The highly-anticipated 2023 Met Gala has come to an end, but the internet is still buzzing about the stunning looks that graced the red carpet. This year’s theme was “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty,” honoring the legendary designer who left his mark on the fashion industry with his work for Chanel, Fendi, and his own namesake label.
As always, the event was held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City and raised funds for The Met’s Costume Institute.
Of course, the star-studded event was not just about the exhibition. The red carpet is where celebrities and fashion icons get to show off their best looks, and the Met Gala has seen some of the most memorable and talked-about outfits of the past decade.
This year, guests were asked to dress in tribute to Lagerfeld, resulting in a plethora of custom outfits that paid homage to his iconic designs.
The co-hosts for the evening included Penélope Cruz, Michaela Coel, Roger Federer, Dua Lipa, and Anna Wintour, while the guest list was a mix of top actors, singers, athletes, models, and artists. And now, without further ado, let’s dive into the most show-stopping outfits from the 2023 Met Gala red carpet. You can also re-watch the official livestream here if you missed it!
