Met Gala 2022: British stars take to glamorous red carpet


Lily James, Phoebe Dynevor, Kate Moss and Daisy Edgar-Jones looked incredible as they led the stars at the Met Gala at New York City ‘s Metropolitan Museum of Art on Monday

Actress Phoebe, 27, flashed her bra beneath a sheer black minidress from Louis Vuitton’s SS22 ready-to-wear featuring a mesh train which exhibited her legs.

Meanwhile, Daisy put on a leggy display in a shimmering silver minidress featuring matching tassels and Lily left little to the imagination in a semi-transparent thigh-split gown with blue segments and pearls.

Lucy Boynton was a vision in a sheer white gown featuring short sleeves, while toting her essentials around in a sliver clutch while Sophie Turner displayed full maternity glow alongside her husband Joe Jonas. 

Gemma Chan put her toned pins on display in a glittery charcoal midi dress resembling a chandelier, which she wore with a leather jacket and Kate flashed her legs in a black velvet coat, which she wore off one shoulder.

The 26-year-old Game Of Thrones actress, who is expecting the couples’ second child together, stunned in an embellished black gown.

Her husband, 32, looked dapper in a white and black tuxedo jacket with extra long tails. Cynthia Erivo wore an impressive white lace gown with a feathered train.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute Benefit, also known as the Met Gala, is considered by many as the ‘Super Bowl of celebrity red carpets.’

Fashion’s biggest night is traditionally held the first Monday in May to raise money for the Costume Institute in New York City, with last year’s event moved to September due to the pandemic.

This year’s dress code is ‘gilded glamour’ to match the theme of ‘In America: An Anthology of Fashion,’ a continuation of last year’s ‘In America: A Lexicon of Fashion.’ 

Tickets for the glitzy event can reportedly cost up to $35,000 apiece, while prices for a table range from $200,000 to $300,000, with last year’s bash raking in a whopping $16.4 million for the Met’s Costume Institute. 

Regina King, power couple Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, and Lin-Manuel Miranda are hosting this time, taking over from Timothée Chalamet, Billie Eilish, Amanda Gorman and Naomi Osaka. 

This will be Miranda’s first time as a Met Gala co-chair (and guest) but he was originally intended to co-host the 2020 edition before the pandemic forced its cancellation.

Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour is once again supervising the benefit as chairwoman, a position she’s held since 1995. Her fellow honorary co-chairs are designer Tom Ford and Instagram head Adam Mosseri. 

As usual, the sartorial theme comes from the exhibit the gala launches: ‘In America: An Anthology of Fashion,’ which is the second of star curator Andrew Bolton’s two-part show exploring the roots of American style.

This exhibit will showcase some lesser-known designers, and also some top film directors, including Sofia Coppola, Martin Scorsese, host King, and last year’s Oscar winner Chloé Zhao.

Bolton said eight directors will create what…
