As stars arrive at this year’s Met Gala, every beauty and fashion fan is glued to their screens. This year’s theme is “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty” and the dress code du jour is “in honor of Karl.” For beauty, however, anything goes—but we’re starting to sense an emerging trend.
In the beauty realm, the color of the hour is undeniably pink. The best part of this materializing color trend is that stars are taking the classic color and subverting it in the most interesting ways to make their makeup stand out. Stars have pops of neon pink blush, rosy eyelids, and pale pink lips. Keep reading to see the best uses of pink at tonight’s Met Gala.

After 12 long months, it’s finally time again for the Met Gala, which, in addition to supporting one of New York City’s most iconic landmarks, just so happens to be fashion’s biggest night. After two years spent focusing on all things American fashion, 2023’s theme shifted to something more specific: Karl Lagerfeld. The late designer was best known for this work as the longtime Creative Director of Chanel, though his pieces can likewise be found in the archives at Fendi, Chloé, Balmain, and more iconic fashion brands. And for one night—the first Monday in May—they can all be honored in one place.
Whilst some attendees went the more classic route, Kendall Jenner did anything but, arriving on the ivory carpet wearing not pants nor a gown, but a collared, sequin bodysuit worn with nothing but diamond earrings and sky-high platform boots (casual). The supermodel’s custom Marc Jacobs look alludes to Lagerfeld’s signature high-collared shirts, which he famously wore with fingerless, leather gloves, and black sunglasses. Scroll down to see how Jenner brought the no-pants trend to the Met Gala in 2023.
The Met Gala is happening in New York City, and there is certainly no shortage of epic looks from the evening. Tonight’s soirée is all about Karl Lagerfeld, the designer behind some of fashion’s most iconic ensembles, thanks to his time at the helm of Chanel, Balmain, Fendi, Chloé, and more lauded labels. And as one of the models Lagerfeld worked with most in the ’90s (he’s said to have called this model “the free girl of our times,” according to British Vogue), Kate Moss was, of course, in attendance.
Moss, who attended alongside her daughter Lila Moss and Artistic Director of Fendi Kim Jones, went for a silhouette she regularly wore during her modeling days in the ’90s: a simple slip dress. Specifically, the supermodel wore a lingerie-like nightgown from Jones’s S/S 23 couture collection, which was created exclusively for Moss. According to a press release from Fendi, the dress was crafted out of silk satin and decorated with lace meant to represent “a floral motif with a soaring silhouette playing with transparencies for an extreme feminine allure.” Moss added a silk-georgette dressing gown to “evoke a floating, ethereal sensation in movement.”

We’ve already dissected the theme of this year’s Met Gala, and now it’s time to get to the good stuff: the red carpet looks. So far, fashion’s biggest night has not disappointed us in the least—and we still have plenty more looks to see over the course of the evening. Right now, however, I want to shine the spotlight on Margot Robbie, who blew me away with her vintage Chanel look at the Met Gala tonight.
Originally worn by Cindy Crawford on the runway, Robbie wore a Chanel Haute Couture dress from the S/S 93 collection featuring a PVC cutout and gold chain detail at the waist. Scroll down to see Margot Robbie’s 2023 Met Gala dress.
When I was looking at images from this year’s Met Gala, I almost scrolled straight past Jessica Chastain. Just another celebrity with gorgeous, long blonde hair—nothing to write home about! Then, I did a double take. Could that be? Jessica Chastain?!
The famous redhead debuted platinum blonde hair at this year’s Met Gala. It’s only fitting for this year’s theme, which is “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty.” Attendees were told to dress honoring Karl, but it looks like Jessica Chastain decided to extend that to the realm of beauty.
Her platinum mane is reminiscent of Lagerfeld’s icy hair, and she’s even sporting oversized shades, which were a key part of the designer’s signature look. It’s the kind of playful homage that makes the Met Gala so much fun.
Chastain’s hair was done by celebrity hairstylist Renato Campora using Hair Rituel by Sisley-Paris products. I’m sure Chastain will be back to her signature fiery red hair in no time, but for tonight, the platinum couldn’t be more fitting.
The first Monday in May has finally arrived. As the fashion industry’s Super Bowl, the Met Gala is unquestionably the most highly anticipated event on the calendar. What other soirée could draw so many heavy hitters of the fashion industry to one place? (No offense, Oscars.) This year’s theme is “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty,” and the exhibition includes his designs for Chanel, Chloé, Fendi, and others.
I truly can’t wait until the exhibition opens to the public on May 5, but for now, the 2023 red-carpet looks will have to tide me over. One sensational standout? Amanda Seyfried, who walked the steps of the Met wearing a naked dress dripping in gold threads. Scroll on to see her minidress from every angle.
The carpet’s been rolled out, the tables bought, and the looks finalized—probably months ago. Unless you’ve been on a social media hiatus all week, you probably already know that the event I’m referring to is the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s annual Met Gala. For one night a year, the biggest names in fashion assemble on the steps of New York City’s most beloved museum, and this year, they’ll all be wearing looks that celebrate the late Chanel, Fendi, Balmain, and Chloé (among others) designer Karl Lagerfeld. And since today’s date just so happens to be the first Monday in May—all the excitement is going down tonight.
No matter how much predicting we do ahead of the red—or in this case, off-white—carpet, attendees at the Met Gala always find ways to surprise us. Case in point: Irina Shayk, who stepped in front of cameras this evening not in stilettos or platforms, but in an extremely understated pair of ivory-colored flats. And good for her—we’re all about prioritizing comfort. To offset her more casual shoe choice, the supermodel dressed in a drapey, silk gown, paired with layers of diamonds chokers. After all, the key to a great ensemble is balance. See her look for the 2023 Met Gala below.
For fashion and beauty lovers, the first Monday of May may be the single most exciting day of the year. It’s the night of the 2023 Met Gala, and we’re champing at the bit to see who will be walking the red carpet and what they’ll be wearing.
This year’s Met Gala theme, “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty,” celebrates the life and work of legendary fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld, who designed for a slew of brands throughout his career, including Chanel, Chloé, and Fendi before passing away in 2019. In light of the theme, the evening’s official dress code is naturally “in honor of Karl.”
The Met Gala red carpet has never been the time to play it safe with fashion or beauty, so we’re preparing ourselves for a night of rich inspiration and jaw-dropping (we mean that literally, not figuratively) appearances from our favorite celebrity invitees. Keep scrolling for the best must-see hair, makeup, and beauty moments from the 2023 Met Gala.

We love that Emma Chamberlain is back to host the 2023 Met Gala red carpet. We also love her monochromatic look, complete with hazy blue lids and lots (and lots) of eyeliner.
Penelope Cruz is a vision in white—with a shimmery copper lid and a glossy pink lip to complement.
It’s hard not to stare at Dua Lipa’s 100-carat necklace—to accent, the singer kept her beauty aesthetic understated with a peachy-matte lip, glittering eyes, and ultra-glossy waves.
Our jaws quite literally dropped when we saw Rita Ora arrive on the red carpet. Her lined nude lip, smudgy eyeshadow, and crimped, back-grazing strands are perfection.
The first Monday in May has arrived, and with it, one of the most talked-about nights in fashion: the Met Gala. This star-studded fundraising benefit for the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City features an exhibition theme that pays homage to the late fashion legend, Karl Lagerfeld. The 2023 Met Gala’s theme, “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty”, requires attendees to dress “in honor of Karl”. Though we’ll be keeping a close eye on the arrivals, we already know that Penélope Cruz, Michaela Coel, Roger Federer, Dua Lipa, and Vogue’s Anna Wintour will co-host the event and attend as well.
The ensembles you’re about to explore draw inspiration from Lagerfeld’s iconic designs across various fashion houses, including Balmain, Patou, Chloé, Fendi, Chanel, and his eponymous brand. While some attendees have deviated from the theme, breaking the rules and creating buzz, we have included them in this collection.
