September 14, 2021 at 03:21AM Sisters who sing together also style together, and Chloe and Halle are crystal-covered proof that some looks are even better in pairs. While attending their first Met Gala on Monday, the sisters supported another set of siblings - Kate and Laura Mulleavy - by wearing complementary Rodarte outfits with V necklines and figure-hugging bodices. Inspired by classic Hollywood sirens like Marilyn Monroe and Grace Kelly, Chloe - who wowed us with her “Have Mercy” performance at the MTV VMAs on Sunday - wore a flowing white gown with a thigh-high slit and a cape so dramatic it belongs on the back of a wedding gown. In contrast, Halle’s sheer look was inspired by Tina Turner’s love for sparkling bodysuits on stage and was decked out in glittering pink fringe from every angle. The sisters also tied their looks…

September 14, 2021 at 03:20AM Simone Biles shone bright like the star she is at her first-ever Met Gala - and showed off her superhuman strength, too! The gymnast wore an incredibly detailed two-piece outfit custom-designed by Area and Athleta, consisting of a star-patterned turtleneck bodysuit layered under a glimmering, jewel-encrusted gown. She amped up the glamor yet another notch when accessorizing, opting for Giuseppe Zanotti heels, multiple rings, celestial hair clips, and dangly earrings. While explaining to red carpet host Keke Palmer that she was proud to be “representing Black girl magic” at the ball, Simone casually dropped that her dress weighed - wait for it - 88 freakin’ pounds. Carrying that masterpiece around is a workout in and of itself! Read ahead to see the GOAT in all her glory at the Met Gala. Related: Every Look From the 2021 Met…

September 14, 2021 at 03:10AM Olivia Rodrigo is continuing her glamorous style streak! After stunning in a coral-magenta gown by Atelier Versace on the VMAs red carpet the night prior, she arrived at Monday night’s Met Gala wearing a bold Saint Laurent outfit. Rocking a feathery sheer lace catsuit, the singer surprised us yet again for her first Met ever. Honoring Olivia’s love for American punk music, the top of her one-piece was covered in feathers, while the bottom was a little more daring, revealing tight lace pants. She added large, dangly diamond earrings and black platform heels to complete the outfit. See more photos of the singer’s Met Gala debut ahead.

September 14, 2021 at 03:06AM Zoë Kravitz. That’s all. While the 2021 Met Gala red carpet was filled with stunning gowns and unique accessories for the “In America: A Lexicon of Fashion” theme, Zoë simply brought pure hotness to Manhattan in a Saint Laurent naked diamond dress. The see-through silhouette - something that literally only Zoë could pull off - was made entirely of crystal caging adjoined by the YSL logo, with nothing underneath. The actress looked like a goddess as she posed for photos in the crystallized mesh dress. While we’ll be staring at Zoë’s red carpet photos with our jaws agape for the unforeseeable future, she’s got a fun night ahead. Rumored boyfriend Channing Tatum was spotted on the red carpet in a Versace tuxedo earlier in the evening, and we can’t wait to see if they party together after the…

September 14, 2021 at 02:36AM Talented Pose actress, singer, and history-making Emmy nominee Michaela Jaé, aka Mj Rodriguez, knows how to work a red carpet, but that’s nothing new. Stunning the 2021 Met Gala in an edgy Victorian look? Now, that’s new. The actress arrived to fashion’s biggest night dressed in a Thom Browne suit and Ana Khouri jewelry looking like she just walked out of a painting from the past. Making the most of the American Independence theme, Mj marked the comeback of style, glamour, and of course, the Met, by wearing nothing less than an eye-catching button-down that featured pleating along with balloon-like sleeves and a tight corset. To complete her look, the star flaunted bright red nails that matched her lipstick, making the whole outfit cohesive, chic, and made for the history books. Keep reading to see her stunning outfit,…

September 14, 2021 at 02:34AM Normani showed up on the 2021 Met Gala red carpet with the utmost confidence in her voluminous gown. Designed by Pierpaolo Piccioli of Valentino, the look came in the loveliest yellow tint of chartreuse, which the talented singer and dancer was quick to call out when Keke Palmer complimented her on the look for Vogue’s live stream. “Yellow pops on dark skin. I feel regal. I feel like a queen,” Normani said of the dress she calls an ode to Black girl excellence. Complete with shapely poufed sleeves, a plunging neckline played up by her gemstone pendant necklace, and teardrop diamond studs (really, what more could she need?), Normani drew attention to the design’s gathered cinch at the waist. Ahead, see every angle of the stunning creation. And yes, BTW, it does have pockets! Continue Reading… Author Sarah…

September 14, 2021 at 02:04AM Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez made quite the debut at Monday night’s Met Gala! On first glance, the congresswoman appeared to be wearing a gorgeous off-the-shoulder white gown with a tulle train, but the second she turned around, we saw her iconic political statement: “Tax the Rich” plastered across the back of the dress in bright red lettering. It’s not lost on us that AOC chose the statement Brother Vellies look for one of fashion’s most extravagant, glamorous nights. As Aurora James so perfectly said, “If you’re going to come somewhere like the Met Gala and you’re a congresswoman, you expect nothing less.” Ocasio-Cortez completed the outfit with red heels with flowers, as well as a matching “tax the rich” bag. Ahead, see the look from the front and back. Continue Reading… Author Yerin Kim | citywomen.co Selected by CWC

September 14, 2021 at 01:58AM The 2021 Met Gala theme may have been a celebration of American fashion, but it appears as though Lil Nas X garnered inspiration from Russian nesting dolls when piecing together his looks for the night. The “Industry Baby” singer wore not one but three outfits custom-designed by Versace, each layered over one another à la the aforementioned dolls. He arrived at the Metropolitan Museum of Art looking like absolute royalty in a billowing, champagne-colored cape, and mere moments later, two men in suits helped him shed the outer layer to reveal a shiny gold suit of armor, complete with a six-pack, natch. Last, but most certainly not least, Lil Nas X’s grand finale look was an intricately beaded bodysuit that zipped up the front and made him look like a sultry superhero.

September 14, 2021 at 01:53AM When it came to the 2021 Met Gala, Ciara understood the assignment and she ran with it … she ran with it right into the end zone. On Monday night, the stunning singer and mom-of-three stepped out on the red carpet wearing a jersey dress by designer Peter Dundas to resemble none other than her husband Russell Wilson’s NFL jersey. The lime green sequined dress was inspired by the Seattle Seahawks quarterback’s number 3 jersey. With the theme of the Met Gala being “In America: A Lexicon of Fashion,” Ciara rocked a football-shaped purse and Russell’s 2013 Super Bowl ring - because there is nothing more American than football! During her red carpet interview with Keke Palmer for Vogue, Ciara said that she and Peter were inspired by Geoffrey Beene’s iconic football jersey dresses from the late 1960s.…

September 14, 2021 at 01:50AM After a yearlong hiatus, the 2021 Met Gala is back with all the allure. The theme, “In America: The Lexicon of Fashion,” invites guests to interpret what it means to be an American through their looks. All the celebrities, media personalities, and influential figures in attendance have a unique chance to uplift the communities they identify with. In today’s times, this call for individual expression and togetherness couldn’t resonate more. It then feels fitting to expect a diverse range of designers showcased on the red carpet. Black designers are having a big night, and I honestly love to see it. They have long set trends and influenced mainstream ways of dressing, and this recognition is long overdue. We’ve been keeping track of the guests wearing Black designs, so scroll on for the running list. Related: Every Look From…
