Fashion’s biggest night has arrived! The 2023 Met Gala has taken over the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, and your favorite music stars are already hitting the red carpet.
The elite event, which raises money for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute each year, is known to be a star-studded affair with one of the city’s most in-demand tickets. So who got the call this year to walk up the iconic carpeted stairs?
Pop star Dua Lipa, this year’s co-chair, paid homage to Karl Lagerfeld — the late fashion designer whose work is the theme of Monday’s gala — by wearing one of his Chanel Haute Couture bridal gowns, which was originally modeled by Lagerfeld’s longtime muse Claudia Schiffer at the brand’s fall/winter 1992 show.
Hip-hop rookie Ice Spice made her ice-cold debut at the Met Gala, trading her trademark red curls for long, straight tresses to complement her sleek white gown.
Singer Rita Ora made her mark with a sheer-accented black gown with an unbelievably long train that made a stunning statement on the coveted stairs.
The stars will keep coming, so stick with Billboard.com — and Billboard‘s social channels, where we’re set up on the famed stairs — to follow along with all the night’s fashion.
