The annual Met Gala saw some of the biggest names in entertainment and fashion come together to push the boundaries of traditional red-carpet fashion on Monday.
This year’s theme centered on Karl Lagerfeld, the late German designer best known for his work as creative director of Chanel. As celebrities try to push the boundaries of traditional red-carpet fashion, the industry’s biggest night often sees some of the most elegant outfits showcased, as well as some of the most questionable ensembles.
Here’s Distinct Post’s list of the best and worst dressed for the night:
The best dressed at Met Gala 2023:
1. Dua Lipa
Pop singer Dua Lipa dazzled in a stunning Chanel gown and over $10 million worth of diamonds.
2. Lizzo
The “Special” singer walked the carpet in a pearl-clad black dress, bringing her retro twist to the elegant ensemble.
3. Jenna Ortega
The “Wednesday” actress turned heads in her Thom Browne dress that seemed to be inspired by goth, flamenco, and Mexican designs.
4. Bad Bunny
The internationally renowned star showed up in a tweed off-white, backless suit, and a flowing roses-shaped cape.
5. Anne Hathaway
Anne Hathaway did just that with her ensemble: a body-hugging white tweed Versace gown. The strapless piece included sultry cutouts on the torso—with one extended into a thigh-high leg slit. The cutouts were held together by the Italian fashion house’s iconic gold safety pins.
Worst dressed at Met Gala 2023::
1. Jared Letto
The popular actor also wanted to pay homage to Lagerfeld’s cat Choupette, but unfortunately, he missed the mark with his enormous blue-eyed Burmese cat mascot that made it seem he was trying too hard to step outside the box.
2. Kylie Jenner
On any other night, Kylie Jenner’s custom-made red gown would have turned heads. But at one of fashion’s most anticipated nights, the reality star’s outfit was too basic in comparison to other ensembles.
3. Suki Waterhouse
British model Suki Waterhouse looked flushed out in her sheer floral dress as she walked the red carpet with her actor boyfriend Robert Pattinson
4. Marion Cotillard
French actress Marion Cotillard barely made an impression with her short silver-sequined Chanel dress which may have been a better fit for a less-extravagant red-carpet event.
5. Olivia Wilde
Olivia Wilde’s Met Gala outfit made headlines for all the wrong reasons. The actress showed up in the white version of a Chloe dress also worn by Vogue China’s editor-in-chief Margaret Zhang. Unfortunately for Wilde, Zhang wore it better.
