AceShowbiz - Met Gala always provides celebrities a chance to go all out with their fashion, be it male or female stars. Among those who stole at the annual event which took place at Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York on Monday, May 6 was Billy Porter, who not only turned heads with his choice of outfits, but also with the way he made an entrance to the intimate dinner.
Dressed as an Egyptian Sun God in a glittering bodysuit and robe by The Blonds, the "Pose" star was carried on the pink carpet by a group of shirtless men who also dressed in gold. After being gently lowered to the ground, he continued as he strode on the carpet and spread his golden wings. It was truly a spectacular sight to behold.
Also catching attention during the red carpet session of the event was Harry Styles, who made his Met Gala debut in a black ensemble which bared a glimpse of his body in the semi-sheer number which boasted black ruffling down the center. He paired his look with heeled leather boots and one single pearl earring.
Other stars who opted for show-stopping ensembles during the event included Celine Dion and Janelle Monae. The Canadian singing diva stepped out in an Oscar de la Renta metallic bodysuit with fringe-detailing and a plunging neckline. She completed it with an extravagant headpiece. The outfit, which weight over 22 pounds, took over 3,000 hours to make with 52 master embroiderers working on it.
Meanwhile, Janelle wore a multicolored gown which featured a face across the entirety of the front. She turned her left breast into the eye of the face, while the mouth was featured on her skirt. She topped off the look with four massive top hats for the bold look.
