We all know what the first Monday of May brings to our viewing pleasure as we scroll through our Instagram feed for hours, in denial of how the making of such sartorial excellences are even possible and the way our favorite style icons bring these looks to life! Yes, we are talking about most awaited fashion Monday; The Met Gala.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City was buzzing with glamour, art and fashion as we saw celebrities swoon us over as they made their grand appearance on the red carpet. The Met Gala which is otherwise known to be the most fashionable night of the year was a star studded extravaganza where we saw the partygoers strut, shine, and pose in some of the most iconic exhibition spaces at the Met.
This year’s Met Gala consecrated it’s love of fashion, as the theme was set to symbolize “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination.” Fashion’s most memorable night was designed to amalgamate the discourse of religious art through sartorial influences. While the theme inclined to historic Renaissance art, Vogue magazine made sure there was a contemporary element associated to the looks. Celebrities personified their best interpretation of the theme, each alluding to different religious elements and motifs.
From Rihanna, Madonna, Katey Perry, the Kardashians and many, many more, worked their magic as they strutted in their opulent ensemble with over-the-top jewelry – which by no surprise was our favorite part of the night.
