Met Gala is a prime event for the celebrities from the movie as well as the fashion industry. As it still welcomes great names associated with the above-stated industries, it has been a home to late stars as well. 

While making a presence on the green carpet at the event that was held on May 6, Colman Domingo didn’t just make sure to put on an outfit that went along with the theme decided for this year but also paid his respect to the two most loved icons. 

Wearing a uniquely designed dress that also had a white cape, the Euphoria star paid tribute to two black stars. His attire was in remembrance of journalist André Leon Talley as well as Marvel Cinematic Universe star and Black Panther actor Chadwick Boseman.
