Cardi B has made a bold choice for the upcoming Met Gala in 2023, opting to sport a ‘gray’ look. The rapper has decided to go back to her icy silver shade from 2021 and even joked that it was reminiscent of Karl Lagerfeld’s iconic style. However, her new gray hair is in sharp contrast to her earlier appearance as she had donned two very distinct outfits that evening. Known for her show-stopping red carpet looks, Cardi B recently admitted feeling the pressure to outdo herself each time she walks the runway. The 2023 Met Gala will be held at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art and has reverted to its traditional date of the first Monday in May, just one year after the 2022 event.
Cardi B is among the A-list celebrities who attended this year’s Met event, which was themed ‘In honor of Karl’, as a tribute to the late Karl Lagerfeld. The stars turned up in extravagant outfits, making it a glamorous occasion. However, Cardi B has shared that she experiences anxiety every time she attends the Met event, with the feeling growing more intense after her first visit. Despite the fun, the pressure and expectations seem to weigh on her, causing her anxiety to escalate.
Cardi B experienced anxiety about trying to surpass her previous Met Gala looks, particularly with her stunning velvet dress designed by Chen Peng Studio at the 2023 event. The dress boasted a velvet skirt adorned with large black flowers, paying homage to Karl Lagerfeld, a sleeveless white shirt, and a black tie. Cardi B acknowledged that people expect her to outdo herself each year, which can be a daunting task. During the Met Gala festivities, she wore four different outfits, including a pink mermaid gown with silver trim, a pink tweed houndstooth gown designed by Richard Quinn, and a black Chenpeng Studio gown inspired by Karl Lagerfeld’s signature look.
Cardi B made a bold statement at the Met Gala in 2023 with her after-party outfit. The stunning skin-tight gown was custom-made by Sergio Castaรฑo Peรฑa of the Syndical Chamber. The unique design featured laser-printed news articles about Karl Lagerfeldโs debut collection for Chanel on luxurious velvet-silk material.
In 2021, Cardi wowed fans with her first silver hairstyle. The detailed look included side bangs and a Snow Queen high ponytail with a chilly gray finish. Known for her expert color transformations, Cardi’s grey locks are certainly a fan favorite.
