The Wildest, Wackiest, and Most On-Theme Bags on the 2024 Met Gala Red Carpet
When it came to looks at the 2024 Met Gala, no stone went unturned. Even the most minute details were thought outāfrom the 2.8 million beads covering Gigi Hadidās Thom Browne dress to Zendayaās red carpet outfit change.
Bags are often a neglected part of the red carpet experience, either left out of photos or a haphazard, last-minute choice. But at the 2024 Met Gala, the guests didnāt disappoint when it came to their purses.
Some arrived with bags that perfectly complimented their outfits. Nicki Miniaj toted a mini Marni purse that matched her yellow dress, while Gwendoline Christieās Maison Margiela bag matched her burnt orange velvet dress.
Other guests chose bags that referred to the āGarden of Timeā dress code. Ben Simmons carried a Thom Browne briefcase affixed with a clock and Tylaādresses as the sands of timeāheld an hourglass. On the florals front, Camila Cabello carried a block of (melting!) ice with a rose frozen inside from Jane Wade, and Tessa Thompson and Cole Escola both toted fresh flowers.
But perhaps nothing can hold a candle to Michael Shannonās somewhat perplexing Balenciaga chip bag. Weāve all gotta hold our things somehow!
