These 2023 Met Gala Beauty Looks Are Even Better Up Close

The Met Gala's hotly-anticipated red carpet has died down, and along with countless celebrity outfits paying tribute to the late Karl Lagerfeld (including Doja Cat and Jared Leto facing off as the late designer's famous cat, Choupette), the event gave us plenty of beauty to be inspired by too.

From Emma Chamberlain's matching blue Miu Miu moment to Gigi Hadid's stunning shimmering eyeshadow, we're breaking down just a few of our favourite MET moments.

Emma Chamberlain

Starting the night off, Vogue correspondent Emma Chamberlain matched her blue Miu Miu ensemble perfectly with a similarly hued smokey eye and headband. She finished it off with a peachy lip.

Gigi Hadid

Leave it to Gigi Hadid to pull out all the stops for this year's MET. The model and TV host paired a shimmery silver shadow with a subtle nude lip and plenty of blush, done by her longtime makeup artist Patrick Ta.

Cara Delevingne

Considering this year's Met Gala theme—Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty—it's no surprise Delevingne was in attendance, decked out in a creation designed by the late Lagerfeld himself. The model debuted a shaggy, platinum blonde bob for the occasion, sporting a dark grey smokey eye and pink lips.

Michaela Coel

It was all about luminous skin and jewel-toned eyes for Michaela Coel's MET look. Makeup artist Bernicia Boateng used Pat McGrath's favourites, including the brand's FestishEYES Legendary Wear Liquid Eyeshadow for that subtle pop of colour.

Amanda Seyfried

Voluminous curls and a bold berry lip made up Amanda Seyfried's MET look, a stunning and striking nod to '70s glam.

Rihanna

While arriving fashionably late, Rihanna's Met Gala look was well worth the wait. Channelling a modern bride, the Fenty Beauty mogul paired her Valentino white gown with matching eyeshadow, sculpted cheeks and a signature red lip—all from her eponymous makeup line, of course.
