Popsugar Fashion Celebrity Style The Best Dressed British Celebrities at the 2022 Met Gala Every Head-Turning Red Carpet Look From the 2022 Met Gala 3 May 2022 by Shelcy Joseph Image Source: Getty / John Shearer The 2022 Met Gala made a triumphant return this year on May 2, otherwise known as the first Monday in May, which is when the annual fête traditionally takes place. As the second series in a two-part exhibition titled "In America: An Anthology of Fashion," the annual fundraising event supports the Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. Naturally, a star-studded crowd was in attendance, with headliners including Simone Ashley, who arrived in a sparkling black co-ordinated set by Moschino. Lily James followed suit in a pear-covered gown by Atelier Versace. This year's Met Gala theme is "Gilded Glamour," which invites guests to showcase their sartorial understanding of the Gilded Age, a time of rapid industrialisation in the United States between 1870 and 1900. In fashion, this translated into excess. Embellishments like fringe and ruffles were frequently seen on garments from this period. Clearly, invitees had quite the assignment to nail tonight, and many successfully delivered. Check back here to see how your favourite style stars interpret the theme and get a front-row seat to all the best dressed celebrities on the 2022 Met Gala red carpet. — Additional reporting by Kara Kia Related: Everything to Know About the 2022 Met Gala Gilded Glamour Theme Kate Moss and Lila Moss at the 2022 Met Gala Image Source: Getty / Jeff Kravitz 1 / 20 Jodie Turner-Smith at the 2022 Met Gala Image Source: Getty / Jamie McCarthy 2 / 20 Adwoa Aboah at the 2022 Met Gala Image Source: Getty / John Shearer 3 / 20 Phoebe Dynevor at the 2022 Met Gala Image Source: Getty / John Shearer 4 / 20 Simone Ashley at the 2022 Met Gala Image Source: Getty / John Shearer 5 / 20 Daisy Edgar-Jones at the 2022 Met Gala Image Source: Getty / Dimitrios Kambouris 6 / 20 Nicola Coughlan at the 2022 Met Gala Image Source: Getty / Jamie McCarthy 7 / 20 Lily James at the 2022 Met Gala Image Source: Getty / Kevin Mazur/MG22 8 / 20 Maisie Williams at the 2022 Met Gala Image Source: Getty / Sean Zanni 9 / 20 Lucy Boynton at the 2022 Met Gala Image Source: Getty / Jamie McCarthy 10 / 20 Brooklyn Peltz-Beckham and Nicola Peltz-Beckham at the 2022 Met Gala Image Source: Getty / Matt Winkelmeyer/MG22 11 / 20 Nicola Peltz-Beckham at the 2022 Met Gala Image Source: Getty / Jeff Kravitz 12 / 20 Stormzy at the 2022 Met Gala Image Source: Getty / Mike Coppola 13 / 20 Gemma Chan at the 2022 Met Gala Image Source: Getty / Dimitrios Kambouris 14 / 20 Regé-Jean Page at the 2022 Met Gala Image Source: Getty / Kevin Mazur 15 / 20 Cynthia Erivo at the 2022 Met Gala Image Source: Getty / Taylor Hill 16 / 20 Alexa Chung at the 2022 Met Gala Image Source: Getty / Dimitrios Kambouris 17 / 20 Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner in Louis Vuitton at the 2022 Met Gala Image Source: Getty / Jamie McCarthy 18 / 20 Anna Wintour in Chanel at the 2022 Met Gala Image Source: Getty Images 19 / 20 Phoebe Bridgers and Paul Mescal at the 2022 Met Gala Image Source: Getty / Taylor Hill 20 / 20 Celebrity StyleMet GalaRed CarpetCelebrity NewsBridgerton
