Gigi Hadid Stuns in Thom Browne at Met Gala

At this year’s Met Gala, where fashion and fantasy converge, the spectacle was as grand as ever. The world’s most illustrious figures stepped onto the green-tinged carpet, setting the scene for Fashion’s Biggest Night on the first Monday of May (early Tuesday in India). Among the early A-list arrivals, icons like Anna Wintour, Jennifer Lopez, Zendaya, Bad Bunny, and Chris Hemsworth made their presence felt.

The evening saw Gigi Hadid capturing all the attention, channeling old Hollywood glamour in an exquisite Thom Browne gown. This gown, a marvel of design, boasted elaborate rose detailing that draped elegantly off her shoulders, exuding a classic charm. Her appearance was enhanced by a soft updo and rosy makeup, which perfectly complemented her outfit’s vintage feel and left onlookers enchanted.

However, it was the meticulous craftsmanship of Hadid’s attire that truly set it apart. According to People magazine, her dress featured a unique tuxedo jacket silhouette with sleeves, adding a playful yet sophisticated twist. The gown also required five handlers to manage its voluminous train, underscoring the grandeur of her ensemble.

In a heartfelt nod to the evening’s theme, ‘Garden of Time,’ Hadid was reported by People magazine to have handed out yellow roses to fans before making her grand entrance. This gesture tied beautifully with the gala’s floral motif.

The creation of Hadid’s gown was an extraordinary endeavor, involving more than 70 artisans who dedicated over 13,500 hours to its construction. This labor of love is set to be preserved in Thom Browne’s archive, cementing its place in fashion history.
