What I think Red Queen Characters Would Wear to the Met Gala! (Based on pictures I found on Pinterest 💀)

Pt. 3 - More of the Scarlet Guard/People that wouldn't fit into the other posts😭 we still love you boo we promise

Kilorn Warren:

He put on a fake tattoo for this. And then he wanted one after. He is KILLING IT in the blue.

Cameron Cole:

I completely get the argument that she wouldn't want to wear a skirt but

1. I'm imagining her to have those striped tights underneath

2. She would look so good in green

3. You just know she would want to make a statement

4. IT'S GORGEOUS

Gisa Barrow:

I had so many options for Gisa and most of them missed the mark because you know she would win best dressed... This is one of my favorites for her, she would make it big and gorgeous, she would rock it, she would pull off the red with a smile on her face.

Also... Cal, Mare, Shade, Farley, Cameron, and Kilorn were all designed by Gisa so I think we can all agree that SHE DESERVES A PROMOTION.

Pt. 2 - Palace Girlies 💅🏼

Maven Calore:

Um hello???

Iris Cygnet:

I think it's the obvious choice here. (First posted by @king-spite)

Evangeline Samos:

You can disagree. I don't care because her and Elane would BE ABSOLUTELY STUNNING WALKING TOGETHER. Speaking of which...

Elane Haven:

I'm in love with Elane guys

Elara Merandus:

She doesn't deserve an invitation😒 but she demanded one anyway so here you go Elara, get your publicity you absolute bi-

[probablythebooks]

farley i will have to steal your husband if he shows up like that

Not officially submitting these because they obviously aren't my designs but

Mare Barrow:

THE HAAAAIIIRRR 😍😍😍📸📸📸💅🏼💅🏼💅🏼

Cal/Tiberias Calore:

I loooovvveee the idea of this man in a corset looking like an absolute SNACK but couldn't decide which one

Diana Farley:

I like the blue but I don't think it fully gives ✨MET GALA ✨ so I think she would be down for the white

Shade Barrow:

Gisa did good with designing this one...

[probablythebooks]

looks amazing! love the color contrasting

Elane as Helen of Sparta/Troy - COLORED

Disclaimer: I came up with my own theme before the official "kingdom of norta" theme was announced and I had decided on "tragic romanticism" which I'm still attached to tbh so here' more detailed sketch of Elane as Helen of Sparta (more famously known as Helen of Troy). Evangeline would be Paris of course <3 Anyway here's it with color finally (I took inspiration from Mycenaean fashion bc that's when the Iliad is supposed to take place lol)

Elane Haven at the Met Gala stage 2

Disclaimer: I came up with my own theme before the official "kingdom of norta" theme was announced and I had decided on "tragic romanticism" which I'm still attached to tbh so here' more detailed sketch of Elane as Helen of Sparta (more famously known as Helen of Troy). Evangeline would be Paris of course <3 Anyway here's it before I attempt to color it (I took inspiration from Mycenaean fashion bc that's when the Iliad is supposed to take place lol)

@probablythebooks

[probablythebooks]

If I made an outfit in dti would it count as part of the met gala💀

LOL sure as long as it is an original design and not copied

you all can get creative so yes it can be from any game you want if you don't draw or write

[probablythebooks]

gorgeous! Elane would be one of the most excited for the gala in my opinion

Elane Haven at the Met Gala

Disclaimer 1: I came up with my own theme before the official "kingdom of norta" theme was announced and I had decided on "tragic romanticism" which I'm still attached to tbh so here' my basic sketch of Elane as Helen of Sparta (more famously known as Helen of Troy). Evangeline would be Paris of course <3 Disclaimer 2: The silhouette is modern rn but I plan to add Mycenaean patterns to the dress itself and maybe a shawl because from what I've read that was the fashion of the time? Could be wrong tho Disclaimer 3: I don't draw much so I'm afraid of messing it up in the detailing and color so here's it while I'm sure it's decent

Red Queen Met gala 2025

voted in by everyone, our next event will be the Red Queen series met gala!

artists, draw a few characters in what they would be wearing to the met gala. make it dramatic, make it true to character, feel like their personal designer like Gisa Barrow herself

writers, write drabbles of characters in attendance. What's the drama? Who says what? Who trips who on the red carpet? Maybe what will the interviewer ask them and how do they answer?

extra challenges:

duos on the red carpet?

outfit mishaps?

reveals too much in the interview?

what do they sneak in that they're not supposed to have?

headcanons?

now, i have the option to have awards for the met gala as well similar to what i did for the Grammys, but i will leave that up to everyone else if they want them. either way, this is NOT an award centered event. however, i can add them for some extra fun

[probablythebooks]

guess who's baaaackkk 👀

[probablythebooks]

i am honestly really sad about the awards being over... anyone else feeling like they have a Red Queen hangover?

seriously though this was so fun, you all made my first hosting job very memorable, and almost all of you were very sweet.

here's to many more events to come! The met gala is winning so far👀 I'll let everyone take a break and see you all when it's time for our next plan of action!

[probablythebooks]

oh lord i didn't expect to get an award as well, that made me smile! thank you!

i made you an extra one now:
