Met Gala 2018 Hosts and Their Looks

Anna Wintour, being the chair of Met Gala, arrived early and she's wearing a custom Chanel gown in her go-to silhouette with a hint of skin on the shoulders.

Not to shy away from over-the-top look is Rihanna who is a co-host of the Met Gala. Her Margiela by John Galliano ensemble is something that should be put on display in a museum. 

Amal Clooney may be a newbie but you wouldn't know that because of her impeccable style. As one of the co-hosts, she wowed us with her Richard Quinn gown that is casual in front but totally high fashion in the back.

Donatella Versace arrived wearing a blue mini dress with skirt overlay and over-the-knee boots. The Versace brand has referenced their designs in religion since the time of Gianni Versace so we were not surprised to see majority of the celebrities wearing gowns from the Italian brand.

Met Gala 2018 "Heavenly Bodies" Arrival Photos

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.

Zendaya made a brilliant move to reference religion to one of the most notable women in the history--Joan of Arc. Her custom Versace gown sent us back to the time of the knights and warlords. If anyone else would do this look, she will fail miserably.

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.

The Most Memorable Met Gala Outfits To Date

Beyonce has a lot of memorable Met Gala looks but she shut the red carpet down in 2015 when she arrived wearing a naked gown by Givenchy that began the naked gown trend in all of Hollywood.

Last year, Katy Perry arrived at the Met Gala wearing a Maison Margiela by John Galliano red gown complete with a veil. It was not the most over-the-top look of the night but it sure did make a statement.

Kim Kardashian made her first Met Gala look in 2012 memorable by wearing a floral gown by Givenchy. Admit it, it may not be the best choice to make a debut on the most fashionable event of the year, but it sure did made her career skyrocket. 

Who could forget about Princess Diana's navy blue gown with lace trimmings designed by John Galliano for Dior. She attended the gala a few weeks before her divorce from Prince Charles in 1996. 

Like Beyonce, Rihanna also has a lot of memorable Met Gala outfits but her yellow Guo Pei gown in 2015 was the one that launched a thousand memes. 

Gisele Bundchen is a Met Gala veteran having to walk its red carpet when she was just 19 years old. In 2011, like any year, she wowed us with this red Alexander McQueen gown with fish tail bottom.

This La Perla gown, which basically made Kendall Jenner almost naked, cemented her status as one of the "it" models of the decade. 

Trend Alert: Gray Plaid Pantsuit

A trendsetter doesn't follow trends. That's what these Hollywood stars think. They will wear whatever they want to wear even under the summer heat--like the gray plaid pantsuits Cara Delevingne wore with boots, Cate Blanchett with Oxfords, Priyanka Chopra with sandals and Sofia Bush wore hers with white pumps. They all look feminine and stylish.

While you can also try head-to-toe plaids, you can also wear them separately. Take a look at our finds.
