GALLERY | Cardi B, Zendaya and 13 more showstopping looks from the 2024 Met Gala

The first Monday of May came and went with the most anticipated night in fashion, the Met Gala.

Whether you stayed up to the early hours catch the stars glide down the red carpet in magnificent garments embodying this year’s Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion exhibit or came here to see everyone from Cardi B to Tyla stun in ‘The Garden of Time’ dress code, the Superbowl of fashion is always a showstopper.

This year, the gala – which fundraises for the Metropolitan Museum’s costume institute – is co-chaired by Zendaya, Jennifer Lopez, Bad Bunny and Chris Hemsworth alongside Vogue’s editor-in-chief Anna Wintour.

Figure hugging silhouettes reminiscent of the elements from the likes of Tyla and Doja Cat plus Zendaya’s two stunning looks did no less than turn heads.
