The MET Gala 2022 saw different styles and silhouettes gracefully glide down the red carpet. In line with the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute’s theme In America: An Anthology of Fashion, the celebrities interpreted the theme with elan.
While the ensembles weaved different stories about the glorious past, the leaders told their own story. From favorites like Iris Van Herpen, Philip Treacy holding the celebrity’s head high to gilded glamor-inspired headwear that sparkles during the event, each piece made a fashion statement in its own unique way. Here’s a look at some interesting pieces that turned heads on the red carpet.
Winnie Harlow
Winnie Harlow in Iris van Herpen’s abstract artwork completed Winnie and her ensemble with the T. The design of the headpiece resembled a creative version of the Venus flytrap and had 3D accents.
Blake Lively, Anna Wintour, & Emma Chamberlain
As Tom Ford said, “I almost wore a tiara.” The red carpet was graced by celebrities wearing tiaras. Starting with Anna Wintour who paired her Chanel dress with an American tiara. Blake Lively also wore tiaras, which looked like royalty in Atelier Versace. According to Blake, the tiara is inspired by the Statue of Liberty. The tiara contained 7 layers and 25 diamonds, resembling the seven spikes and 25 windows on the crown. Among those present, Emma Chamberlain and Hamish Bowles also experimented with the head piece.
Janelle MonaePrecious Lee & Michaela Jae
Extravagant hairstyles took the back seat at this year’s MET Gala. Celebrities such as Janelle Monae, Precious Lee and Michaela Jae took to the stairs at the gala wearing a jeweled headpiece paired with a shimmery Ralph Lauren dress. Like Janelle, Mischaela Jae shone in an all gold and silver Moschino sequined dress and a matching headscarf. While Precious Lee kept her headscarf minimal, accessorizing her look with gold jewelry.
Sarah Jessica Parker, Normani & La La Anthony
Actress Sarah Jessica Parker loves her fascinators and this time she went all out with her Philip Treacy headpiece. The touch of pink in the over-the-top black and white fascinator added a pop of color to her overall look. Her company was La La Anthony, who looked radiant in a disk-like fascinator with red roses and paired it with a LaQuan Smith ensemble. Also spotted sporting a simple yet chic fascinator was Normani who came dressed in Christian Siriano.
