We are just hours away from one of the major fashion events – Met Gala 2025. this year its regular guest, Naomi Campbell, will not be among the guests. And it’s not without scandal.
Naomi had prepared herself in advance for the questions that her absence would cause. After all, she has been an invariable participant of Met Gala for more than 20 years. Therefore, the supermodel recorded a video in which she said that she was very tired of preparing for this super-responsible event and gives way to young colleagues.
But people close to the world of high fashion say that it’s not about fatigue. Naomi does not want to see the hostess of the ball herself – Anna Wintour. She has not forgiven Campbell’s public insult.
“Naomi shot herself in the foot. You can’t throw shade at a fashion queen and expect to walk her red carpet. Anna doesn’t forget or forgive. That’s for a reason. If Anna wants you to leave, you leave. It’s as simple as that,” the interlocutor told The Sun.
Recall, Naomi was supposed to receive the award “Fashion Icon” from the hands of Anna Wintour, but was late. As a result, the woman simply left the stage, and the prize Campbell was presented by the editor-in-chief of Harper’s Bazaar, Samira Nasr. In her grateful speech Naomi unflatteringly remembered Anna Wintour. By the way, thanks to Wintour Naomi Campbell has graced the cover of Vogue as many as 66 times. I wonder if it will happen even one more time.
