Pop superstar Rihanna showed up late as usual but shut down the red carpet all the same, tennis legend Serena Williams and supermodel Karlie Kloss debuted their baby bumps with flair - and two celebs dressed up as Lagerfeld's cat.
NEW YORK - A-listers from the worlds of fashion, film, politics and sports celebrated the late king of couture, Karl Lagerfeld, at the annual Met Gala on Monday, bringing their top style game to New York, oozing glamour - and delivering serious baby news.
This year, the extravaganza - which always falls on the first Monday of May, save for a pandemic-era schedule change - celebrates Lagerfeld, and ushers in the opening of a Costume Institute exhibition dedicated to the iconic designer, who died in 2019. Rihanna was cloaked in white Valentino, with airy camellias - the flower synonymous with Chanel - adorning the hood of her cape.
"It feels amazing. I'm happy to be a dad," said her partner, rapper ASAP Rocky, when asked about the impending arrival of their new child. "The show is really focusing on Karl the designer, his works rather than his words," said Costume Institute head curator Andrew Bolton. "We haven't included any of his more controversial or offensive comments."
