The 2017 Met Gala was held last night at the Metropolitan Museum of Art (Met) in New York. While last year's event ran under the banner of Manus x Machina: Fashion in an Age of Technology, this year's theme was Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons, a tribute to the iconic Japanese fashion designer who will also be showcasing her timeless works in a follow-up exhibition at the Met titled Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons: Art of the In-Between.

The exclusive event was hosted by high-profile individuals including Anna Wintour, Katy Perry and Pharrell Williams — who was recently seen in Chanel's short film campaign for the Gabrielle bag. See the best of the red carpet arrivals now...
