“My entire career has been about being strong and feminine at the same time, so I love that my team was able to create a look that delivers both power and lightness. I still feel like me, just a more dramatic and glamorous version” MetGala

The most decorated American track-and-field athlete in Olympic history swapped her spikes for Fendi heels, and her signature statement necklace made from her record-breaking 11 Olympic medals for a high-neck Fendi couture gown covered in 240,000 ostrich feathers and crystal beads.

For a your-lips-but-better look, Moultrie applied KVD Epic Kiss Nourishing Vegan Butter Lipstick in Lolita, a chestnut-y rose, and topped it with KVD Everlasting Liquid Lipstick in the same shade to make it both maskproof and dinnerproof.
