Camila cabello adopted their own version of the 2024 Met Gala theme: “The Garden of Time.” While her tattered dress sparkled in front of the cameras, the 27-year-old’s accessory in particular caused a stir: a real, dripping ice cube. The truth is Beauty and the Beast Fashion, the ice surrounded a golden rose.
Photographers captured Camila’s unique accessory, which she carried like a handbag as she walked the red carpet on Monday, May 6. In an interview with , she explained the significance of her cool clutch and ripped dress design Extra tonight.
“I feel like it’s impermanence and that things decay over time and that’s where the beauty lies, so there are rips at the ends of my dress, so to speak,” she said, referencing the theme of the event at which “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion” from the Costume Institute was also honored.
After an interviewer pointed out her melting block of ice, the “Bam Bam” hitmaker noted, “It was a handbag, but then it broke about five minutes into the line, so I called my stylist and was like, ‘What should I do?’” “Eventually, Camila decided to “think of it as a clutch.”
“We’re just trying things out here,” she added.
Camila walked the red carpet alone that evening and attended an after-party. Like most attendees, she changed into a different outfit after the upscale event. Arriving at the Standard Met Gala after-party at the Boom Boom Room in New York City, Camila was spotted wearing a little black dress.
There were some unique styles among the celebrity guests at this year’s Met Gala. As always, A-listers from far and wide made their own fashion statements by wearing iconic dresses, pantsuits and more. Although some suspected that the exhibition title “Sleeping Beauty” suggested a fairytale theme, Fashion pointed out that it “has nothing to do with the Brothers Grimm or Disney, but rather is a tribute to clothing and fashion so fragile that it can never be worn again – and therefore sleeping beauties in the carefully curated archives from The Costume” are institute.”
As Camila nodded to “things that decay over time,” Fashion also noted that the 2024 event’s fashion “embodies the beauty of the natural world – its fragility and inevitable decay.”
