“So it’s a dream come true for me that our first design collaboration is something I will wear on the Met red carpet. “The first time I met Nicolas we spoke not only about me working with Louis Vuitton as a brand ambassador, but also about how we could find ways to work together and even try and co-design,” Naomi told Vogue. The illustration included a Koi fish, a reference to Naomi and Mari’s Japanese heritage. The dress also featured a digital watercolor art piece designed by Naomi’s sister, Mari.

Naomi wore a Louis Vuitton outfit to the Met Gala that consisted of a custom corseted dress with a colorful, graphic jacquard and a silk cape featuring 22 ruffles, 18 meters of leather satin and a 50-meter silk hem.

Here are the best looks of the night - who is your best dressed? But the pandemic switched things around and we get a gala during fashion week.

If you’re thinking September feels a little strange to be having the Met Gala, you aren’t wrong. Costume Institute curator Andrew Bolton said in a statement American fashion is “undergoing a renaissance, with young American designers at the vanguard of discussions around diversity, inclusion, sustainability and conscious creativity.” This year’s Gala will be split up into two events, the first of which’s theme is “In America: A Lexicon of Fashion” inspired by The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s next costume exhibition.

The biggest night in fashion is here! You know what I’m talking about: Met Gala fashion! After a year-long hiatus, the Met Gala is officially back in 2021.
