At this year's Met Gala, some famous public figures were hidden behind masks, blindfolds, headpieces and makeup that created the illusion of a marble statue or an aging man. You might not know it to look at them, but the night was a celebration of the body.
Guests including Colman Domingo, Doja Cat, Janelle Monáe, Kylie Jenner and Bad Bunny showed out on Monday night, wearing outfits that riffed on the idea of "the dressed body," the focus of the new fashion exhibition. That included corsets, foam, barely-there Saint Laurent gowns and different styles of flowers.
Celebrities entering the gala spilled out to the Great Hall, which was decked out to resemble an oil painting, with real cypress and faux white wisteria.
