From the moment the Met Gala red carpet opens each year, one question is on every diehard fashion lover’s lips: Will Rihanna, the queen of the Met, show up?
Happily, the answer this year was yes: the superstar arrived in custom, sculptural Maison Margiela by Glenn Martens for the affair, tonight complete with an Art Deco-style headpiece. Drawing off the label’s Artisanal 2025 collection, the star donned its draped column silhouette inspired by the medieval architecture of Flanders, a northern region of Belgium. (Martens is a Belgian designer.) The high-fashion moment was styled by Jahleel Weaver.

The striking gown—which was sculpted by hand—was made in duchess woven silk, with recycled metal threads that are typically used for computer wiring. The corseted bodice also features over 115,000 crystal beads, antique jewels, and chains. It took 1,380 hours for the embroidery alone.
A$AP Rocky, meanwhile—sporting custom Chanel by Matthieu Blazy—was hot on her heels. The rapper donned a wool pink robe with black satin lapels and black piping details, embellished with a black silk and feather camélia. He paired it with black trousers and a white cotton shirt. 194 hours were required in the making of this look, finished off with Chanel’s High Jewelry pieces.
