Thought the Met Gala was just about the headline grabbing gowns? Well, yes, that is a big part of the most fashionable event of the year (Katy Perry and Rihanna we’re looking at you). But it’s also a time to celebrate the hottest couples on the planet.
So after perusing the infinitely dreamy and avant-garde sartorial highlights, you will no doubt have found yourself wondering which celebrity couples made their red carpet debuts (and also ogle some very beautiful and familiar duos that kill it each year).
Selena Gomez and The Weeknd were, of course, the biggest talking point of the night. Serena Williams – just days after revealing her pregnancy announcement was actually an ‘accident’ – showed off her baby bump in style, donning a custom-made emerald gown by Atelier Versace. And after making things Instagram official, J.Lo (who chose a full-on Frozen look) was joined by her new boyfriend, baseball player Alex Rodriguez.
Because, if there is one place you and your bae want to show off it’s the Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute Benefit – where OTT fashion is almost a prerequisite.
Grazia rounds up the top 10 duos that made a statement at the Met Gala this year...
