Met Gala 2023: Fashion, Surprises, and Awkward Moments

Celebrities at the Met Gala paid tribute to Karl Lagerfeld with elaborate trains, floral motifs, and suiting. Jeremy Pope's custom Balmain cape, featuring Lagerfeld's profile, was the most notable train, measuring 10 meters long and requiring over 5,000 meters of silk chiffon and 70 seamstresses. Rihanna closed out the red carpet in a silky white custom Valentino gown with a 5-meter train and 30 camellia flowers. Other notable looks included Jenna Ortega's custom Thom Browne outfit, Glenn Close's sequined Erdem Eau de Nil gown, and Rita Ora and Gigi Hadid's dark and sultry looks.
