Met Gala 2026: Beyoncé, Rihanna Lead Best-Dressed Red Carpet
Dazzling red carpet moments at Met Gala 2026—from Isha Ambani’s 1,800-carat diamond ensemble to Raja Ravi Varma tributes.
Met Gala 2026 delivered fireworks on the red carpet as a constellation of stars turned out in couture that spoke loudly. Beyoncé and Rihanna led the charge as best-dressed on the night, with Anne Hathaway not far behind, while Indian mega-stars stole the show in their own dazzling ways. Isha Ambani arrived in an ensemble centered around an 1,800-carat diamond centerpiece, and Sudha Reddy turned heads with a $15 million, 550-cararat Tanzanite necklace from her collection. Karan Johar offered a Raja Ravi Varma tribute that drew applause from guests and commentators alike.
On the jewelry front, Ambani’s diamond look and the Tanzanite necklace on Reddy’s neck kept watchers buzzing, while Heidi Klum brought Halloween Queen energy, delivering a goth-glam aura that felt right at home on the Met carpet.
Rihanna's bold color, Beyoncé's glow, and Anne Hathaway's elegant silhouette kept the carpet lively, as fashion critics highlighted the night’s trend toward maximalist jewelry and dramatic silhouettes.
Other designers leaned into tributes and nods to classic art, with outfits that felt like a modern art gallery while still being wearable on the red carpet.
We’re already counting down to the after-parties and the next wave of fashion commentary, as this year’s Met Gala once again sets a high bar for couture, celebrity moment, and jewelry moments.
