Emily Blunt's Spiky Bun at the Met Gala Is Very '90s Punk

Emily blunt at the met gala 2026.

There has not been a shortage of gorgeous Met Gala beauty looks this year. With a theme of "Costume Art" and a dress code of "Fashion Is Art," designers, fashion insiders, and celebrities pulled out all the stops. Case in point: Emma Chamberlain's neon yellow inner corner eyeshadow, Sunday Rose's pink lids, Nicole Kidman's mermaid hair. But I'd be remiss not to shout out Emily Blunt's spiky bun, which is very '90s and very sleek.

According to hairstylist Laini Reeves, who was responsible for tonight's look, the hairstyle was inspired by a '90s look Guido Paolo created for Kate Moss. "The military-style corset had a lot of detailing and a high neck, so the hair had to go away and we had to keep it very tight," says Reeves. "I wanted it to look really wet and high-shine."
