Choupette’s papa Karl would surely be proud.
Is this the Met Gala 2023 red carpet or the swankiest wedding we’ve ever seen?

This year’s evening, co-chaired by Penélope Cruz, Michaela Coel, Roger Federer, and Dua Lipa, celebrates The Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute’s latest exhibition, “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty.” Inspired by the late-great designer’s work with Chanel, Fendi, Chloé and more, the dress code was to pay tribute to his legacy in the only way Lagerfeld would want: through fashion.
As predicted, there was a sea of tweed, black and white, and vintage but no one could’ve been prepared for this many Chanel brides. Famously, Lagerfeld started the tradition of closing Chanel shows with a euphoric white bridal look in 1984. Since then, it’s become a mainstay and one of his definitive legacies. And today on the Met Gala 2023 red carpet, many celebs took note. Co-chair Dua Lipa looked effortlessly elegant in vintage Chanel tweed ballgown, famously worn by Claudia Schiffer in 1992. Gisele proved she never needs a plus one and looked fabulous in another Chanel throwback from 2007. And Nicole Kidman re-wore her dress from her Chanel No. 5 commercial directed by Baz Luhrmann.
Another major highlight was seeing how other designers interpreted the iconic designer’s signature style. Emily Ratajkowski looked Lagerfeld-approved in a light beige Tory Burch dress. Emma Chamberlain’s Miu Miu ensemble was an ode to his love of suits. And Maya Hawke looked cozy in feather couture by Prada.
