Skipping out on the 2021 Met Gala, Beyoncé seems to be having more fun on her trip to Europe with her family! The newest Tiffany & Co. ambassador has been all smiles as she spends quality time with her family in Italy and France. Of course, Beyoncé has been slaying vacation Bey-style by capturing the moments and her looks.
You ask, we answer! @theclosetratchet says, “Omg what is Bey wearing?! This is so cute!!”
Switching locations, Beyoncé was spied soaking up the sun with Jay-Z and Rumi Carter, who happily clung to her parents, in Cannes, France! The singer was outfitted in a chic $619 orange and white romper from Rowen Rose. From the brand’s Spring/Summer 2021 collection, the romper draws cues from 1960s beachwear with its cheeky color choices and spirited designs. Beyoncé completed the look with a simple pair of white sunglasses.
You ask, we answer! @beyhypebrasil says, “Hi! Details of this look? I love it”
During a boat trip with hubby Jay-Z, Beyoncé rocked custom David Koma look. Ultimately, Queen Bey wears the brand’s $1,965 crystal chain mini dress in an orange colorway without the two front pockets. Going for a full orange vibe, she accessorized the look with $645 orange The Attico “Devon” mules, custom PHILÓ sunglasses, and $690 L’AFSHAR “Eva” bag. She then rounded the look off with an Alessandra Rich choker necklace.

Fashion is back in full swing. First, we had NYFW followed by the 2021 MTV VMAs. On Monday night, the annual Met Gala made its return to NYC after skipping out on its usual first Monday in May last year due to the global pandemic. With the theme of “America: The Lexicon of Fashion” in place, celebrities flooded the carpet of the Met in their best interpretations of the theme.
Of course, Fashion Bomb Daily was on the scene to capture all of the looks presented for the evening! Based on your engagements during our Met Gala coverage, we rounded up the top 10 best dressed celebrities of the evening. Let’s see who made the cut for this year’s 2021 Met Gala:
Iman took the number one spot for the best look at the 2021 Met Gala! Giving us all the drama we longed for at one of the biggest fashion events of the year, Iman truly understood the assignment. The longtime supermodel wore a custom caged gown and headpiece by Harris Reed and Dolce and Gabbana, both of which were adorned with shimmering gold and sashaying feathers. When the designer decided to go with Iman for his muse, he shared that he had to go with the “most iconic woman in history” with Iman coming directly to mind. Iman expressed to E!, who covered the event with host Keke Palmer, that she instantly “fell over” when she saw the look. She further added that she loved the look because it felt hopeful and bright after a year of darkness.
Ciara came in second as one who also nailed the theme! The singer wore a custom green sequin dress by Dundas, inspired by America’s favorite pastime of football. The gown presents itself with cutouts on the sides, an open back detail, and a varsity jersey style design complete with the number 3, which happens to her husband’s jersey number. She also sported the Seattle Hawks quarterback’s championship ring as her jewelry accessory. Not to mention, Ciara’s look also served as a homage to American designer Geoffrey Beene and his iconic jersey dresses, further playing on this year’s theme. Her look was styled by Rob Zangardi and Mariel Haenn.
Chloe and Halle Bailey graced the red carpet in custom looks by Rodarte, styled by Max Ortega. Chloe’s gown appeared in white complete with a floor length cape and a high leg slit. To complete her look, the “Have Mercy” singer wore $750 silver Arielle Baron “Narcissus 95” heels. Halle’s pink fringe look seemed to be inspired by a look from the brand’s Spring 2022 collection, customizing the ensemble to include shorter sleeves, a plunging v-neckline, and v-style hem. Matching her dress’s pink vibes, she rounded it off with $475 Andrea Wazen “Denver” pumps and Irene Neuwirth jewelry.
Arriving fashionably late, Rihanna and A$AP Rocky made quite the entrance in head-turning looks. Styled by Jahleel Weaver, Rihanna wore an oversized black ruffled look by Balenciaga from the brand’s Fall 2021 Couture collection. Seeking her go-to brand, she went with the unreleased black Amina Muaddi “Giorgia” sandal for her shoe of choice. She finished the look with a black skully, or beanie, hat by Stephen Jones and jewelry by Bvlgari and Maria Tash. The Fenty Beauty CEO opted for a makeup look that took cues from the 1920s with the use of dramatic dark tones and a smooth doll-like complexion.
A$AP Rocky wore a full look by ERL, styled by Matthew Henson. His suit look, which featured a black blazer jacket and trousers with a white ruffle button shirt with crystal embellishments, was covered by a multicolor floral print patchwork blanket from the brand’s Spring 2022 RTW collection.
Ayesha Curry and Steph Curry stepped on the red carpet in dazzling looks by Atelier Versace, styled by Jason Bolden. Ayesha’s gown was custom-made to mirror that of American architecture with its shimmery decorations throughout the garment. Steph opted for a classic tuxedo complete with an ornate shoulder detail. Both looks also incorporated classic Versace touches including Medusa charms plus Barocco and Greca details.
Repping as the brand’s ambassador, Megan Thee Stallion wore a custom Coach gown for her first Met Gala appearance. Styled by Zerina Akers, the “Savage” rapper served up soft Hollywood glam with her strapless Coach gown that was adorned with crystals and a dramatic asymmetrical tulle cascading from the hips to her feet. The Houston hottie also went with a tight wavy hairstyle worn to the side, executed by Kellon Deryck.
Kendall Jenner delivered a captivating style moment in Givenchy at the 2021 Met Gala. Crafted by creative director Matthew Williams, the custom Givenchy gown channeled a Cecil Beaton look worn by Audrey Hepburn in My Fair Lady (1964). Kendall’s gown appears in a sheer fabric that is entirely dripped out in crystals matched with a classic sweetheart neckline and a glistening choker necklace. Her look was styled by Marni Senofonte.
Tessa Thompson stunned on the red carpet in an Iris Van Herpen look, styled by Wayman and Micah. The actress tackled the American cowboy aesthetic by wearing a cowboy hat and Rombaut heeled knee high cowboy boots with her avant-garde style “Syntopia” dress from the brand’s Fall 2018 collection. It’s giving couture cowgirl!
Lupita Nyong’o is one who doesn’t disappoint when it comes to any red carpet event. The actress delivered a stunning look on the red carpet in a denim Atelier Versace gown, styled by Micaela Erlanger. Honoring American denim, the dress presents itself in a tube style with no straps that is elegantly draped and stitched to perfection in classic blue denim. The gown surprises with an underlying crystal-adorned detail which exposes itself slightly with a leg slit. Done by Vernon François, Lupita then opts for a wispy afro for her hairstyle which is inspired by the art of Brooklyn native Lorna Simpson.
Natalia Bryant was a dream in Conner Ives at the 2021 Met Gala, styled by Law Roach. Tapping in the American debutante lifestyle, the Demi-Couture dress comes from Conner Ives’s Fall 2021 collection comprised entirely of recycled PET plastic floral sequins in a puffed shape complete with a train. Natalia continues to add the debutante aesthetic by going with big hair as well as rosy makeup. She finishes the look with a pair of pink bow platform sandals.

Telfar is ready to launch the next “it” bag as the brand debuted its new duffle bag at its New York Fashion Week event.
Last year, Telfar‘s shopping bags became one of the hottest “quarantine” items as everyone was at home, shopping online, and more importantly “buying black”. With the three-size “Bushwick Birkin” serving as a coveted item, it became extremely hard to get your hands on one as the bags would instantly sell out upon release. Attempting to combat the bots who were buying the bags in bulk in seconds, the brand soon launched a bag security program as a way to guarantee fans their must-have bags.
Now, Telfar has a new bag on the way in a new shape! The newest Telfar bag takes on the shape of a duffle bag appearing in a cylindrical silhouette with both sides embedded with the brand’s logo. The latest handbag will also come in three sizes (small, medium, and large) in vegan leather like its shopping bags. As of now, designer Telfar Clemens has only shown the black and white versions of the duffle bags, but we speculate that more colors will follow.
In addition to the new bag announcement, Telfar also revealed that it would be launching its own television network through Apple TV known as Telfar TV. The channel will be live for 24 hours a day and comprised of Telfar content from runway shows to fan videos. Once again, the brand continues to emphasize its slogan of “Not for you, for everyone” as all interested parties will be able to view.
During the 24-hour channel, a QR code will pop up randomly for users to purchase the new bags. This latest initiative by Telfar is being used to combat the ongoing bot issue and democratize the brand’s bags to ensure everyone who truly wants the bag receives one. With that being said, Telfar TV releases will not receive public announcements on its social media platform to avoid the prying hands of bots and resellers.
Telfar TV will be available through Apple TV and Roku TV. The newest handbags will be only sold through the television channel.
You ask, we answer! @loveinthedrew asks, “Who makes these shorts?”

After announcing her pregnancy to the world with an emotional video reveal, Kylie Jenner is back on Instagram and stunting in head-turning looks in the streets with her growing baby bump. The Kylie Cosmetics CEO was spotted in NY participating in fashion week festivities including attending designer LaQuan Smith’s Spring 2022 show at the famous Empire State Building.
For the show, Kylie Jenner rocked a look fresh off the runway. The young entrepreneur was outfitted in LaQuan Smith’s Spring 2022 black lace catsuit and wrap skirt paired with a slightly oversized black coat. Posing as the soon-come brand’s first ambassador, she also wore Studio Baković’s “Ellipse Mules” which are unreleased but set to launch soon. She kept her accessories very minimal, opting for a pair of diamond stud earrings. Her look was styled by Mackenzie and Alexandra Grandquist.
For her hairstyle, she went with a pulled back hairdo.
Does this look seem familiar? Kylie Jenner seems to have borrowed some maternity style inspiration from her sister Kim Kardashian who wore a similar black lace look while pregnant with her son Chicago. While attending the LACMA in 2015, the SKIMS founder wore a black lace jumpsuit paired with a longline blazer jacket by Givenchy under Riccardo Tisci.
Kris Jenner stunned in a pink suit look as she headed to Paris Hilton’s engagement party in NYC with boyfriend Corey Gamble. Let’s get into the details of her look:
Kris Jenner beamed in head-to-toe Dolce and Gabbana, styled by the brand. Her look included $3,395 shantung silk single-breasted blazer and $1,705 skinny silk pants. She opted for a nude colored top to go under the vibrant pink look. For accessories, the mom-preneur went with Dolce and Gabbana’s $1,545 pink satin and crystal slingback pumps and silver glitter Devotion mini handbag (grab a similar version here). She also wore stud earrings and a drop necklace for jewelry accessories.
She sported her signature pixie short cut for her hairstyle along with pink hints in her rosy makeup look. Her hair was done by Léa Journo with makeup by Etienne Ortega.
