This year’s Met Gala honored the incredible legacy of late fashion designer and icon, Karl Lagerfeld, so it’s no surprise that many of the night’s A-list attendees chose to pay homage to his work with their own ensembles.
Attendees included many of the frequent fliers, like Kim Kardashian, Gigi Hadid and Serena Williams, as well as some new names: the W.N.B.A. star and recent Russian detainee Brittney Griner, the musical artist Doja Cat and Paris Hilton.
Many guests wore black and white or suits and gowns embellished with pearls or flowers — favorite motifs of Mr. Lagerfeld.
Kylie Jenner, Gabrielle Union, Salma Hayek Pinault and Pedro Pascal stood out in hot reds, and Lil Nas X stole the show in silver body paint and not much else.
Bad Bunny went for a full white suit with a stole of fabric flowers that functioned as a train.
Janelle Monáe gave a performance on the carpet, removing her enormous Thom Browne coat to reveal a sheer hoop skirt.
Doja Cat and Jared Leto each paid homage to Choupette, Mr. Lagerfeld’s feline friend.
