It’s been over a week since we last saw our favourite celebs all decked up for the Met Gala. The grand event is not new to our ears. Being one of the most anticipated events of the year that takes place in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, the Met Gala and its red carpet kept us excited the entire week.
In order to pay tribute to the world renowned late designer Karl Lagerfeld, the 2023 Met Gala has the theme ‘Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty’ where those who were appearing in the event were to encapsulate the element of the great designer.
Though each and every celeb dropped something pleasurable to our eyes, here are a few iconic looks that we absolutely loved:
- Dua Lipa
Dua Lipa wore a Chanel ball gown in white and black which was similar to the design which Claudia Schiffer wore in the Autumn Winter 1992 couture collection. The singer’s look was put together by the celebrity stylist Lorenzo Posocco while her hair and makeup was done by Paul Hamlin and Pat McGrath, respectively.
