Ashley Graham Is Serving 'Supermodel' at the 2026 Met Gala in Her Off-the-Runway DiPetsa Gown

Ashley Graham attends the 2026 Met Gala celebrating "Costume Art" at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 04, 2026 in New York City.

Ashley Graham has proven to be the hostess with the mostest on the 2026 Met Gala red carpet. The supermodel, mogul, and Marie Claire cover star is back in the hosting spotlight for Vogue’s Met Gala livestream, alongside co-hosts La La Anthony and Cara Delevingne. Graham's "Fashion Is Art" look set the tone for fashion's biggest night.

As an early arrival to the May 4 event, Graham ascended the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in a DiPetsa gown and Gianvito Rossi shoes styled by Stella Greenspan. Her flesh-tone dress featured a deep V-neckline, woven mesh detailing, and a sweeping train. The DiPetsa gown is a near replica of a look shown at the designer's Fall 2026 show, only Graham's has an open neckline and dramatic length. With the soft romance of Graham's gown, the designer look was an artistic expression fit for the night's "Fashion Is Art" dress code. The model also sported a stack of diamond earrings, courtesy of Zales, to team with her feminine look.
