MET Gala 2019 Red Carpet Arrivals - Camp, Couture, and Celebrities

The 2019 Met Gala was a night of glamour, fashion, and camp. The theme of the event was "Camp: Notes on Fashion," and the red carpet was awash in over-the-top gowns and suits that celebrated the intersection of fashion and camp.
Here are some of the most memorable looks from the 2019 Met Gala red carpet:
Lady Gaga: The singer-songwriter went all out in a six-look fashion show that took place on the red carpet. The looks ranged from a robotic suit to a giant wedding dress, and they all celebrated the theme of "Camp."
Billy Porter: The actor turned heads in a custom-made suit by The Blonds that was inspired by the Egyptian god Ra. The suit was made of gold lamé and feathers, and it featured a towering headdress that was made of ostrich feathers.
Cardi B: The rapper looked like a goddess in a custom-made Moschino gown that was inspired by a placenta. The dress was made of red latex and lace, and it featured a plunging neckline and a long train.
Kacey Musgraves: The country singer went for a more subtle take on camp in a custom-made Louis Vuitton gown that was inspired by a plastic bag. The dress was made of clear plastic and sequins, and it featured a plunging neckline and a thigh-high slit.
Jared Leto: The actor carried his own head on a golden platter as he walked down the red carpet. The head was a replica of Leto's own head, and it was made of wax and gold.
In addition, there were also a number of other celebrities who turned heads on the red carpet. Here are a few of the highlights:
Kendall Jenner: The model looked stunning in a custom-made Versace gown that was made of sheer fabric and sequins. The dress featured a plunging neckline and a thigh-high slit, and it showed off Jenner's incredible figure.
Gigi Hadid: The model looked like a princess in a custom-made Tommy Hilfiger gown that was made of white lace and chiffon. The dress featured a sweetheart neckline and a long train, and it was accessorized with a tiara and a pair of diamond earrings.
Zayn Malik: The singer looked dapper in a custom-made Versace suit that was made of black velvet and gold lamé. The suit featured a peak lapel and a satin shawl collar, and it was accessorized with a black tie and a pair of gold cufflinks.
Blake Lively: The actress looked like a goddess in a custom-made Versace gown that was made of gold silk and chiffon. The dress featured a plunging neckline and a long train, and it was accessorized with a diamond necklace and a pair of gold earrings.
Lupita Nyong'o: The actress looked stunning in a custom-made Ralph Lauren gown that was made of black lace and chiffon. The dress featured a plunging neckline and a long train, and it was accessorized with a diamond necklace and a pair of gold earrings.
