The Met Gala 2024 red carpet was in full bloom, with stars pulling out all the stops to nail the “Garden of Time” dress code.

But while Vogue’s annual fête is known as fashion’s biggest night, stars’ beauty looks were just as show-stopping as their couture. Alongside the stunning couture gowns and avant-garde suits, the red carpet was ablaze with innovative and captivating beauty looks. From blush to micro bangs, coquettish hair bows to bold makeup choices, the 2024 Met Gala was a testament to the creativity and ingenuity of the beauty industry.

Gone is the natural no-makeup-makeup vibe of awards season; stars experimented with messy top knots and pops of blush, making it clear that they were here to make a statement. The word that most often came to mind was “ethereal,” and we have a feeling that the trends we saw tonight will dominate the rest of spring.

The 2024 Met Gala was a celebration of beauty and innovation, with participants interpreting the theme “The Garden of Time” with creative and appealing beauty looks. The red carpet was blazing with magnificence, from dramatic hair makeovers to daring cosmetic choices, demonstrating once more that the Met Gala is the ultimate playground for fashion and beauty fans.
