The annual Met Costume Institute Gala at New York City’s Metropolitan Museum of Art attracted (as usual) practically every famous person in the known celebrity-verse. Jay Z, Beyoncé, Rihanna, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Kanye West and scores more descended on the event dressed to the nines to honor English fashion designer Charles James. Ballgown trains and tuxedo tails abounded at this exclusive fashion event to end all fashion events, which wrapped up with a scintillating set by the one and only Frank Ocean.
Since 1946, the annual Costume Institute Benefit Gala—held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City—has turned heads with celebrity star power. Last night this year’s theme, “China: Through the Looking Glass,” inspired the likes of Rihanna, Janelle Monáe, Alicia Keys, Zoë Kravitz, fka twigs and more to get dolled up and gowned down. Beyoncé broke the Internet for the umpteenth time with her last-second red carpet arrival in a barely there Givenchy dress. Check the hottest looks of the night above.
