- Many celebrities attended the "Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty" Met Gala on Monday in unique looks.
- Some Met Gala outfits had subtle nods to the theme or paid homage to past runway looks.

Dua Lipa wore a vintage Chanel bridal dress to her second Met Gala. She accented the dress with an over-100-carat Tiffany necklace that she described as being straight from the vault.
The gown was previously worn by model and Lagerfeld muse Schiffer in 1992. Dua Lipa may have chosen the bridal gown because Lagerfeld famously ended his runway shows with a bridal look.
Chloe Fineman wore a crystal cat clutch, a reference to Lagerfeld's beloved cat, Choupette.
