The fashion star also slammed Wintour for choosing to celebrate late designer Karl Lagerfeld at this year's event, saying he was someone who 'upheld supremacy and imperialism ideals' To that end, Julia wants to see big-name stars and 'nepo babies' like Lila Moss - who attended this year's event with her supermodel mother Kate - replaced on the Met Gala red carpet by designers and artists, whose work she believes deserves to be celebrated at such a prestigious occasion.

Julia questioned, adding that Anna's fashion publication has become more about 'commerce than art'.

Speaking about the theme, Julia voiced her outrage over the choice, blasting the late designer as someone who 'upheld supremacy and imperialism ideals'.ĭuring his tenure at Chanel, Lagerfeld was accused of making several misogynistic, Islamophobic and racist comments.
The theme at this years event was: 'Karl Lagerfeld-A Line In Fashion', in honor of the controversial designer who helmed Chanel and Fendi for more than 50 years. On Monday night, stars from across fashion, music, art and entertainment gathered in New York to attend the glitzy soiree at the Metropolitan Museum. 'It's about politics, privilege, who your parents are and how much money you make.' 'If it was about fashion I'd be there but it's not,' she went on.
