No one rules the Met Gala red carpet quite like Rihanna.
And while her late arrival likely had fans asking “Where Have You Been,” the Bad Gal and partner A$AP Rocky — who are currently expecting their second child — eventually made an entrance on the 2023 gala’s red carpet Monday.
The “Love on the Brain” star stunned in a bridal-esque white Valentino ensemble featuring a flower-adorned cape, dramatic train and false eyelash-adorned sunglasses.
For his part, A$AP Rocky went comparatively casual — at least on the bottom half — as he sported a Gucci suit jacket and a plaid kilt layered over a pair of shimmering jeans.
A source previously told that the “Love on the Brain” singer had a secret fitting for her look at 3 a.m. on Saturday morning, involving $25 million worth of Cartier jewels.
The bridal white gown she ended up wearing was perhaps a fitting fashion to close out the evening – given Karl Lagerfeld’s Chanel shows were known to end with a wedding look.
She removed her cape once inside the gala, revealing a matching rosette-adorned dress that highlighted her baby bump.
Rihanna, 35, might well be the annual event’s most anticipated arrival at this point. Over the years, she’s attended in iconic looks ranging from a pope-inspired Maison Margiela Artisanal ensemble (for 2018’s “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination” gala) to a petal-covered Comme des Garçons creation (for 2017’s “Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons: Art of the In-Between” ball).
And who could possibly forget the jaw-dropping yellow Guo Pei gown she chose for 2015’s “China: Through the Looking Glass”-themed carpet?
This year, the “Work” singer even got into the Met Gala spirit early, as she posed for Instagram snaps in a furry cropped Chanel jacket over the weekend.
