, like, the kitties over the boobs. Remember all of those looks? Obviously, that face is fucking. I don't even know how you achieve a face like that. I'm so far away from that. Look at that. Look at that. Look at her. Fucking crazy. This is her best look ever. I love the dress. I love the lace. I love the bodice. I love that. It was just. It hit the theme. It feels like that 18th century skirt without doing too much. Like, it just worked. Do you love it?
Kim Cohen
I really did love it.
Morgan Stewart
Right?
Kim Cohen
Yeah. I think she looks lovely.
Morgan Stewart
Another. She does look lovely, but she looks edgy and she looks cool. And another thing that I want to say about Zoe Kravitz, I love that there was no necklace. Sometimes people are putting on a necklace for no reason. I'm like, we don't need to do that. We need to be thinking. And I also think a rule of thumb for everyone who's getting ready, do your fitting two days before, get your photos, get your final looks, and leave it and walk away. I think the last minute deciding things when you're emotionally heightened. I'm giving opinions to all the stylists. I think it's just better to just leave it alone. You made the decision when your brain was much more rash. There's no reason to just go and add a bunch of shit last minute. And sometimes I think that happens. Oh, Danielle Goldberg again. So Danielle Goldberg, who's the sister of a friend of mine. She. She fucking. She really understands her clients. Okay, let's also talk about Nicole Kidman. Should we try calling Jason Bolden and see if he answers?
Kim Cohen
Why not?
Morgan Stewart
Okay. So Jason Bolden. Jason Bolden dressed Nicole. Jason Bullden's top five favorite people. He's probably not gonna answer because he's in Met Hell. We're talking about Nicole Kidman on camera.
Jason Bolden
Just got off a plane.
Morgan Stewart
No, I. I just want to know. So. Because she's literally everyone's basically best dressed. I want to know. Just, first of all, tell me anything. Give me something, Nicole. What. How did you feel when she put the dress on? Gagged, Lights out?
Jason Bolden
I mean, I saw it in Bay Ritz when we tried it on the Bay Ritz when she was there, and there was a couple of. It was a couple of shifts that we wanted to change, and we did it, and. But instantly, listen, we're. It was. It was completely about contouring, Contouring, contouring from the waist to the face, you know, and we wanted to really make sure that it was all set up. Right. But can you imagine all those, like. And if you really look at the details and the. The feathers. The feathers are actually flowers. Those Chanel flowers. Yeah. If you really look, you'll find it. You'll find little ones in there.
Morgan Stewart
You guys, I'm literally looking as he's explaining this to me, and you fucking see those goddamn flowers. That is insane. No, she looked. Holy fuck. When she walked on with Anna and Lauren. I literally. First of all, when you said sculpted from body to face, the face. I don't know. I don't know how we got there, but I'm obsessed that you answered. And I just want to know, lastly, how fucking tired are you?
Jason Bolden
I'm tired. I had 12 people. Look, I'm on the tarmac.
Morgan Stewart
No. Oh, that's. I love being on the tarmac. Okay. Also, I'm gonna hang up with you because we're going to. Oh, not Chanel, but. Oh, dare. There's my person. I also want to just. We're getting into this. Nicholas Holt, are you not okay? Justin. Brada. I'll leave my family. What do you mean I'm not okay? And it was insane when I saw it. I couldn't believe you did that many. And we won't even get into the other ones. It is Nicole. I will say this has been Nicole's
Jason Bolden
best look, but I can also say this. It is very hard to follow up with an iconic red carpet person, and I feel like that will be in the. The holy trinity for her dresses.
Morgan Stewart
100% agreed. We're looking at 100% the color. Also, I don't feel like she's. I've seen it. It was glamor. It was fashion. I love the bodice. I love that she was covered. The hair being that long, the whole look. This was truly okay, I'm obsessed with you. Get on a plane. I'll see you when you're back.
Jason Bolden
All right, I'm off the plane. I just landed.
Morgan Stewart
Oh, you're. Oh, you're in LA already.
Jason Bolden
I landed? Yes.
Morgan Stewart
He's like, I.
Jason Bolden
Dinner later?
Morgan Stewart
Yes. Goodbye. Love you. Bye. Bye. Guys, here's the thing. If you're gonna FaceTime a stylist who had 12 people at the Met and they answer on the tarmac. That's how you know you have good friends. I did not tell him I was gonna call him. So he's been dressing Nicole for a bit. Obviously, this is the best Nicole's ever looked. Minus the one dress. Dior Galliano on the carpet with Tom Cruise a million gazillion years ago. That is iconic. Nicole forever. And the fact that we're pointing out the. I think he's referring to the camellias, but you can see that they are not. Anyway, Nicole looked amazing. She was definitely one of my tops. Let's talk about Nicholas Holt. It's our first man. Do you want to. Do you want to gag on the mic? It's fun. Insane guys. Nicholas Holt in custom Prada full leather. I don't even know what you want me to say about it. It. It. No, no, no. We're watching the video. It's. Everyone's hands are up. The women in the. Brendan's the only one keeping together. All the women. They're literally contemplating their life choices. It's. It's. I am first of all, always cold. I want to take every piece of clothing off right now. It's crazy. And I have a hot ass husband. But this. He did it well. And it's cool. It's not too much. I hate. Let's get. Let's get a still shot side by side. Let's just look. Let's just look one more time. Yeah, I'd pay his bills. I'd pay his bills. It's crazy. And you know what I like about it? It's fashion. I don't even know what I'm saying. It's fashion. It's fashion, but when the guys do too much and it becomes theatrical and so far out of their comfort zone, it doesn't work. So keeping a guy cool in line. We gotta change the photo of Nicholas Holt. I can't look at it anymore. It's crazy. Jason did Nicholas Hoult. I mean, he's literally been prepping for this for 100 fucking months. Should we talk about Julianne Moore? Bottega Veneta, Inspired by the Madame X portrait, who also Lauren Sanchez, which we'll get into. Also inspired by Madame X. I will say Lauren looked chic. She looked for her. Kim is not into it. She did look chic. The navy looked good. She did feel. When she walked on the carpet, she felt a little stiff, obviously. I don't know what that was about. I thought it was one of her better looks, you know? But let's talk about Julianne Moore. Julianne Moore is a movie star. She's a movie star. She always looks intelligent, put together, beautiful. She does not age, but always looks age appropriate, if that makes sense. She always looks good. Her red lip never looks performative. It always looks like it is the right choice. This is very elegant, and I thought it was the right choice for her. Like, what else could she have worn, right? Like, I thought it really served her well. I thought it was pretty beautiful. I'm into it. Did you guys like it? Kind of.
Cody Fisher
I really liked it. I love Julia Moore. I also. This is another thing where I'm like to go with the Morgan school of thought. Like, focus on the earrings. You don't need a necklace, because then. No, you don't want to still focus from that neckline, which is so pretty.
Morgan Stewart
Yeah, I think it was really beautiful. Kim, you're not excited about this one. It's just fine for you.
Kim Cohen
Yeah. I think it's a beautiful gown on a beautiful person. And I think that if you understand art history, it hits the theme for you.
Morgan Stewart
That is true, by the way. All the art historians are like, oh, my God, this is their night.
Kim Cohen
Right?
Morgan Stewart
This is their night. Because I did not know this. I obviously had to do some research. But Madame X's very famous portrait painted by John Singer Sargent. We know he's a Capricorn. I googled him. His birthday's January 12th. My mom's the 11th. I went deep into it. He was gay friends with Oscar Wilde. Like, don't think I didn't read all night last night. Okay. And also, the painting was considered extremely scandalous because. So the reason it's an ode to the portrait is that there's one sleeve kind of falling off the shoulders as I move this piece of hair. And that, in the actual portrait, happened by accident and for the time was considered to be extremely scandalous. And if you pull this. This image up, which you guys will have to at home, because I don't know if we're gonna superimpose something, but maybe we will. This is exactly what Lauren's dress was. She did a. It wasn't an ode to. I mean, it was the perfect match. I thought that was intentional. I thought that was smart. I thought it was a good dress for Lauren. I really did. I mean, some of her other looks, I mean, she's always very bodycon. She's always wearing Schiaparelli. Schiaparelli did Lauren's dress. Bottega did, um. What the.
Kim Cohen
Julianne.
Morgan Stewart
Julianne Moore. Right. That's how my brain can't go much further back. It's crazy. So I thought it was good. I liked it. Okay. Who else have we not talked about? I feel like there's so many people. Oh, hello. Emma Chamberlain. Okay. Emma Chamberlain. Custom mugler inspired by Vincent van Gogh. Garden of Arles, hopefully. That's how you say it. She looked out of control. The dress was so gorgeous. Looked like it was hand painted. The way she was standing, everything about the dress. Absolutely no notes. The she looked my birthday twin. My May 22 Gemini mind. She looked so fucking cool. So fucking fashion. The dress was gorgeous. This is couture. I mean, unbelievable. The colors, the working of everything. I mean, the way she held her arms out. Like very few people can hit it and she fucking hit it. Can we zoom in? I want to stare at it a little longer. Is that possible? Is that really annoying of me? Oh, I'm making you Google again. It's fine. She looked amazing.
Kim Cohen
Did you like ASAP's thing?
Morgan Stewart
I did like ASAP. I mean, ASAP, to me, guys were just ASAP is like a fashion girly. Like, he always looks good. He always looks on theme. He always. He has an understanding of fashion. Like, ASAP never disappoints me. I want to talk about Connor's story. Okay. Connor's story. To me, first of all, Connor's story in heated rivalry was the breakout star. I thought he was unbelievable. The body, the face, the acting. Like he fucking nailed that that entire series. Hudson was my, like, less favorite of the two. Hudson has started. He's like started to grow on me more in recent weeks. There's just something about him that like, there's like a star quality that you can't ignore. What I want to say about Connor, he's now signed to ysl. The outfit he wore to his first met last night looked like he wore to an after party for gq. Like, this is not what you need to be wearing. It's. First of all, it's expected. It's really lackluster. We've seen this silhouette. We've seen this, like, it's very ready to wear there's nothing that's that important about it. And as somebody who's like, like one of our up and coming stars, I just wish that we could have even done like, I prefer it with the jacket, but it's just sort of like this is on YSL's rack. He's a part of the YSL house. We're gonna put him in this. And I would have liked to him even be in a like white button down, like a proper double breasted suit and just gone more classic. Didn't you feel like it was after party vibes?
Kim Cohen
I felt like it was daytime vibes.
Morgan Stewart
It was just
Kim Cohen
so that's what the top makes me feel. I do like the jacket.
Morgan Stewart
Yeah, the jacket saves it a bit.
Kim Cohen
But Hudson took a bigger risk. He took a swing and maybe kind of missed for some people.
Morgan Stewart
I didn't love Hudson's look. Again, like when the guys get too performative, I unders. I understand. And I appreciate when men want to try things and step outside of the box and not sort of be the classic suit, tie, bow tie, whatever look you're going for. But there's a way to do it that's not so eclectic and so sort of out of the box for you. And. And because it very much looks like someone told Hudson to wear this. Not. Hudson was like, oh, this is cool. It was like, you're going to the Met, you need to make a splash. He made a splash. I don't know if it was the right splash. I was gonna wait till the end, but I'm gonna go into Beyonce now. Beyonce's our queen. I'm not even saying that cause I'm scared. But I truly am a huge fan of Beyonce. It's her first met in 10 years. She's not been to the Met in 10 years. She was a co chair. Whispers Some people are saying it's cause she's dropping Act 3. I don't know. To be confirmed, I hated her. Look. I can't sit here. And I didn't like the headpiece. I didn't like the bottom piece. I didn't like the top piece. I didn't like the middle piece. I didn't like any of it. I didn't like those feathers. I. She's queen. But for some reason Olivier Rousting designed it. Formerly of Balmain. And I don't know how we landed here. And I just wish it was not what it was. And I will say that every time I have brought up Beyonce, whether that be last night or today. Everyone says what Blue Ivy slayed. She slayed. She looked fresh. She looked fun. She looked age appropriate. She looked gorgeous. I mean, look at her. This girl is turning into, like, such a gorgeous young woman. She seems like a really nice girl. I feel like her parents have done a good job with her. Like, she's in line. Like, there's parents that are involved in this girl's upbringing, which you can clearly see. First of all, I can't believe how big she is. I don't know. Beyonce, for me, really was a miss, but I guess it doesn't really matter. It's like, it doesn't fucking matter. If Beyonce wears a bad outfit, then great. Who gives a flank fuck, you know what I mean? She's still fucking Beyonce. That's the truth of the matter. I really didn't like the feathers, though, and I just want to hit that point. Okay. Another girly, Gracie Abrams, who I loved last night and almost forgot to talk about, but Kim reminded me. Custom Chanel. I hope it's custom, because I don't know if it is custom. I thought she looked again that 18th century. She looks like a piece of art. The embellishments, the color, the fit of the dress, everything about it made sense. It was the right statement. She looked really gorgeous. Like, there's not much else you can say. There was a lot of, like, sleepy hits. I feel like, on the carpet last night, like, you really have to go back and take a look at, like, who was there and who wore what. Usually you have, like, a feeling, an overview of the whole evening, and there's like, two that. That stand out. But when you go through the list of people, there were so many good people. Gracie being one of them. Another girly that I loved yesterday. And Kim reminded me of Paloma Alesser. Holy. Beautiful. She looked so gorgeous. I loved the dress. And you said this. I'm not gonna steal your words. Ethereal. It felt like ethereal. I love the shoes. The texture of the shoe. It's. What was it? What was the fact about the dress
Kim Cohen
that you had that it's a bunch of dresses stitched together from the 1920s to the 1940s.
Morgan Stewart
Gorgeous, I believe. Thoughtful. I mean, her face is gorgeous. The dress reminds me of, like, that mid-90s 90s vibe in a way. Like those old sort of floral patterns from that time. Obviously, it's going back much further than that. I thought that was a really special dress. It looks like it's painted on her. So again, within theme, Hunter Schaefer. Okay. Hunter Schaeffer, Custom prada. I liked it. I don't love it. It's interesting. It definitely has a point of view. It's not sort of just thrown together haphazardly. I just don't think it was, like, my favorite. But she also. Again, you have to go different routes if you're Hunter Schaeffer. Because she has hit it out of the park so many times. She shows up as a proper fashion girl. She takes risks. She changes it up. Everything looks incredible on her. So I do like this. No, I like it. I like it. I thought it was cool. Do you like it? I do.
Kim Cohen
I think at first, I wasn't convinced about the bow, but then you look at the art piece side by side, and she knocked it out of the park.
Morgan Stewart
You need it. It's necessary.
Kim Cohen
It's necessary for the art.
Morgan Stewart
And also, she's clearly comfortable and had fun. I'm into Hunter Schaeffer. Okay. Enochi Custom Balenciaga makeup artist, Sheikha Daly. So it's. What is. It literally looks like there are tears, like, streaming down her face. It is. You guys, I. First of all, I've never seen anybody with a face like this. But the makeup execution is so incredible. The tear, I mean, crazy. I mean, true artistry, Right. To be able to achieve something like that, have it stay in place, have it look like there are literal tears down your face that look 3D. Cause do you remember Kim did tears many years ago, and they were kind of flat to the face. These are, like, literally looks like she was crying on the way in. The outfit was insane. The diamonds, the necklace and the earrings, the cape. I mean, this is how you show up to the Met. To me, this embodies everything fashionable about the Met, and I love that it's black. Do you know what I mean? Like, they could have gone so many. They could have gone into a bright color. Yeah. It's kind of crazy that she looks like that.
Kim Cohen
I think they're referencing the Black Madonna. Mm.
Morgan Stewart
Okay. Well, there you go. That's the right girl to do that, right?
Kim Cohen
Mm.
Morgan Stewart
I mean, forget it. Lights out. Okay. The person that I wanna end on that I almost forgot to talk about again. Doja Cat. I loved. Loved Doja Cat's dress. I would wear that dress. I thought she looked elegant. I thought she looked beautiful. I loved the color on her. I loved the latex. I thought the way it draped was gorgeous. Obviously, in custom ysl I and fun fact, her shoes were actually painted to, like, have it, like, look like actual skin. So there's, like, moles on the shoes. Like, it was really thoughtful. Honestly, before I saw Kris Jenner, she might have rivaled my best dress. Not the most interesting, but just the way it came together for her, I thought was so beautiful. And I was like, do I want to end on Madonna or do I want to end on Doja Cat? And we're going to stick with Doja Cat. I die for Doja Cat. And I love, duh. Her look. I actually know head of VIP and press. Press and influence, not VIP Annie, who works at ysl. I texted her last night. I said, I'm not even ready to talk about Doja Cat. I'm not ready to talk about it. Looks so good. Okay. Yay. Let us know who you guys liked. I want to know in the comments. Who was your favorite? Who did you hate? Who do you agree with me on? Who do you disagree with me on? Tell me where I got it wrong. Tell me where I got it right. Love doing an emergency episode. Okay, bye, guys. Bye.

The Morgan Stewart Show — Emergency Met Gala Episode! (May 6, 2026)
Morgan Stewart returns for an impromptu “emergency” episode dedicated entirely to the 2026 Met Gala, bringing unfiltered, brutally honest, and sometimes hilarious takes on the night’s red carpet. Joined by her friends and creative colleagues (Kim Cohen, Jessica, Cody Fisher, Brendan Burns, Jason Bolden), Morgan breaks down who wowed, who fell flat, and why some viral moments mattered more than others. This episode is packed with sharp fashion commentary, nuanced discussions about artistic intent, and classic Morgan wit. It’s a no-BS, inside-out look at the absurd and high-stakes world of Met Gala fashion.
“It is a theme, but is also a bit ambiguous and is up to interpretation... a lot of people just wore dresses that had nothing to do with anything.” (08:01)
“Kris to me, felt like she was wearing something that Mary Kate Olsen would wear fully. Felt like true fashion... This is maybe her best look ever in the time that we’ve known Kris Jenner, so I have to give that shout.” (03:00–04:25)
“This is the first time I wasn’t riding with it... I really fucking hate it. I hate to say that, but I really did not like it.” (05:10)
“Kylie ate the fuck down... Hands down the best she’s ever looked... Everything was so intentional and executed so perfectly.” (06:09)
“Kendall looked as close to perfection as you possibly could have... The shot of the night... when she fluffed up the dress to have it look like wings” (07:40)
“I hated Anne’s dress... Something about this dress felt very heavy, overly just... Not embellished, but just patterned.” (09:28)
“She understood the assignment. Yes, but was it taking a risk? No.” (09:54)
“It is pretty... I think it’s pretty shameless that she showed up after they just had settled... It’s giving like unicorns, rainbows and butterflies and those, those cookies when we were kids dipped in the sprinkles, the, the animal crackers.” (11:00–12:10)
“The dress was lackluster for me and I have to say I did not like the bloomers underneath... But again, she’s so gorgeous. If Gigi would have worn Kendall’s dress, the Met would have shut the fuck down.” (13:10–14:11)
“She has such taste, and I think that she is a proper muse for a lot of stylists.” (15:20)
“I thought it was pretty ethereal. I thought it was beautiful... you can tell who truly has input in what they’re wearing.” (15:35)
“If you try to pair a dress with a silver, silver or gold shoe as a neutral, I want to fucking kill myself. You cannot. It does. No, stop it. Don’t do it... The shoe has to match or it has to go completely against the grain, but it has to feel like it was thought of.” (16:28)
“Everything she’s done with all of this work just destroyed with that shoe... That shoe should not have been the fucking shoe that she wore with the custom Dior dress.” (18:38)
“Custom Stella McCartney. I don’t think this was the move... when you rely too much on a gimmick for something like this... this fell short.” (21:00)
“It was funny as fuck at first... thought it was Billie Eilish.” (22:53–23:02)
“The dress really fell flat... The dress felt like you wear it to a wedding in Monaco... with a guy you’re newly dating and you don’t know anyone.” (25:20–25:55)
