The 2024 Met Gala's red carpet extravaganza has officially wrapped up at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Otherwise known as fashion's biggest night of the year, stars from around the world gathered to showcase their most showstopping looks.

This year's showcase, "Sleeping Beauties: Reviving Fashion," examines how technology can breathe new life into garments that are too old and fragile to be worn again. The official dress code? “The Garden of Time”. Think — creations inspired by plants, flowers and other botanicals.

Like previous years, a notable array of Asian faces graced the carpet at the Met Gala. Starting from Jennie Kim who took the crowd by storm with a custom cobalt blue Alaïa minidress, K-pop sensation, Stray Kids, who were dressed in dapper suits for the evening, and not to mention, the stunning Michelle Yeoh who arrived in a bold tin-foil Balenciaga gown.
