Gigi Hadid in Thom Browne and Chopard

Supermodel Gigi Hadid wore a custom off-the-shoulder white Thom Browne gown. The skirt of the dress made the illusion of a suit jacket. The supposed suit jacket was covered in yellow roses and vines. To complete the look, she wore Chopard jewelry.

Gwendoline Christie in Maison Margiela

“Game of Thrones” and “Wednesday” star Gwendoline Christie wore a custom design by Maison Margiela designer John Galliano inspired by the Spring 2024 Collection. Christie wore a straight neckline and a blood-orange silk down, completing the look with a black silk tulle theatrical coat.

Fresh off her memorable Coachella headline, singer Lana Del Rey returns to the Met Gala for the first time since 2018. Alexander McQueen designer Seán McGirr pulled inspiration from the fall 2006 collection, dressing Lana Del Ray in a corseted gown with bronze bullion thorns encircled in matching tulle.

Ayo Edebiri in Loewe

First-time attendee and “The Bear” breakout star Ayo Edibri dazzled at the gala in a custom Lowew white embroidered halter-neck dress.
