Taylor Swift- Swift wore Louis Vuitton, looking like a glam cyborg with cutouts and lace-up boots. Seems like Mad Max was on the mood board

Karlie Kloss- Karlie wore a gold mini dress by Dapper Dan x Gucci with oversized ruffles, like a prom queen who took the theme a little too literally.

Katy Perry- Perry wore a Versace gold mini dress with giant feathered wings, like an angel who crash-landed on a runway.

Kim Petras- Petras turned heads, and not in a good way when she wore a Collina Strada gown featuring a giant horse head on her chest.

Lil Nas X- Lil Nas X wore a gold, armored Balmain outfit that looked like it was made for a superhero movie but we can't help but agree with the critics who said its a bit too much.

Jared Leto- Seems like Leto embraced his inner furry with this giant fluffy custom made Gucci catsuit.

Kanye West- The time Kanye wore an all-black Balmain ensemble with a hoodie and boots, looking like he was auditioning for a role in a post-apocalyptic movie.

Timothée Chalamet- Timothée wore a backless, beige Haider Ackermann suit with a tailored hoodie, but it sadly missed a mark, especially with those shoes.

Kim Kadarshian- Kim surely grabbed everybody's attention with this all-black ensemble by Balenciaga, however most people were just left confused.

Gwyneth Paltrow- Gwyneth Paltrow wore a simple white Ralph Lauren gown with a cape, looking more ready for a normal red carpet than the Met Gala, arguably fashion's biggest night.
