Janelle Monáe Pulls Off Wardrobe Change on Met Gala Steps

Janelle Monáe attends the 2023 Met Gala, themed Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty, benefiting the MET's Costume Institute. The star pulls off an epic wardrobe change on the Met Gala steps, starting off in an oversized, asymmetrical tuxedo dress before rocking a structured, sheer gown.

I don’t understand the media saying she’s worst dressed I loved her look!! Super creative and Innovative!!!

[@donnawestbrook8992]

I do. She looked like an ompah loompah before color TV, and a toddler in a hoop skirt after. The bathing suit underneath was basic too. That could have been a moment, and was missed.

[@iaintoncrack]

Lady Gaga was NOT the first person to do a costume change at the met PLS go touch grass 😭

[@reginarichards6261]

@@iaintoncrackNo, but Gaga was the first to make it iconic and she set the bar high…. Anything after her looks redundant. Janelle had so much more potential to create something more…but she failed.

[@donnawestbrook8992]

@@reginarichards6261 these stars don't design the dresses/costumes. She only had the misfortune of agreeing to wear it.
