The 2023 Met Gala red carpet has commenced at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, with the best-dressed celebrities paying homage to this year’s theme celebrating Karl Lagerfeld’s legacy. Every year on the first Monday in May, it brings together the biggest names in fashion, entertainment, and art for a night of glamorous celebration. And iconic fashion moments.
This year’s theme and dress code “In Honour of Karl”, celebrities are celebrating the life, work and legacy of Karl Lagerfeld. Best known for his role as creative director at French fashion label Chanel since 1983, he was also the creative director of Italian fur and leather goods fashion house Fendi, as well as his own eponymous fashion label.
With co-chairs Dua Lipa, Michaela Coel, Penelope Cruz, and Roger Federer assisting Vogue’s Anna Wintour in hosting the 2023 Met Gala, the first looks to see run the gamut, featuring popular trends such as cutouts, catsuits, and exaggerated leg slits, as well as more classical elements that Lagerfeld both appreciated through his own wardrobe and orchestrated into his creative work. Tweed, expert tailoring, a black-and-white colour palette, and accessories such as gloves are just a few notes to call out.
We’re expecting some pretty jaw-dropping moments, especially from celebrities that constantly take our breath away on these monumental steps, like Kim Kardashian and Rihanna.
