With the theme of the 2021 Met Gala [1] being "In America: A Lexicon of Fashion," it only makes sense that Team USA Olympic gold medalist Simone Biles is in attendance and shining like a star on the red carpet [2]. And we don't just mean figuratively — the gymnast came dressed in an 88-pound, crystal-embellished dress with starry detailing on the sleeves and pants that she carried through to her hairstyle.
Celebrity Nigella Miller [3] created the slicked-back, low ponytail [4] look for Biles and dressed it up with star-shaped hair clips throughout the back of her head. The hair accessories matched the exact silhouette of the stars on the sleeves and pant-legs of her ensemble, hinting that they were custom made.
If you thought hair accessories were on their way out anytime soon, the Met Gala — including Amanda Gorman's meaningful hairstyle [5] — is proof you're mistaken. Take a closer look at Biles hairstyle ahead.
