About

Sarah Jessica Parker's Met Gala Hat refers to an ornate headdress the actress wore to the 2015 Metropolitan Museum Costume Institute Gala, for which the theme was "China: Through the Looking Glass." The hat's large and unique shape caused it to quickly be mocked online and spawned many photoshop edits.

Origin

Sarah Jessica Parker attended the Met Gala in 2015 in a dress of her own design (in partnership with H&M) and a custom Philip Treacy headdress. At 5:50 that evening, Twitter user JChiron18 tweeted a photo comparing the headdress to Aku, the villain from television series Samurai Jack, with the text "Who wore it better?" The tweet received 247 retweets and 158 favorites.
