The Met Gala After-Party Parade From The Mark Hotel
The Mark Hotel was the unofficial catwalk for the Met Gala after-party looks that gave celebs a chance to loosen their corsets—literally and stylistically.

Chim Chim-in-ey Couture
Charli XCX’s custom Javier Guijarro look had all the chaotic energy of a London rooftop rendezvous. The deconstructed jacket, striped shirt, and black maxi skirt gave serious Mary Poppins belting out Chim Chim Cher-ee—sooty, edgy, and weirdly chic. There’s no denying that this ‘bad girl’ era is working overtime. New rule: the messier Charli gets, the better she looks.

Tie’s Off, Dior’s On
Anna Sawai swap the formalities for something cool, comfy and still on theme. By ditching her shirt, hat and tie for a “J’Adore Dior” tee, she showed us how to transition from the Met’s red carpet to after-party realness without sacrificing any fashion credentials.

From Bar to Barely-There
Monica Barbaro said goodbye to the sculpted structure of her Bar Jacket and hello to breathability in a Dior Fall 2025 black tulle embroidered dress.

A Bodysuit Win, Finally
I know the bodysuit parade Pharrell served up wasn’t your thing, but credit where it’s due—Jenna Ortega’s Balmain tuxedo jacket bodysuit was sharply tailored, and well styled.

Wait, Haven’t I Seen That Skirt Before?
If Rose’s Saint Laurent look gave you déjà vu, that’s because you’ve seen the ruffled skirt on Zoe Saldana at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party. This comfortably outshone her Met Gala main event moment, which felt a little lost by comparison.
