Posted: 5/6/14 at 10:09amNPH'S Outfit looks like something a waiter would wear, the cut is interesting, but that's all it's got going for it. It's the pants length that bother me- they are not short enough to look like it is deliberate- they just look too short.

Hey, everybody, stop having fun that other people don't consider fun, okay?
Please stop doing your own things and do other people's things immediately.
Thank you. Now carry on (the way I want you to).

Mea culpa.
No - Sed culpa est tua.

Posted: 5/6/14 at 10:15amWas that addressed to me--or to the people saying Neil and David should stop having fun with their outfits?

It was addressed to everyone, PJ. That's really the only way it makes sense.

Jane--there were some costumey outfits this year too:

Posted: 5/6/14 at 10:26am^ Those costumes fit the people wearing them well and actually look really great- The two of them on the other hand...

Posted: 5/6/14 at 10:52amHow does somebody who isn't a fundamentalist Christian dominionist find NPH's behavior "increasingly abhorrent"?

^ I mean...right???
One of the reasons these outfits don't really work is because the two are such a picture of vanilla gay family in there branding. It just doesn't jibe with who they are (or who we think they are based on their public images).
Plus, I'm worried about Neil's gaunt frame! Girl, don't go for sugar-free Redbull to get you through the performances!!

Posted: 5/6/14 at 10:58amI think the husband looks like somebody from the audience of Spandau Ballet's first tour. Which is NOT a criticism.

I'm not talking about this specific instance only.
I've just grown a strong distaste for him as a personality.
I stand by what I said.

She's wearing a picnic-table umbrella!

Neil and David and the kids love costumes--and not just vanilla ones!

19 things people at the Met ball looked like

"She's wearing a picnic-table umbrella! "
I would say that is a nod to the silhouette of one of Charles James's more famous pieces, the Clover Dress.

Maybe, but the hems on the Clover Dress are not as umbrella-like.
This is what Neil and David looked like a few weeks ago at the Emma Thompson/Bryn Terfel Sweeney Todd at Avery Fisher Hall:
We saw them at intermission and decided to intermission-stalk them. So we pretended to stroll-and-chat while remaining no more than 10 paces behind them. Finally we ran into a friend who had to gush about Emma and we lost the trail.
I'm sorry--does that sound creepy? It was just intermission--we weren't going to follow them home or anything.

Posted: 5/6/14 at 11:28amPJ, I had no idea that was what the MET ball was all about. Still not a fan of there look, but some of the others are stunning.

Do y'all know how expensive those outfits are? I'd like to see YOU turn those down. I think the POINT of the suit is to look un-tailored. They both look great, and judging based on some of the looks from last year (where, clearly, it was the same event) they are hardly out of place. Whether those are pictures from this year, last year, eight years ago or twelve years ago… it's still the MET BALL where the dress code is clearly high fashion that no one seems to appreciate.

The punk theme from last year's Met Ball was fabulously fun...especially when you take into consideration the HIDEOUS dress that awful Kardashian woman was forced to wear.

Posted: 5/6/14 at 11:33amI'm with PJ on this one. Who cares? I frankly don't care for them, and I'm meh about their homogenized rich white gay personas.

Posted: 5/6/14 at 11:46am... An uncouth persona they propagate when NPH goes onto Ellen's show to talk about how, for his birthday, David hid iPads all over the world to give clues for Neil's next destination in a 24-hour international scavenger hunt.
