Simply You’s favourite Met Gala looks

The Simply You team pick their must-see red carpet arrivals as the night unfolds.

The 69th annual Met Gala held at The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute is fashion’s big night out for the year.
This year’s exhibition subject, and gala theme, Rei Kawakubo’s designs for Comme des Garçons, is a celebration of the Japanese visionary’s avant-garde designs and ability to challenge beauty, good taste, and fashionability norms.
Although a lot of fashion celebrities left a lot to be desired this year, in tame evening dresses, seeing the glamorous stars that often wear a sleek, sparkly number don suitably more daring and curvaceous creations is a refreshing phenomenon to behold.
Click through team Simply You's picks of their must-see fashion moments as the night unfolds.
