2023 Met Gala Red Carpet Roundup

Alexa Chung
2023 Met Gala
Róisín Pierce

A Dior Men-clad Tom Sturridge was the groom to Alexa Chung bride wearing a Róisín Pierce two-piece look made from patchworked satin with overlaid delicate star embroidery.

I adore the unique headpiece consisting of scalloped cotton lace, which is swirled into conical flowers and soft, square peaks and joined in the centre by Irish hand crochet, resulting in a delicate, almost shell-like crown.

Jimmy Choo pumps ensured this look stayed on the black and white theme, with Boucheron jewels providing the finishing touch.

Alia Bhatt’s diamonds were no match for her pearl accented Atelier Prabal Gurung exaggerated basque waist ball gown.

The fairy-tale elegance was endearing, along with the single fingerless leather glove.

Patou
