Met 2023
Written by Rika C on May 2, 2023
Celebrities stepped out for “fashion’s biggest night out” on what’s considered red carpet royalty! This year the fundraising benefit for New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art chose ‘Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty’ as the theme. The designer and former Chanel, Balmain Fendi creative, passed away in 2019 at age 85.
Doja stepped out wearing a cat make-up look–think Hunger Games meets elegance–and an Oscar De La Renta gown. Lil Nas X left it all on the carpet and a whole lot at home! The rapper pulled up to the Met wearing nothing but silver body paint, gems, pearls, and a thong–both cheeks on full gleaming display. He accessorized with matching claws and a face mask. Jared Leto graced the Met Gala carpet fully dressed as Karl’s cat Choupette–a giant costume featuring white fur and blue eyes.
Teyana Taylor can switch up any look, and for the Met Gala 2023, the singer-actor wore a non-traditional interpretation of a suit.
Her black-and-white fit featured a gloved jacket that looked like a bodysuit covered by a low-rise, floor-length skirt with a small train. Teyana styled her hair in a pixie cut and wore dark sunglasses to complete the look.
