The debuts
Actor and co-host of the Met Gala, Chris Hemsworth, made a glitzy entrance with his wife, Elsa Pataky.
The pair looked regal on the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Hemsworth opted for a classic cream suit by the master of tailoring Tom Ford, while Elsa glistened in a golden semi-sheer gown topped with a crown of twisting gilded vines.
Hemsworth is a co-host for this year’s Met Gala alongside Zendaya, Jennifer Lopez, and Bad Bunny.
“The Garden of Time” dress code draws inspiration from J.G. Ballard’s 1962 short story of the same name.
Icon and cover star of our latest Power issue, Shakira has officially made her Met Gala debut.
Earlier this year, the singer-songwriter and all-out superstar sat down with our Editor-In-Chief, Andrea Thompson, ahead of our New York shoot.
She's seen here, in a trademark shade of fiery red, wearing a Carolina Herrera gown with towering satin platforms in a matching shade of fire engine red.
