2023 Met Gala: Kendall Jenner flashes her derrière and TOWERS over her sisters in massive platforms

Kendall Jenner put on a very sassy display in a sequined black bodysuit with long sleeves and a sparkly silver collar designed by Marc Jacobs to the 2023 Met Gala in New York City on Monday.

Walking the red carpet in a pair of gothic platform shoes, the 27-year-old supermodel flashed her bare butt to the world as a sea of ​​adoring photographers rushed to capture her walk to the stars.

To mark the occasion, the reality star, who is rumored to be dating Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny, paid tribute to the late fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld by rocking her lustrous auburn locks in a bouncy, high ponytail with perfectly coiffed ends.

The daughter of Kris Jenner and Caitlyn Jenner clearly wasn’t afraid to show off her assets as she caught the eye of her longtime best friend, Gigi Hadid, crossing paths at the star-studded event.

Seeing her boyfriend, the founder of 818 Tequila sighed and looked over her shoulder in Hadid’s direction before they rejoined.

In addition, the five-foot-tall runway queen posed for a family photo with younger sister Kylie Jenner and their half-sister, Kim Kardashian.

Since 2014, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians have attended the Met Gala eight times and stood out at the annual gala after modeling a number of show-stops over the years.

While her beau was also present, they didn’t pose for photos together, and he arrived much earlier in the evening.

During an interview outside the event, Kendall said she feels “amazing” and is “so happy to be here.”

Margot Robbie, Florence Pugh, Vanessa Hudgens, Lily James and Miranda Kerr and Gigi Hadid are also among the faces that will be at the Met Gala.

In addition, Dr. Dre and Nick Jonas are expected on the carpet when the festivities begin.

The 2023 Met Gala returns Monday night to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, where everyone from Sydney Sweeney to Paris Hilton will be on hand to attend the annual fundraising event.

Since 1948, stars have ascended the majestic staircase to a very exclusive party where no selfies are allowed.

Traditionally, the event takes place on the first Monday of May. It is scheduled to begin at 6:30 PM EST on May 1, 2023.

Fans can follow the event in real time via a live stream on Vogue.

This year’s theme is Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty. The late German designer was the creative director of Chanel for a long time. He passed away at the age of 85 in 2019.

His beloved cat, Choupette, is even invited to the festivities.

The decision to honor Karl has sparked controversy given the many offensive comments he’s made over the years, from criticizing the #MeToo movement to opposing same-sex marriage.

“I’m against it for a very simple reason: in the ’60s they all said we were entitled to the difference. And now they suddenly want a civilian life,” he said Shame of same-sex marriage.

‘It’s hard to imagine – one of the daddies at work and the other at home with the baby. What would that be like for the baby? Don’t know. I see more lesbians married with babies than boys married with babies. And I also believe more in the relationship between mother and child than in that between father and child.’

Although he eventually expressed his support for same-sex marriage at his Chanel haute couture show in the spring of 2013, he still said he was “less enthusiastic” about adopting same-sex children, according to the AP.

Along with Vogue Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour, who directs and hosts the annual event, the 2023 MET Gala will also be co-hosted by Penelope Cruz, Dua Lipa, Michaela Coel and also Roger Federer.

While the show may be known for its glitzy and over-the-top red carpet — with details about what goes on inside that often remain mysterious — at its heart, it’s a fundraising event for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute.

Last year, the 2022 MET gala alone raised a total of $17.4 million, reportedly Billboard.

This year, the entry fee has increased from $30,000 to $50,000, according to Page six.

Even if you have the money, that doesn’t guarantee entry to the party.

Every guest must be invited and there is a waiting list for the coveted golden ticket.

And status matters, according to The New York Times.

Paris Hilton is one of the big names attending what will be her first Met Gala.

Meanwhile, Blake Lively, a frequent visitor, announced that she will not be at the party.

“I’ll look,” she said, according People.

Elle Fanning, Kardashian and La La Anthony are among the other celebrities in attendance.

As for Wintour’s role in the bash, Vogue’s editor-in-chief hosts the party and oversees the guest list and even the menu.

She has been the president of the Met Gala since 1994 and continues to stand guard at every event.
