Fashionista approved! This is the look that convinced Anna Wintour that Cardi B is 'chic'
Anna Wintour is not easy to impress – but the Bodak Yellow star did just that with this surprising dress
If you are wondering, yes, fashion queen Anna Wintour is silently judging you (well, your outfit anyway!) And when it comes to Cardi B, the Vogue doyenne may not have been convinced of the Bodak Yellow star's style icon status, but there was a single fashion moment that won Ms Wintour completely over. "I was completely in awe of the stunning dress that Cardi B wore to the Met [Gala] this year. She looked unbelievable," the global fashionista revealed in an interview for her Go Ask Anna video series.
The theme of the 2019 Met Gala was "camp" and Cardi pulled out all the stops with her over the top look that earned accolades from fashion critics the world over.
