Down memory lane: Most striking looks from the Met Gala

Priyanka Chopra, who attended the Met Gala for the third time last year, turned heads, just like her previous appearances. If we might add, this by far was her best look. Sending shockwaves in a dramatic Dior gown from its Spring 2018 collection, the actor reminded us of Edward Scissorhands from the 1990 fantasy film of the same name. Some even likened her to the Mad Hatter from Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland. Feather details added drama to the nude-coloured gown. (Photo: AP)

Lady Gaga, as expected, raised the bar by putting up a wonderful show for her fans and fashion connoisseurs at the Met Gala 2019. High on drama, she arrived wearing a giant pink dress with a parachute skirt, an eye-catching 25-foot train and a matching bow on her head, all from her good friend Brandon Maxwell’s brand. Along with her, came the designer and her entourage of men, holding umbrellas. (Photo: AP)
