Metgala draws Chinese fashion bloggers' criticism

The theme was "China: Through The Looking Glass". But to Chinese fashion bloggers some of the A-list women who attended the gala at New York City's Metropolitan Museum of Art were barely dressed and most simply missed the event's theme.

Most of the gowns worn on Monday night by models, actresses and other notables had nothing to do with the event's theme or barely connected with it or China's artistic influence on the West, they wrote on China's social media.

Thomas Ye, better known as Gogoboi, used Weibo, China's biggest social media platform, to criticize the "barely-there" Roberto Cavalli gown worn by Kim Kardashian, Katy Perry's low-cut Moschino gown and Madonna's off-the-shoulder gown and cape.
