Gigi Hadid adhered to the Met Gala 2024 theme by dressing in a vintage flowery Thom Browne gown – See Pics
Met Gala 2024: On the first Monday of May (early Tuesday in India), Fashion’s Biggest Night arrived, and the world’s most elite gathered on the green-tinged carpet with a sense of excitement and expectation. This year’s celebrity attendees at the ball include Kim Kardashian, Kendall Jenner, and Gigi Hadid. Prominent figures like Anna Wintour, the invincible Jennifer Lopez, Zendaya, Bad Bunny, and the incomparable Chris Hemsworth were among the first A-list guests. Gigi Hadid, without a doubt, caught many eyes in a stunning Thom Browne design that perfectly captured the spirit of vintage Hollywood glitz.
Decoding Gigi Hadid’s 2024 Met Gala Look
Gigi Hadid’s gown had a delicate rose design that cascaded down her shoulders. Her blush beauty and gentle updo matched the attire as she walked the red carpet, giving off an air of classic charm that enthralled spectators.
In detail, Gigi’s off-shoulder gown had a floor-sweeping train, a plunging neckline, and a corseted bodice with ribbon ties tied in the back. She paired the look with rings, dangling earrings, and a choker all made by Chopard. The last touches of glam were a side-parted haircut, blood-red lips, rouge on the cheekbones, and perfectly arched eyebrows.
It took over 70 craftsmen’s years of experience and over 13,500 hours of painstaking labour to create Hadid’s gown. It is a genuine work of love, and the fact that Thom Browne’s archive will always house it speaks to its importance in the history of fashion.
However, it was the attention to detail, rather than simply the looks that helped Gigi stand apart from her contemporaries. People magazine said that her gown had an unusual twist, a tuxedo jacket style, complete with sleeves, a whimsical touch that contributed to her attractiveness. It took five handlers to fluff out its connected train.
People magazine stated that Gigi Hadid gave yellow flowers to supporters in honour of the theme, ‘Garden of Time,’ before her big arrival.
With the Costume Institute display including over 250 items spanning decades of style progression, the Metropolitan Museum of Art became a genuine time capsule as the night went on. The display took visitors on a trip through the diverse tapestry of fashion, from the lavish dresses of Charles Frederick Worth to the cutting-edge designs of contemporary designers.
With legendary designers like Elsa Schiaparelli and Christian Dior taking centre stage, this year’s theme, ‘Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion,’ paid respect to the delicate items that are sometimes ignored in the quick-paced world of fashion. The co-chairs of the evening are Bad Bunny, Chris Hemsworth, Jennifer Lopez, and Zendaya.
