Lana Del Rey appeared ethereal on the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Returning triumphantly to the Met Gala tonight, the singer captivated onlookers in a whimsical ensemble that evoked the essence of a garden nymph. She wore a beige gown from Alexander ཧMcQueen, designed by Sean McGirr, featuring ornate, thorny brown twigs that spiraled around her figure. A crown made of shimmering twigs adorned her head, supporting a large beige veil—or net—that cascaded over her head, shoulders, and torso.
The outfi💞t pays homage to a classic Alexander McQueen runway look from 2007.
Del Rey maintained her iconic girly goth glam, this time with a touch from celebrity makeup artist Etienne Ortega. Her caramel-♋brown hair cascaded in playful waves.
The evening's theme, “The Garden 🌳oꦏf Time,” aligns with the art museum’s latest exhibition, “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.” Del Rey captured the essence of this theme flawlessly with her enchanting, earthy outfit.
Del Rey last attended the Met G🀅ala in 2018, when she, alongside Jared Leto and Gucci’s then–creative dir♒ector, Alessandro Michele, donned celestial outfits that perfectly captured the night's theme, “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion & The Catholic Imagination.”
Since then, Del Rey has appeared on various red carpets, including 🍰the 2024 Grammys, where she channeled goth ballerina vibes in a sheer black dress adorned with velvet flowers. The dress featured dramatically puffed sleeves a⛄nd a voluminous skirt. Del Rey complemented the outfit with numerous bows: pointy black heels with bows at the front, and a large silky bow in her hair.
More recently, Del Rey, who was featured on the cover of our magazine for the Decem💟ber 2023/January 2024 issue, has been keeping a low profile as she puts the finishing touches on her debut country album, "Lasso," scheduled for release in Septembe🌞r.
