Sarah Jessica Parker Wearing Christopher John Rogers at the 2022 Met Gala
Parker absolutely nailed the "Gilded Glamour" theme with this Christopher John Rogers checkered gown inspired by Elizabeth Hobbs Keckley. Keckley was the first Black female fashion designer at the White House, though she is often overlooked. Parker worked with Christopher John Rogers to create a timeless piece that was a mix of classic and modern, and chose one of Keckley's designs from the Gilded Age period to highlight the disparity between the glamour of the Gilded Age and the harsh realities many marginalized communities had to face at that time.
