Met Gala 2016 Red Carpet: See What the Stars Wore
The Met Gala’s red carpet festivities are in full swing.
The theme this year is Manus x Machina, or man and machine, so expect metallics of all shades plus plenty of broke ass C-3PO ensembles.
Keep refreshing as the night goes on to see more and more expensive custom-made looks! Did you know the Met Gala is actually a nonprofit fundraiser? LMAO!
Anna Wintour in Chanel
Anna arrived early because she’s the boss and she doesn’t have to pretend to be late like some people.
Kylie Jenner in Balmain
This is Kylie’s first Met Ball! She decided to go as Kim.
Taylor Swift

Selena Gomez
Selena followed Taylor’s orders and dressed to the squad’s entry-level-emo theme. The shoes say “just cuz I’m at prom doesn’t mean I don’t listen to the Smiths!”
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley in Ralph Lauren
Rosie doesn’t need chrome or metallics to look like a bionic femmebot. We mean that as a compliment.
Alicia Vikander in Louis Vuitton
She actually convincingly played a bionic femmebot in the movie Ex Machina, so we knew Alicia Vikander would turn it up on this red carpet. But what’s with the heeled hiking boots? Why, why, why?!
Saoirse Ronan
This is the outfit equivalent of what happens when I try to pronounce Saoirse’s first name.
Maria Sharapova
Her stylist was like, “This dress is kind of busy, so we’ll just go with one Flintstone earring instead of two.”
Rita Ora
Damn! In my Met Gala Red Carpet bracket I had her wearing Beyoncé’s outfit from last year.
Poppy Delevingne in Marchesa
Aw Poppy you look amazing! Sorry we took you for granted all these years!
Elle Fanning
She looks like an A.I. version of herself! Way to stay on-theme bb, fantastic.
Kate Bosworth
The “Blue Crush” star had the same idea. Would love to see a buddy comedy where these two get into various shenanigans but their faces never move.
Will.i.am
The one good thing you can say about this look is that you don’t even need to see his face to know this could only be Will.i.am.
Gigi Hadid and Robocop Zayn
“Heh heh, these sleeves are so badass.”
“I can’t look at you right now, I’ll cry and ruin my makeup.”
Haim
Remember when you were a goth in high school but still basic, so you planned your future goth wedding in your head? These were the bridesmaid dresses.
Demi Lovato in Moschino
This dress has a lot going on, but it works! A celeb with a lesser stylist would have destroyed it with long wavy hair. Good job, Demi.
Lara Stone
This woman can do no wrong.
Sarah Jessica Parker
This is so out of left field and inconsistent with the technology theme, there has to be an explanation for it. Maybe it was designed by the first computer ever invented in the 70s. Yeah, that has to be it.
Zoe Saldana
Has nothing to do with the theme whatsoever, but hey, you can only wear a train this huge to the Met Ball or your own wedding.
Nicole Kidman
This is incredible! She might have won the night.
Kendall Jenner in Versace
She looks somehow on-theme without defaulting to a silver or gold dress. Good job, Kendall!
Lady Gaga in Versace
“Fame Monster”-era Gaga is back! It’s great to see her give up her recent boring old Hollywood glam theme for a night, even if she does look like Dee Snider did her hair and makeup.
Kate Hudson
Like a robot bride with a lucrative athleisure endorsement!
Madonna
Madonna made our predictions/dreams come true and came closer than anyone to freeing the nipple. She also freed her butt cheeks but what else is new?
Zendaya
Okay, I know I said Nicole Kidman was the winner before, but I meant Zendaya. Serious “Dune” vibes!
Amber Heard
She looks like a Bond girl who loves Xanax.
Beyoncé
Let’s call it “condom couture.”
Karolina Kurkova
Her dress lights up when you tweet! So everyone please stop tweeting.
Blake Lively
What is she looking at in any red carpet pic ever?
