Every year the Met Gala is an event that gives celebrities a chance to come up with the most creative dresses they can think of. Each person adds their own style and contributes to the theme of that year, and for the most part has us fawning over their dresses. This year was no different; so many iconic women stood out and wore extravagant, head-turning attire. In case you missed this year’s Met Gala, here are some of the women who had us SHOOK, with their Met Gala dresses.
Kylie Jenner took on a similar dress as Beyonce wore to the 2016 Met Gala, by Versace. Her short, platinum blonde hair and see-through, gem-covered dress still stood out and caught everyone’s eye.
Ruby Rose stepped out in this black and white ruffled Burberry dress. The Orange Is The New Black star, showed off her new dark hair and her expressive arm tattoos, which I’m sure turned heads as she walked through the Met Gala event. Â

No matter what Rihanna wears she always draws attention because of her creative style, but every year us Rihanna fans wait to see how she’ll surprise us at the Met Gala! This year was another successful year, as she was once again one of the Met Gala’s best dressed.
Rita Ora shocked the crowd with this luxurious and innovative dress, that was a custom Marchesa. She looked like an expensive gift to us with her bow, all of her different dress textures and colors and how they smoothly worked together. Her crisp, platinum pixie cut was the cherry on top of her extraordinary outfit at this years’ Met Gala.

No one ever competes with the level of creativity Nicki puts into her outfits!
Blake lively, (featuring Ryan Reynolds) wore an Atelier Versace dress, that drew immediate attention when she walked through. Her beautiful beaded and feather dress was a combination rarely seen in the fashion world. She even had a powerful burst of color at the bottom with vibrant multi-blue feathers.
