Last night the stars were out at the 2021 Met Gala!
So, which celebs understood the assignment?
Let’s get into it!
This year’s Met Gala theme was all about America, with the official theme dubbed, “In
America: A Lexicon Of Fashion” and it’s safe to say American fashion is clearly open
to interpretation, but some celebs absolutely nailed the theme!
And in no particular order, Emma Chamberlain was an early arrival on the red carpet, and
in her gold mini dress and retro makeup, she was giving serious vintage hollywood and Twiggy
vibes.
She slayed in her first ever MET look, and can we please take a look at that glam??
Normani looked like an absolute QUEEN in this gorgeous Valentino ball gown, with perfect
eye-popping glam, which, in her words, could be described as, “Yellow pops on dark skin.
I feel regal.
I feel like a queen!”
We bow down to this queen!
One of the nights biggest showstoppers was Lil Nas X - who gave us not one, not two,
but three Versace looks last night!
That’s right, serving us with his own Lady-Gaga inspired multi-look reveal on the Met steps!
First, he started with a regal robe before changing into a gold armor-type outfit, and
landing on a glittery gold bodysuit.
We don’t exactly know what this has to do with America but we support whatever country
Lil Nas X is reigning over.
Olivia Rodrigo has quickly become a pro at rocking the red carpet, and the Met Gala was
no different.
The first-time Met Gala attendee showed up in a lace bodysuit with a feathered neckline,
and oversized earrings.
She gave us the soft punk rock look, we all deserved!
Looking stunning, happy and healthy and we don’t even need to ask!
Keke Palmer, was one of the hosts for last night’s red carpet coverage.
She was giving off major 70s disco vibes with beautiful Diana Ross style locks, in a floor
length, sparkly gown!
She looked amaze!
Billie Eilish, who also happened to be one of the co-chairs for this year’s Met Gala
also leaned majorly into Hollywood Glam, giving us serious Marilyn Monroe vibes in her blush
gown and short cropped blonde locks.
She looked like an absolute vision!
She told interviewers the Oscar de la Renta dress was inspired by Holiday Barbie.
Rose from Blackpink kept it simple in a perfect little black St. Laurent dress for her Met
Gala debut.
And we are obsessed with her hair and accessories for this look!
Sisters Chloe & Halle absolutely stunned on the red carpet!
They both wore Rodarte and although they both used American Divas as their inspiration,
they showed off their individual style with Chloe serving goddess vibse while Halle paid
homage to legendary singer Tina Turner.
We stan!
This list wouldn’t be a Met Gala list if we didn’t include the one and only Queen
of the Met Gala Rihanna, who of course was fashionably late but as always, making it
worth the wait!
She shut down the carpet in a stunning Balenciaga overcoat and matching hat that only she could
rock like this.
Alongside her boo ASAP Rocky who could also only make a quilt-inspired look look this
cool.
Kendall Jenner basically took our breath away looking like an absolute Hollyood beauty queen,
in this sheer, sparkly Givenchy beaded gown which was a nod to Audrey Hepburn.
And although those are just some of the stand out looks from the night, we still have more
that we absolutely have to mention!
For instance, Barbie Ferreira was a VISION wearing this vintage style 20s beaded gown.
Shawn Mendes wore all black with an open leather jacket, but it was Camila Cabello, who stole
the show right beside him, wearing a purple two piece sequin number.
Mr and Mrs Bieber kept things pretty sleek and simple with Justin wearing a suit from
his own fashion line Drew with some seriously comfy-looking pants, and Hailey in a simple
YSL dress which she also paired with shades for some of their pics.
Yara Shahidi looked like an absolute goddess and effortless beauty in this look.
Megan Fox was a complete show stopper in this red cut out gown with absolute jaw-dropping
glam!
Hailey Steinfeld was almost unrecognizable but in the best way possible in this stunning
fashion forward look that was giving us edgy tinkerbell vibes!
JLo shut the carpet down in her look, but lets be real, does this woman ever not shut
it down??
She is a red carpet pro and we are always so grateful for everything she brings!
Model Iman also must get a mention, because this is the kind of commitment we live for
at the Met gala!
Gigi Hadid was giving us major main character energy in this super glamorous Prada gown
with hair and glam to die for.
And can we please take a moment to appreciate Megan The Stallion’s classic Hollywood starlet
look with the most flawless glam, as always!
People had a lot to say about influencer Addison Rae joining the Met Gala carpet, and while
her look was a little more paired-back than some were expecting, she definitely looked
stunning and turned heads in a vintage 2003 Tom Ford for Gucci dress with a corset top
and completed her red look with a fresh blonde cut.
And if the dress looked familiar, well it’s because her BFF Kourtney Kardashian also rocked
a similar version of it back in 2019...We loved it then and still love it now!
Ugh we could be here all day, and seriously all day, so this is by no means an exhaustive
list of looks - and while there were a lot of celebs that not only understood the assignment
and/ or absolutely slayed - we can’t not mention someone who really had us confused,
and lets just say, still confused and not quite sure how they interpreted the assignment
- but we’re here for the art!
Kim Kardashian - at least that’s who we believe it is - completely shocked everyone
in this head to toe black masked Balenciaga ensemble that looks like it was a page straight
out of Kanye West’s Donda book.
We have so many questions, but perhaps for another day - one things for sure, Kim definitely
knows how to make an entrance!
But like I just said, we could be here all day drooling over the incredible fashion,
