Ashley Graham and husband Justin Ervin [1] were spotted out in New York City the day after the 2023 Met Gala [2] looking cosy and stylish. Graham, 35, was not about to let up on her Chanel accessories just yet, given the ball's theme [3] that paid ode to Karl Lagerfeld's creations. She toted a quilted denim chain-strap flap bag and slipped into her crystalized logo slingbacks, which peeked out from under her flares.
The supermodel's ribbed sweater set is a different conversation in itself — with holes diagonally placed across the chest to reveal a mesh bra and cutouts that lined her hips and framed her butt, it's an edgy update to athleisure styled to perfection with the help of Emily Evans [4]. Graham also wore architectural earrings and rings of mixed metals and dark sunglasses with thick rims. A metallic curlicue ponytail holder decorated the casual chignon in her hair, and she appeared fresh-faced after what is routinely a long night of partying.
Ervin, 35, complemented his wife in relaxed mint separates, including a Fear of God Essentials hoodie and zip-off cargo pants that he tucked into ribbed socks and lace-up high-tops. His grey beanie was the final touch for a look appropriate for errands. The couple wore their wedding rings proudly as they held hands and embraced one another for a walk down the street.
Merely hours earlier, Graham had hit the red carpet in a "'90s-Chanel pink" Harris Reed corset gown [5] that was something of an architectural masterpiece. The star continued to bring attention to the fluid designer [6], who has crafted avant-garde costume pieces for Florence Pugh [7], Harry Styles, and, memorably, Iman at the 2021 Met Gala [8]. Graham specified the colour pink for this year's Met moment because, as a curve model, most designers present her with all-black options, and she wanted the dress to stand for change — according to Reed's account [9].
