Sheer dresses, corsets, floral appliques, and lace dominated The Met Gala 2024 red carpet. With a great bunch of first-time attendees, family gatherings, and pregnancy announcements, this year's red carpet was one to remember.
But what happens next? With countless after-parties around New York City celebrating fashion's biggest night out, the looks continue way past Met's doors.
In true after-hours style, we witnessed plenty more skin, lace, and boudoir-esque corsetry. From Kendall Jenne's two after-party dresses sourced straight from Givenchy's Spring/ Summer 1997 collection and a custom lace number by Andreas Kronthaler at Vivienne Westwood to Janelle Monáe's Area mini dress that genuinely had us seeing stars.
So here's to more incredible vintage, floral motifs and different iterations of this year's "A Garden of Time" dressing theme. Below, we rounded up the best Met Gala 2024 after-party looks.
Kendall Jenner
Wearing not one but two after-party looks, we have Kendall Jenner in an angelic winged look from Givenchy's Spring/Summer 1997 collection by Alexander McQueen paired with sleek Jimmy Choo Etana heels.
Janelle Monáe
Truly the queen of The Met Gala after party looks, Janelle Monáe wears a mini dress from Area.
Emily Ratajkowski
Emily Ratajkowski looks incredible in a full, see-through, hand-beaded 1998 Givenchy dress by Alexander McQueen. Topped with a custom bra and thong replica of the original undergarments from Victoria's Secret.
Sydney Sweeney
Going strong with her chic new dark bob, Sydney Sweeney looks incredible in this Miu Miu triangle top and midi skirt combo.
Ayo Edebiri
Opting for a comfortable suede boot, we can't help but love Ayo Edebiri's comfortable and chic look.
Vittoria Ceretti
The Italian model looked incredible in a sheer mini dress paired with sleek leather gloves by Alaïa.
Coco Rocha
Another incredible show-stopping look from Coco Rocha, who wears a long-wrapped tulle dress with a fishtail finish by Christian Siriano.
Winnie Harlow
The physical embodiment of casual cool, Winnie Harlow looked incredible in white undone cargos, a simple statement vest and silver accessories.
Paloma Elsesser
Taking us back to Madonna's iconic Jean Paul Gaultier cone bra, this iteration on Paloma Elsesser is regal, modern, and incredibly chic.
FKA Twigs
FKA Twigs looks incredibly effortlessly cool in a khaki maxi dress with a sleek high-slit cut on the leg.
Charlie XCX
We are loving this edgy mini dress on Charlie XCX.
Richie Shazam and Lana Del Rey
An ethereal pair if we ever did see one. Looking incredible in shades of purple and ecru, we are obsessed with Richie Shazam's braided look and Lana Del Rey's modern bridal look.
Irina Shayk
The supermodel looks incredible in this sleek mini-dress iteration of her red carpet gown paired with chic sheer tights and impeccable bespoke Swarovski jewellery. Shayk wears a bedazzled Millenia choker and earcuffs with layers of Hyperbola and Millenia bracelets, all in luminous clear crystal from the Austrian jewellery house.
Cardi B
Looking like a true vision in red, Cardi B stuns in a lingerie inspired corset dress from Revolve Atelier.
