What the Kardashian-Jenners Wore on the Red Carpet
Kris Jenner kicked things off with a gown inspired by Jackie Kennedy.
Jenner wore a yellow crystal-embroidered caftan by Oscar de la Renta.
She paired the ensemble with elegant white opera gloves and sparkling silver shoes that matched her purse. She also swapped her classic pixie cut for a bob to match the former First Lady’s famous hairstyle.
“I’m just kind of channeling a little Jackie Kennedy tonight,” Jenner told E! on the Met Gala red carpet. “I wanted to do something glamorous and chic — and easy.”
Kim Kardashian also took inspiration from an American icon, sporting a dress once worn by Marilyn Monroe.
Kim slipped into the iconic Bob Mackie dress that Monroe wore to sing happy birthday to President John F. Kennedy nearly 60 years ago.
The reality TV star, who walked the red carpet with Pete Davidson, told Vogue she had to lose 16 pounds to fit into the dress.
Kim completely cut carbs and sugar from her diet to turn her Met Gala dream into a reality, and also spent 14 hours bleaching her hair on Sunday to complete the ensemble.
Kourtney Kardashian coordinated with her fiancé Travis Barker in matching black-and-white outfits.
Both Kourtney and Barker wore Thom Browne at the Met Gala on Monday. The reality TV star told La La Anthony during Vogue’s red-carpet livestream that she was wearing a deconstructed version of Barker’s look.
Barker sported a black coat with tails and a white bow tie, along with a black skirt over black pants. Kardashian wore a cropped white collared shirt, along with a black-and-white dropped-waist skirt.
Khloe Kardashian shimmered in gold from head to toe.
Khloe finally made her Met Gala debut this year, and she opted for a sparkling gold dress covered in 540,000 glass beads — all sewn by hand.
The reality TV star told E! that Moschino designer Jeremy Scott made her outfit “in like 10 days.”
Khloe said that her first time at the Met Gala felt “so scary,” but that she was so happy to be there with her family.
“I’m so excited that we’re all here together,” she told La La Anthony on the red carpet, according to People. “I just had to be a part of this experience. It’s something I have always wanted to do. I need a glass of champagne.”
Kendall Jenner wowed in sheer Prada.
Kendall’s two-piece black ensemble included a sheer netted tank decorated with embellishments.
And her voluminous silk ball-gown skirt featured a flowing train, along with layers of ruching.
Kendall also bleached her eyebrows for the red carpet, giving her beauty look a modern edge.
And Kylie Jenner opted for a wedding dress.
Kylie sported a white wedding dress with a voluminous, ruffled skirt and strapless bodice for her return to the Met Gala red carpet.
Underneath the bodice was a sheer T-shirt, and Jenner accessorized the look with a veil attached to a baseball cap for the “Gilded Glamour” theme on Monday.
According to E!, Jenner’s outfit was from the late American fashion designer Virgil Abloh’s Off-White label. Abloh would often close his fashion shows with a wedding dress, and Jenner’s Met Gala outfit was one such ensemble.
