The most fashionable event of the year has begun and we were all in shock (in a good way) when celebrities arrived one by one and walked up the stairs of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. This year's theme is Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination and attendees really served us fashion fused with religion that it is hard to make a best and worst dressed list.
The first to made our jaws drop is Rihanna. I mean, how can you not love something that is referenced to a pope. This amazing creation is by Margiela. She is one of the event's co-hosts and naturally the expectations are high. Rihanna is one of the reasons why the Met Gala is one of the most anticipated events of the year.
Stunning. Blake Lively cemented her status as one of the best dressed celebrities EVER in this intricate Atelier Verscae gown. While she wasn't accompanied by Ryan Reynolds, she was able to tag along her pal Christian Louboutin.
Another celebrity to go all out is Emilia Clarke who wore a Dolce & Gabbana embroidered gown with cherub paintings on the skirt. The "it" accessory of the evening was a crown and of course the queen of the dragons wouldn't be caught dead not wearing one. Her makeup reminiscent of the Victorian era was made possible by Jillian Dempsey.
Arianna Grande hinted on Instagram that her Met Gala gown is inspired by the Sistine Chapel. The painted cherubs on her ball gown seems like they are rejoicing the arrival of a heavenly body. This stunning creation is by Vera Wang.
We thought Katy Perry will have a hard time topping her 2013 Met Gala look but we are so wrong. Her Versace look is as heavenly as it could possibly be. It was reported that she even rode a convertible just to fit her wings. It is outrageously good that we live for it.
At the front, Bella Hadid's custom Chrome Hearts look can be referenced to Padme Amidala because of the exaggerated collar and gloves and the religion reference can also be seen on her skirt. The placement of a large cross on her back made a "walking away" impact.
Kim Kardashian was dripping in gold with her custom Versace gown. It was simple cut that made a huge impact because it fitted Kim's hourglass figure perfectly.
One of the earliest to arrive is Lily Collins who stunned in Givenchy. We already know the reference of this look. We love how everything pieces together--from her headpiece, her makeup, the off-shoulder top and see through skirt, and her carrying a rosary... we died!
Jennifer Lopez is putting this Balmain dress for auction. It was announced by Olivier Rousteing earlier this day through Balmain's YouTube account. Other Balmain dresses worn today will also be auctioned off. If there is one dress, if we have at least $5K, we will place our bid on Jennifer Lopez's dress. It is stunning!
Kate Bosworth channeled a virginal woman who could make you confess your worldly sins. Her Oscar de la Renta gown looks so divine that we could almost hear angels sing.
The Met wouldn't be complete without Madonna. Each year, she makes us lose our senses when it comes to her red carpet looks. If there is one theme that she should go all out, it is this year's. She has made several songs referenced to religion--does Like A Prayer ring a bell? Her black gown with a huge cross in the front, the veil, the crown and the black roses... we literally went bonkers.
Another Met Gala veteran is Rosie Huntington-Whitely who looks divine is Ralph Lauren caped gown. Her halo headpiece was to-die-for, it completed her saintly look.
Cardi B made a successful debut at the Met Gala wearing a custom Moschino gown by Jeremy Scott with intricate bead works and a matching head piece.
