Celebrities make the most of religious theme at Met Gala
Rihanna, Katy Perry and Amal Clooney all turned heads in New York City.
Rihanna stole the show at the Met Gala, turning heads by channelling the Pope for her red carpet outfit.
This year’s event had a religious theme and the Umbrella singer made the most of the dress code, wearing a diamond-encrusted papal-inspired outfit complete with a mitre-style hat.
Amal, a human rights lawyer, wore a rose-patterned skirt and trousers designed by British designer Richard Quinn.
She wore a figure-hugging gold dress by Versace.
In a nod to the theme of the night, the dress was embroidered with crosses on the hips and torso.
The bizarre feathered accessories were so big that Perry was seen knocking someone over when she walked past them.
The wings were teamed with a gold Versace gown with matching thigh-high boots.
The singer’s dress was emblazoned with a cross.
The theme of this year’s Met Gala was Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination – and the singer fit in perfectly.
The Material Girl wore a black Jean Paul Gaultier gown, with a black net veil – all topped off by a crown of jewelled crosses.
She wore a red dress complete with an elaborate headdress with mini crucifixes.
The fundraiser for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute in New York City, chaired by Vogue editor Anna Wintour, attracts some of the biggest names in showbusiness and takes place on the first Monday of May every year.
