The Met Gala, often called the fashion world’s biggest night, kicked off on May 6 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art with a bang, and once again, it has mesmerized us with its dazzling display of style and creativity. This year’s theme, Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion, explores the possibilities of using technology to revitalize clothing that is too fragile or old to be worn again. Let's take a closer look at some of the standout outfits from the event.

Her gown, adorned with heaps of tulle and fabric, captured the essence of the ocean with its flowing silhouette and serene color palette. Her ocean-inspired gown stood out as a refreshing and captivating interpretation of the theme.
Alia Bhatt
Alia Bhatt stunned in a mint green saree custom-designed by designer Sabyasachi and she was styled by Anaita Shroff Adjania. Her ensemble was perfectly in tune with the theme.

Natasha Poonawalla, known for her impeccable taste in fashion, graced the Met Gala 2024 with a stunning custom ensemble from the Maison Margiela Artisanal Collection, curated by the visionary designer John Galliano. Her outfit featured a sculpted white bodycon dress with delicate black detailing. She finished her look with Louboutin sky-high heels.

Kendall Jenner
Kendall Jenner picked a black corset gown from Alexander McQueen’s 1999 couture collection for Givenchy. Her black corset dress featured a low-cut corset bustier adorned with over 100,000 black and brass beads. Kendall’s dress is not relevant to the theme much, but still, she nailed her look.
Demi Moore
Demi Moore stepped on the red carpet in a dress from designer Haris Reed. The gown had a dramatic, spiky heart-shaped construction and a sleek black column design with a pink and white floral motif. Moore accessorized her ensemble with Cartier diamond jewelry.

Shakira
Shakira impressed all with her eye-catching column dress with a slit that drew gazes during her debut at the Met Gala. A dramatic long cape that resembled a rose and was styled with nearly 100 meters of cloth was chosen for its wow value. Wes Gordon, creative director of Carolina Herrera, designed the chic ensemble with geometric cutouts.
Doja Cat
Doja Cat donned a Vetements maxi-length wet T-shirt. She accessorized the ensemble with striking glam, such as perfectly pigmented teardrops suspended in a smoky eye look, an immaculate complexion, and a neat buzz cut on her natural hair. Her look was probably one of the dresses this year that didn’t relate to the theme at all.
Cardi B
Rapper Cardi B, who is renowned for her daring fashion sense, made a stunning entry at the Met Gala 2024 wearing a gown that epitomized luxury and splendor. The spectacular black creation, which was larger than life, was designed by Chinese designer Windowsen. Her look was one of the highlights of the event.
Amanda Seyfried
Amanda Seyfried arrived on the green carpet wearing a crinkled silver ball gown. It was decorated with black, pink, and white beaded flowers on the roomy skirt of the metallic sleeveless dress. Even though it was a fabulous dress, the interesting part about the whole attire is that she wore an ivy crown with some diamonds on it, while her hair was in lovely swirls made of silver strands, making us forget about everything except those two things that she has put on.
Amanda is one of the best-dressed for she has worn those particular things that could qualify her as one of the best-dressed on such an occasion.
