Cardi B’s 2023 Met Gala Look: A Tribute to Karl Lagerfeld in a Bold Black Ball Gown and Tie

Cardi B reigns as the undisputed queen of making a splash on the Met Gala‘s red carpet with her audacious looks; only a few can match her in this regard. At the 2023 Met Gala, themed “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty,” the rapper lived up to expectations, showcasing a striking and feminine ensemble by Chenpeng Studio that put her unique spin on Lagerfeld’s classic black suit.

As she made her grand entrance, all eyes were on her black corseted gown, featuring a white sleeveless collared top, a black tie oversized roses on the skirt, and matching black opera gloves. To complete the look, Cardi B opted for a silver-toned bob with flipped ends, reminiscent of Lagerfeld’s iconic hairstyle, and a black leather headband for some extra pizazz.

This was in fact, her second outfit to the 2023 MET Gala. Earlier, she was captured stepping out of her hotel in a breathtaking pink gown. The strapless wonder was bedazzled with precious jewels and a plunging neckline. A magnificent circular decoration crafted from tufted fabric rose high above her head and cascaded down her back. To complete her look, she added a multi-strand pearl choker, a matching set of multi-strand bracelets, and a hair accessory featuring a teardrop pearl delicately perched on her forehead.

Her twist on Karl Lagerfeld’s signature style started with a pristine white collar and tie, perfectly framing a snug black bodice bedecked with glistening silver studs. The magnificent skirt boasted a quilted overlay in the style of Chanel’s coveted Boy Bag, embellished with massive sculpted rosettes.

The rapper known for her chart-topping hit “Money” has earned herself a spot on the esteemed “best dressed” roster with a series of show-stopping appearances at the Met Gala. Among her most memorable looks was a regal, papal-inspired gown complete with a stunning headpiece adorned in precious jewels, which she debuted at the 2018 event. In 2019, she stunned yet again in a striking Thom Browne coat dress, adorned with cascading feathers and featuring a majestic circular train, ensuring that all eyes were on her as she made her grand entrance. Last year, she wore a Versace gold glittery dress and complementing gloves. The outfit was adorned with various embellishments, including coins, chains, and square pendants, which enhanced its overall appeal. To accentuate her looks, the artist chose neutral makeup with a 90s-inspired vibe, and her hair was styled in a voluminous bouffant, adding more glamor to her appearance.
