Met Gala 2022

Mirror mirror on the wall, who had the most looks at the Met Gala Ball? Well ,Thom Browne of course.

The Met Gala is back and the red carpet looked like a Thom Browne runway show. Other designers like Gucci and Versace were well-represented but Thom Browne seriously took over with his over-the-top sartorial excellence and couture-like masterpieces. He is truly an artist.

This year’s theme, In America: An Anthology of Fashion was an extension of last year’s In America: A Lexicon of Fashion concept. The “Gilded Glamour” theme was embraced by most attendees. The red carpet shined and sparkled. There were many 19th century inspired looks in futuristic grandeur. Go to Vogue to see every single red carpet look. Our slideshow [above] features Thom Browne looks from his Instagram and each is detailed with construction specifics. It’s impressive.
