The 2021 Met Gala is (finally) here - woop and yay! After being postponed from May, the most hotly-anticipated red carpet event of the year (IMO) is, at long last, kicking off in New York City on the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and I COULD NOT be more excited.
As always, this year's shenanigans has a theme, and the one we're rolling with today is In America: A Lexicon of Fashion. Sounds pretty fun huh? Naturally, there are loads of US designer looks and, since we've been waiting so long for the big day to arrive, some truly glorious celebrity outfits too.
Sooo, without further ado, scroll through to see all the best dressed celebrities at the 2021 Met Gala.
