Who Worked It Better?
On the left is Claire Danes in a Zac Posen gown she wore to the Met Gala, and on the right is Cinderella in the Main Street Electrical Parade at Disney World. Yes, that side-by-side picture is very “what it looks like online vs. what you actually get in the mail,” but Cinderella still wins it for me and I’m only saying that because she once waved to me during the Electrical Parade at Disneyland in the late-80s. And nothing made the life of a young gay me like Cinderella waving directly to me. Yes, she was waving directly to me! I wasn’t drunk. I didn’t start drinking until I was at least 11. But anyway…
Zac Posen’s people pretty much lit up the clits of Twitter last night when they tweeted a picture of the fiber optic Cinderella gown they created for the Met Gala. At first, nobody really knew who was wearing it and it was rumored that professional event goer Heidi Klum’s ass was in it. (Side note: Heidi Klum did not go to the Meth Gala. Mark that day in history!) The Heidi rumors didn’t make sense to me, because that dress wasn’t b-hole hugging tight and covered in cut-outs. It was Angela Chase in that dress. To me, it was just a rented Cinderella costume with some lights in it, but the Internet’s retinas oozed out jizz over it, because we’re all just stoned cats who ooooh and awwww over sparkly things:
And is prom season over? Because if not, we’re going to be hearing about a lot of girls electrocuting and burning their asses. So many of them are going to try to recreate this look using a discount wedding dress from David’s Bridal, Christmas lights and a portable generator on a dolly.
