Fans have slammed Whoopi Goldberg for wearing a layered wrinkled purple dress to the Met Gala

Whoopi Goldberg is a fashion icon and actress who confidently owns her space. While she wore a custom-made wrinkled purple dress to the 2021 Met Gala, many criticised the style, calling it the worst look of the evening.

Whoopi Goldberg is a talk show co-host and Hollywood legend. She is proud to be a part of what she stands for, despite the naysayers. She is a no-nonsense woman who calls out wrongdoings on the “The View” talk show and is not scared of having a different opinion.

Recently, she displayed her bravery at the 2021 Met Gala. Pierpaolo Piccinioli created a Valentino piece for the confident actress.

The head-turning outfit was a magnanimous purple dress fashioned in layers that wrapped an inner green fabric.  The look was completed with a pair of alien-like gloves. Fans couldn’t see her shoes because of the length of the dress.

Many could see that Goldberg chose a natural look for her face. Her glasses were transparent and her black hair was dangling from her neck.

Goldberg, who revealed she would not be able to get into a taxi with the dress, also hinted that despite the hands involved in her getting ready process, it was not all that easy, and she found it hilarious.
