If people are going to refer to the Met Gala every year as the "Super Bowl of Fashion" then we're going to treat it like one. Let the spectatorship begin. For the 2023 spectacle, which pays tribute to the late Karl Lagerfeld, there are plenty of viral moments to have us furiously updating our Twitter feeds. From Rihanna's late arrival to the multi-instrumental Gabriela Hearst looks. So between monitoring the red carpet live stream for Choupette (OR DOJA CAT??) and trawling Instagram for all your favourite's and their outfits, divert an eyeball below, where we're compiling a list of the best internet reactions to the 2023 Met Gala. Fanfare, fashion and fantasy, what more could a girlie want?
