The Best Beauty Looks To Adore From The 2023 Met Gala

 

On the first Monday of May, the fashion world holds its breath for the annual Met Gala — the grandest night of the year. This year’s theme, “A Line of Beauty,” paid tribute to the legendary Karl Lagerfeld with the celebrities in attendance dazzling with stunning hair and makeup looks, featuring embellished veils, retro high ponytails, and striking headpieces.

Drawing inspiration from Lagerfeld’s iconic runway shows and personal fashion, guests sported black ribbon-tied hair, intentionally tousled locks, bold hair colors, and feline-inspired finishes.

The color palette was dominated by classic black, white, and shades of gray, but with soft, delicate hues of petal pink and nude adding a touch of elegance. And to top it off, a playful pop of “Choupette blue” made an appearance. Here are some of the most unforgettable beauty moments from the 2023 Met Gala.

Emma Chamberlain

In a delightful periwinkle outfit accessorized with a matching plush headband, Emma Chamberlain made her triumphant return as Vogue’s special correspondent for yet another year.

Penélope Cruz

For a moment, we thought there was a wedding in sight because Penélope Cruz arrived exuding an air of bridal elegance that could make anyone believe she was about to exchange vows. It’s the way her hair was expertly slicked back into a tasteful low updo, with the veil gracefully cascading over half her head, enhancing her ethereal beauty.

Gabrielle Union

Gabrielle Union arrived sporting divine box braids, cascading past her waist in a lively curl. Her eyes were adorned with striking graphic eyeliner, featuring a bold and precise cat-eye, with a shorter line extending from her inner corner to a quarter of the way across her crease. The shorter line was further embellished with shimmering black glitter, adding a touch of magic to her look.

Emily Ratajkowski

Emily’s delicate fringes gracefully swept across her forehead, stopping about an inch above her elegantly arched eyebrows, creating a chic look that was far from the realm of baby bangs. Her smoked-out eye makeup and blushing pink cheeks perfectly complemented her lustrous, pink glossy lips, resulting in an overall breathtaking appearance.
