Linda Evangelista at Met Gala 2024

Linda Evangelista made her return to Met Gala for the first time since 2015’s China Through the Looking Glass Theme party. Evangelista for the grand fashion event chose to don one of her favorite labels and tapped Khaite designer Catherine Holstein to do the honors putting together an ensemble for outing for the night. The Super only request was no black for the “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion,” theme.

“The one thing I really wanted to do was push myself out of black, and that’s what we’ve done.”

Catherine and Evangelista crafted an ethereal and elegant piece befitting the Gala’s theme with an organic silk gazer draped over Evangelista’s silhouette: “It’s so dreamy and light–it’s light like a cloud,” Evangelista says. I feel so comfortable in it, and I’m really, really, really happy.”

Holstein and Evangelista capped off the look with green tourmaline earrings specially crafted for the event containing 91 carats of tourmaline and diamonds, fashioned in 18 karat fair-mined gold. Yet the jeweler’s main inspiration came from the eyes Evangelista herself:

“Linda’s eyes are so special–their beauty is really unmatched, she says. I looked to take a cue from her eye color and crate an ‘unmatched’ pair of earrings: one set of impossibly blue stones like her eyes and one set of radiant green stones that link back to nature.”

Happy Birthday Karmen Pedaru

Karmen Pedaru is a huge influence and she’s the first top model that I came across years ago that helped me appreciate and understand just how amazing top fashion models are. Her modeling was like hearing Nirvana for the first time as a teenager forever transformed music for me. She’s an incredible person and a genuine soul through and through. And I couldn’t be happier with all the success with her pyjama brand. She’s more of star and stellar human being than she’ll ever know. Wishing Karmen Pedaru the happiest of birthdays and an infinite love.

You’re a number one
and a superstar
You’re a number one
our superstar

— Superstar by Mega City Four

If I had to lose a mile
If I had to touch feeling
I would lose my soul
The way I do
I don’t have to think
I only have to do it
The results are always perfect
But that’s old news
Would you like to hear my voice sprinkled with emotion?
Invented at your birth

I can’t see the end of me
My whole expanse, I cannot see
Formulate infinity
Store it deep inside me

Oh, Me by Nirvana

Christy Turlington Burns in all her brilliance alongside megastar Anok Yai grace the May 2024 issue of Harper’s Bazaar U.S. Leah Chenikoff catches up with Christy about the heyday of the supermodel, her relationship with fashion and modeling, her latest non-profit work for mothers and families, and the influence her very own mother had on her and navigating her new phase in life.

“I’m a shy person, actually,” Turlington Burns admits. “I like a quiet set. If I hear any dance music or techno music, I want to flee. I feel it in my bones, like, ugh,” she says, her face wrinkling at the thought.
