2024 Met Gala-Best Dressed
The first Monday in May is my favorite day in May.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art holds it’s annual gala on this day and celebrities and models ascend the museums’ steps in fantastical outfits for the sake of art.
This year’s exhibition, “Sleeping Beauty, Reawakening Fashion,” explores how technology can infuse new life into fashion.
The theme of the gala, however, was “The Garden of Time” and guests embraced this dress code with flowers, feathers, fringe and anything in between.
Not all guests nailed the dress code but there were many standouts. Lana del Rey appeared in an Alexander Mqueen dress from the Fall/Winter 06 collection and Zendaya walked the carpet in two distinct looks. The hair and makeup teams should be recognized for their work this year as beauty looks were outstanding.
My favorite looks from the 2024 Met Gala are below.
Sydney Sweeney in Miu Miu- She literally looks like a princess. I’m not sure I love the wig but the color of her dress matches the color her eyes and her accessories are amazing. It’s also really refreshing to not see so much of this woman’s skin for a change!
Kendall Jenner in vintage Givenchy (designed by Alexander McQueen)-this dress is so on theme and so stunning. I love the sculptural neckline, the deep v, the tassels on the sleeves; everything about this look is beautiful.
Elle Fanning in Balmain- She looks like a Grecian ice sculpture and I am here for it.
Gigi Hadid in Thom Browne- This dress and beautiful and all but I think what really makes this look stand out is the gorgeous makeup and retro bob. I want this lipstick shade!
Greta Lee in Loewe- She understood the assignment.
Iris Law in Versace- I’m not usually a Versace girl but I think this dress is beautiful and perfect for the theme of the evening.
Leah Michele in Rodarte- A pregnant princess; what would Disney say? She looks stunning and I love this look for her and this theme.
Maria Sharapova in Atelier Prabal Gurung- Of course the color is reminiscent of a tennis ball, which is totally appropriate here, but the flowered sleeves and hair accessories really take this look off the court and onto the museum steps.
Michelle Williams in Chanel- She never lets me down. Her style is impeccable.
