Yes, That's Right, Punk Is Dead (at the Costume Institute Gala)
The eyes of the fashion-conscious and celebrity-obsessed turn this evening to the annual Costume Institute Gala at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art. To accompany the Institute's latest exhibit, "Punk: From Chaos to Couture," the gala's theme this year was punk rock, because what better way to celebrate the history of punk music than by inviting millionaires to compliment one another at an exclusive party.
Pictured above is noted punk Ivanka Trump, whose husband, Jared Kushner, real-estate scion, New York Observer publisher, and radical anarchist, waits quietly behind her, pondering revolt.
Update: Via Twitter, a chilling gallery.
