Camila Cabello was in Prabal Gurung at the Met Gala, where the theme was of course supposed to be Gilded Glamour. Someone told the Vogue red carpet interviewers, particularly La La Anthony and Vanessa Hudgens, to use the word “iconic” because they seemed to mention it in every interview. Camilla’s look was tragique, not iconic, especially considering how many man hours went into this mess. There is a weird half bra held together by straps that can’t contain her underboob, there’s a side ruffle vomiting psychedelic tissue flowers, a high leg slit and a train. The mini shoulder pads really add something. I’ll say something nice – her hair and styling look cool and I like the flowers in her high bun.
Michelle Yeoh looked incredible in this Prabal Gurung mint green silk faille gown with an off the shoulder cape and huge train. This is regal, elegant and on theme. Look at the detailing along the back and in the bodice.
Ashley Park was in a Prabal Gurung gown with a tight pink silk corset with bows at the shoulders and back, a long train and a black and white ostrich feather skirt. I love this so much!
Denee Benton, Peggy from The Gilded Age, was also in Prabal Gurung. I get the impression that she was assigned the same team as Camila Cabello. She’s so pretty but I’m not fond of this color combination or the gathered peplum.
Kiki Layne was in a pink Prabal Gurung with floral accents on her gloves and bustline. We’re not getting The Old Guard 2 this year but the sequel is in the works and the problems at Netflix better not have derailed it!
Mindy Kaling was in a light purple chiffon Prabal Gurung with a deep v-neck, high leg slit and trailing ribbons at the sleeves. I feel like we’ve seen this dress so many times.
Shawn Mendes looked like a Disney prince in navy and burgundy Tommy Hilfiger. He’s such a beautiful man!

I agree about Mindy’s dress. Pretty but boring.
HOWEVER, just pretend it’s for a fancy night out, not the MET. Holy wow. She looks amazing. That purple was made for her. Plus her styling is sleeker than she normally goes. I love it. I just wish she didn’t wear it here.
I feel like Mindy K and Michelle Y just went with basic nod to the theme but dresses they can enjoy the night in. Hope they both had a blast!
Yes! Tom and Lorenzo called Mindy’s dress a great Golden Globes dress. This was not the look for this event.
Shawn looked amazing. He deserved his own post. Not sure why he’s buried in here.
That’s how I feel about Lizzo. Buried and she slayed.
This too. Lizzo is Queen.
Yes, and he is the only one that should have been shown. As much as I love Michelle Yeoh and Mindy, they both look stunning, again they have lost the theme, to me at least. But Shawn Mendez killed it!!!
As for Camila Cabelo, she is dressed is all types of tragedy! They did her dirty. That is a national disaster.
Totally agree. Never saw a dude show up the ladies for Best Dressed the way he did.
He was best dressed for the night, hands down.
Shawn Mendes does look like a Disney prince-thats it exactly
God, Michelle Yeoh is ageless, isn’t she? I love that dress, and the color is exquisite on her.
I love Kiki’s purse.
Michelle Yeoh is always stunning. I wonder how much of that jewellery she owns?
For me, the problem with Denee Benton’s look is the gloves. They drag the overall look into a cheap/costume-y place. And they draw attention away from her gorgeous face and those fabulous layered necklaces!
Camila Cabello was the first that I saw, and I laughed. That top is BAD. It is not flattering at all.
I quite like Camila- but they did her dirty with that top. It looks so awkward
Just awful!
I liked all the looks with the exception of Camila’s. Kiki Layne’s look made me so happy– she’s incredibly beautiful. Mindy looks amazing, too. She really nailed it and looks so elegant.
Some of these were beautiful but I’m a bit disappointed that Quannah Chasinghorse wasn’t included in the Prabal grouping. Her gown and styling were gorgeous!
