The Best Met Gala 2024 Red Carpet Looks: PHOTOS

It is fashion’s biggest night, and our favorite stars from all over the world have come to wow and amaze on the red carpet. Every year, we see a slew of celebrities rock looks that are the definition of sensational, and this year‘s Met Gala is no different (especially with the ethereal theme this year)!

This year, for the 2024 Met Gala, the theme is “The Garden of Time,” which was inspired by the Costume Institute’s new exhibit, “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.” So, while the theme and dress code are open-ended, we expected floral looks, poignant looks, and rather stunning gowns, and that’s exactly what we got!

From the floral ensembles to showstopping looks we won’t forget about anytime soon, this year’s Met Gala gave fans everything they desired (and more!)

If you don’t believe us, you need to see for yourselves.

Check out the best-dressed stars at the 2024 Met Gala below:
