Rihanna, A$AP Rocky, Nicole Kidman, Halle Bailey and more debuted their Met Gala looks at The Carlyle Hotel on their way out to the museum.
Anok Yai, also in Prabal Gurung, appeared in the lobby next, peering into a mirror to adjust the sparkly mesh mask draped over her eyes before posing in front of Ludwig Bemelmans’ lobby illustrations. She was followed soon after by Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban, who held hands as they made their way out around 5:30.
While most talent departed through the hotel’s main entrance, several stars opted to exit at the “side” Madison Avenue entrance, including Jeremy Strong, Sydney Sweeney, Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union. Just after 7 p.m., a rumor began circulating: Kendall Jenner and Diddy were on their way down.
Afterward, departures started to wind down, and another rumor took shape: It was 7:40, and Rihanna had just ordered room service. The crowd of fans stationed behind the barricades outside the hotel grew larger as they anticipated the singer’s very late departure . Two Ferrari armed guards strode into the hotel just before 9:30, a good sign, and soon after the crowd started to chant Rihanna’s name. Their calls were finally answered a few minutes later when the singer — clad in a fur coat, not yet donning her full Valentino look — emerged with A$AP Rocky, who beamed for the crowd as the pair hurried into a waiting black van.
