Bed Stuy Represents At Met Gala: Chi Ossé Dons Dior-Inspired Garb
Ossé wore a custom-designed outfit from Advisry, according to Vogue (a publication that knows a tad more about fashion than Patch.)
BEDFORD-STUYVESANT — Chi Ossé represents Bed-Stuy in the streets, at City Hall and, this week, on the swankest red carpet in town.
District 36's City Council rep donned Monday night a custom-designed Advisry ensemble for the 2023 Met Gala, themed these year to honor Karl Lagerfeld.
According to Advisry, the look was inspired by Lagerfeld's first Chanel haute couture collection in 1983.

Said designer Keith Herron in his look notes, "I wanted to approach this look in the same way, referencing early Chanel to set our look apart."
Vogue knows much more about fashion than Patch does (we know, you're stunned) so if you'd like to read more about the look, head on over to their coverage.
But next time Ossé passes legislation, we're on it.
