While the theme of this year’s 2024 Met Gala was “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion,” Karol G’s red-carpet arrival thoroughly woke us up last night. What stole the spotlight? The theatrical creation by Marc Jacobs, adorning “La Bichota” as she made her grand debut at Met Gala 2024.
On a night when inventive celebrity-designer partnerships are a main highlight, the unexpected and spectacular collaboration between Karol G and Marc Jacobs stood out. Their joint effort resulted in a design marked by ethereal transparencies and bold volumes, with gold taking center stage, elegantly draping the singer and sculpting her silhouette into one of the evening’s unequaled stars.
With her trademark pink locks gone platinum blonde and a natural makeup look, the Colombian artist interpreted the event’s theme with a twist, opting for the sparkle of gemstones and the allure of chiffon in a gown that transformed her into a veritable woodland fairy. Fantasy served as the overarching motif—perhaps embodied most notably (and playfully!) by the singer’s elfin ear accessories. This whimsical touch fit into the wide range of references to classic fairytales embraced by guests throughout the night.
Accessory-wise, Karol G opted for Marc Jacobs’s iconic XL platform boots, along with a tiara echoing the intricate beauty of her dress’s jewels. It was a magical touch for a night that the singer will undoubtedly never forget, and one that won’t easily fade from the memories of the other attendees (or lucky lookers-on), either.
