The Met Gala always has celebrities attempting their most high-fashion looks, and this year's theme, "China: Through the Looking Glass," brought out some real 0. While some fits deserved applause, and others treaded near cultural insensitivity (looking at you Sarah Jessica Parker), there's no doubt that Rihanna's massive yellow dress was the most talked about outfit of the night.
Designed by Chinese couture designer Guo Pei, the dress was so extravagant?with a super long fur-trimmed cape and hand embroidered flower details?it took one woman two years to finally complete. With the night's theme easy to misinterpret and offend, Rihanna played it smart by choosing a Chinese couturier instead of appropriating Chinese cultural tropes.??
