As a seven time attendee of the Met Gala, it’s safe to say that Gigi Hadid knows her way around the event’s red carpet by now. Since attending her first Met in 2015, the supermodel has pulled off a variety of drastically different themes along the way from campy to futuristic. So, ahead of this year’s grand soirée, occurring on May 1, Vogue is looking back on all of Hadid’s Met Gala best red carpet looks. Hadid’s Met Gala fashion journey began back in 2015, when she attended the “China Through the Looking Glass” theme in a red DVF gown. The design was complete with a plunging neckline and high slit. A year later, for “Manus x Machina Fashion in an Age of Technology,” she switched it up in a space age Tommy Hilfiger dress, finished with a spangled corset for a dash of extraterrestrial glamour. (She posed side by side with then boyfriend Zayn Malik, who wore a black Versace suit with silver armor detailing on the sleeves).
As the years have gone on, Hadid’s Met looks have gotten even more elaborate and theatrical. For 2017’s “Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons Art of the In Between” theme, for instance, she wore a champagne colored Tommy Hilfiger gown with an asymmetrical tulle train. One of her most glamorous moments came in 2018 for the “Heavenly Bodies” exhibition, where she sported a stained glass window inspired gown by Versace that looked like a true piece of art. More recently, Hadid nailed the camp theme in 2019 by wearing a Michael Kors Collection ensemble that consisted of a silvery jumpsuit with a matching cape, boots, and headpiece. In 2021, she hit the red carpet in a strapless gown by Prada, complete with a back slit and leather opera gloves a look that was equal parts timeless and super modern. Last year, she opted for a puffer coat inspired gown in crimson red that was custom designed by Donatella Versace.
