The 2022 Met Gala<\/a> is back at full capacity and the many, many<\/em> stars that ascended the staircase at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on Monday night stepped up their looks to match the extravagant dress code: Gilded Glamour. The white tie invite was a nod to the Gilded Age, the time from 1870 to 1890 when wealth prospered.<\/p>\n

This year’s event, which raises funds for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute, kicks off the second installment of September’s “A Lexicon of Fashion” exhibit with the new display, “In America: An Anthology of Fashion.”<\/p>\n

The first Monday in May is always the most important day of the year for fashion fans because of how over-the-top and glam the stars go \u2014 and this year was no different. See the most head-turning, high-fashion, stop-and-stare creations that graced the carpet.<\/p>\n

Blake Lively<\/h4>\n

The co-chair of the night had the ultimate<\/em> dress reveal, when she unraveled the bow on her Atelier Versace gown to reveal a long statement train<\/a> that turned her gold design into a green gown, a nod to the Statue of Liberty which turns colors when it oxides. Her entire look was inspired by N.Y.C. landmarks, including 12 zodiac constellations on the skirt which mimics the ceiling of Grand Central and the bodice which mirrors the architecture from the Empire State Building.<\/p>\n

She paired it all with custom jewelry from Lorraine Schwartz, who collaborated with Lively for her partly oxidized copper tiara that symbolizes the Statue of Liberty, featuring approximately 100 carats of nude and bronze-colored diamonds and Paraiba tourmaline gemstones. Her crown\u2019s seven spikes channeled the Statue of Liberty, which has seven spikes to symbolize the seven seas. And she topped it all off with earrings featuring 90 carats of diamonds and emeralds.<\/p>\n

Kim fully committed to fit into Marilyn Monroe\u2019s 1962 Swarovski-covered<\/a> shimmering Jean Louis dress (the one she wore to sing “Happy Birthday” to President John F. Kennedy) by losing 16 pounds in three weeks. “I tried it on and it didn\u2019t fit me. So I looked at them, and I said, \u2018Give me like 3 weeks.\u2019” She lost the weight even though “it was such a challenge. It was like a role. I was determined to fit it!”<\/p>\n

Sarah Jessica Parker<\/h4>\n

Sarah Jessica Parker tapped Christopher John Rogers to help create her Met Gala look, which was inspired by the designer Elizabeth Hobbs Keckley, who made many of Mary Todd Lincoln’s dresses. “I actually found a dress by a seamstress, an extraordinary woman who’s been a close friend and confidant of Mary Todd Lincoln, her name was Elizabeth Hobbs Keckley,” Parker told Vogue<\/em> on the carpet. “She designed all of Mrs. Lincoln’s clothes. She’d been born into slavery and got her way out of slavery and had an enormously accomplished and inspiring and extraordinary life so this dress I thought was really exquisite and pretty much fit the period of time of which Andrew Bolton had focused this exhibit.”<\/p>\n

She topped it off the black, gray and white off-the-shoulder long-sleeve ballgown with a feathery pink-accented headpiece by Philip Treacy and jewels from Fred Leighton.<\/p>\n

The superstar singer collaborated with Ralph Lauren on her shimmering halter gown with striped beaded bodice and matching headpiece. “We did Gilded Glamour from the future,” Mon\u00e1e said on the carpet of working with Ralph Lauren. “I feel like I’m in a movie right now.” She accessorized with jewels from Nikos Koulis and ring from Delfina Delettrez.<\/p>\n

The model said inspiration for her ivory silk Saint Laurent by Anthony Vaccarello halter gown with ostrich feather cape came from “an old Jerry Hall YSL reference.”<\/p>\n

“I loved that reference and I’m super happy how it came out,” Bieber told Vogue<\/em> on the carpet of a similar look Hall modeled in the brand’s Haute Couture Spring\/Summer 2002 runway show. Bieber paired the look with Wolford tights and Tiffany & Co. diamond earrings, ring and seven different bracelets.<\/p>\n

The supermodel’s strapless ruched top and evening skirt was adorned with a large red bow that cascaded into a long two-piece train.
