It is the FIRST TUESDAY IN MAY! AKA the day after the Met Gala! This year’s theme was “In America: An Anthology of Fashion” and the dress code was “gilded glamour.”
In case you’re like, “What is the Gilded Age?” Don’t fret. This is how Vogue described the dress code for last night’s festivities:
“The 2022 Met Gala will ask its attendees to embody the grandeur — and perhaps the dichotomy — of Gilded Age New York. The period, which stretched from 1870 to 1890 (Mark Twain is credited with coining the term in 1873), was one of unprecedented prosperity, cultural change, and industrialization, when both skyscrapers and fortunes seemingly arose overnight.”
So, think more Gone With the Wind and less The Great Gatsby.
Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) / Courtesy Everett CollectionOut with the fringe and in with the bustles!
So, without further ado, here are some of the best and not-so-best looks that fit the Met Gala dress code:
1. Understood the assignment: Blake Lively

Taylor Hill / Getty ImagesBlake’s gown started off copper and transformed into this blue skirt to mirror the “petina-ing” of the Statue of Liberty. Pretty cool, IMO.
2. Did not understand the assignment: Amy Schumer
Taylor Hill / Getty ImagesListen, I know that Amy thinks the Met Gala is a joke/a waste of time, but then, like, don’t go?
3. Understood the assignment: Rosalía

John Shearer / Getty ImagesThe train! The sleeve! The embellishments! Gorgeous, gorgeous, gworl.
4. Did not understand the assignment: Kylie Jenner
Taylor Hill / Getty Images
Taylor Hill / Getty ImagesI could MAYBE make an excuse for the top, but the simple top and shudders backward baseball cap… This is TRULY disrespectful to Virgil Abloh’s legacy.
5. Understood the assignment: Kacey Musgraves
Taylor Hill / Getty ImagesIf you’re gonna wear black, this is how you do it! I need to know where to get this feathered fan…
6. Did not understand the assignment: Austin Butler
Dimitrios Kambouris / Getty Images for The Met Museum/VogueYaasss! Give us NOTHING!!!
7. Understood the assignment: Anderson .Paak
Arturo Holmes / Getty Images for The Met Museum/Vogue
Kevin Mazur / Getty Images for The Met Museum/VogueMen! Take notes! It’s a simple silhouette, but it’s all in the details!!!
8. Did not understand the assignment: Mindy Kaling
Jamie Mccarthy / Getty ImagesLike, do I love this dress? Yes. Do I think it’s more appropriate for the Emmys and not the Met Gala? Also yes. She looked more “gilded glamour” when she was stealing from the Met Gala versus attending the Met Gala.
9. Understood the assignment: Chloë Grace Moretz
Dimitrios Kambouris / Getty Images for The Met Museum/VogueI am LIVING for this 19th century-inspired military jacket.
10. Did not understand the assignment: Kodi Smit-McPhee
Taylor Hill / Getty ImagesJeans! JEANS! How was he let onto the carpet?
11. Understood the assignment: Sarah Jessica Parker
Taylor Hill / Getty Images
Kevin Mazur / Getty Images for The Met Museum/VogueSJP needs to teach a master class on how to properly dress on theme to the Met Gala. She! Never! Misses!
12. Did not understand the assignment: Riz Ahmed
Taylor Hill / Getty ImagesI understand that this was an homage to the workers of the late 1800s who the rich made their money off of, BUT….still. No glamour, no dice.
13. Understood the assignment: Alicia Keyes
Jeff Kravitz / FilmMagic / Getty Images
Gotham / Getty ImagesShe took “concrete jungle where dreams are made of” to a whole new level.
14. Did not understand the assignment: Jack Harlow
Mike Coppola / Getty ImagesThis PAINS ME! I LOVE JACKMAN! But, man, he missed the mark. If he needs personal lessons on how to dress on theme, I am available.
15. Understood the assignment: Nicola Coughlan
Jeff Kravitz / FilmMagic / Getty Images
Jeff Kravitz / FilmMagic / Getty ImagesShe is DEF gonna be the talk of the ton after showing up in this look.
16. Did not understand the assignment: Sebastian Stan
Jeff Kravitz / FilmMagic / Getty ImagesNow if this was the “Camp”-themed Met Gala…
17. Understood the assignment: Billie Eilish
Sean Zanni / Patrick McMullan via Getty ImagesMy kingdom for a bustle!!
18. Did not understand the assignment: Bradley Cooper
Sean Zanni / Patrick McMullan via Getty ImagesWhy even bother showing up if this is all you’re gonna give?
19. Understood the assignment: Jasmine Tookes
Taylor Hill / Getty Images
Jeff Kravitz / FilmMagic / Getty ImagesThis was one of the VERY few jewel-toned looks on the carpet, so even though it’s a simpler silhouette, I had to include it because it’s still giving opulence.
20. Did not understand the assignment: Gigi Hadid
NDZ / GC Images / Getty ImagesCut the cameras…deadass.
21. Understood the assignment: Yahya Abdul Mateen II
Dimitrios Kambouris / Getty Images for The Met Museum/VogueCandyman? More like DANDYMAN!
22. Did not understand the assignment: Olivia Rodrigo
Gotham / Getty Images
Gotham / Getty ImagesI love Olivia, but this girl needs to fire her stylist, because they have committed one too many offenses against her regarding her wardrobe.
23. Understood the assignment: Cardi B
Jeff Kravitz / FilmMagic / Getty Images*Alexa, play “Golden” by Harry Styles*

Gotham / Getty ImagesDespite the feathered trim, this looks was just…underwhelming? Especially compared to the other looks on the carpet.
25. Understood the assignment: Lizzo
Jeff Kravitz / FilmMagic / Getty Images
Mike Coppola / Getty ImagesIt’s the golden flute for me.
26. Did not understand the assignment: Emma Stone
Sean Zanni / Patrick McMullan via Getty ImagesCould she…not borrow a costume from Cruella?
27. Understood the assignment: Amber Valletta
Kevin Mazur / Getty Images for The Met Museum/Vogue
John Shearer / Getty ImagesBefore Rihanna, there was Amber Valletta, the OG queen of the Met Gala. All hits, no misses.
28. Did not understand the assignment: HoYeon Jung
Theo Wargo / WireImage / Getty ImagesI LOVE MY SQUID GWORL, BUT THIS DIDN’T EVEN COME CLOSE TO HITTING THE MARK.
29. Understood the assignment: Taylor Hill
