It’s the first Monday of May, which means the annual Met Gala is here once again. Last year, the theme, “In America: An Anthology of Fashion,” was all about American fashion with gilded glamour as the dress code. This year’s theme, “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty,” is an ode to the late designer known for his work at Chanel, Fendi, Chloé, and his own line Karl Lagerfeld. The dress code, then, is fitting: In honor of Karl. 

Last year, celebrities took the gilded glamour theme in many different directions, including tons of intricate headpieces, so it will be interesting to see how folks interpret tonight’s theme. As always, we’re rounding up our favorite beauty moments of the night, so make sure to check back here regularly as we continue to update the list. Now scroll and indulge in all of the eye-catching moments from the 2023 Met Gala. 

 La La Anthony 

An early arrival, La La Anthony, who is also hosting the live stream, showed up on the Met carpet looking like a glass of milk in a figure-hugging white gown with golden accessories, including a pair of pearl-studded, cat-eye shades. Her hair was swept up into a retro, high ponytail with curled ends and a sleek side bang. Her white headband was the perfect finishing touch.
