" Joey King , these embroidery are sickening ! "
Every May, all sorts of stars descend upon the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City for the Met Gala.
And this year was no different. The theme wasSuperfine: Tailoring Black Style. Inspired by Monica L. Miller’s 2009 bookSlaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity, the theme was a celebration of Black dandyism, and the dress code was “Tailored for You.”
As a result, menswear and fine tailoring were major themes across many of the looks worn on the iconic Met steps. Stars likeColman Domingoin Valentino…
Zendayain Louis Vuitton…
…and Bad Bunny in Prada were fan favorites.
Another beloved look came courtesy of Joey King.
Making her Met Gala debut, she wore a custom Miu Miu suit adorned with numerous glass (or maybe crystal?) embellishments.
But that’s not all. She paired the gorgeous suit with a checkered white-and-black dress shirt juxtaposed perfectly with a deep red and mustard yellow tie.
She topped it off with an ascot and a brown belt.
The look was a huge hit online with many declaring Joey had one of the best looks of the night:
