If there’s ever an event to rebel against the beauty trends we’ve become accustomed to seeing, it has to be the Met Gala. A time to embrace the unexpected and push the boundaries of beauty, it’s a red carpet unlike any other, and this year, it definitely didn’t disappoint. From showstopping outfits to exciting beauty looks, all our favourite celebrities took to the cream carpet, with their interpretation of the dress code: The Garden of Time.
While make-up was definitely on the maximalist side (hello bold blush), there was one unexpected trend that made an appearance and it provided the perfect antidote to the ultra-polished hair looks we’ve been seeing of late. Rather than big, bouncy blowouts, the ultimate Chloé girl squad made up of Sienna Miller, Zoe Saldana, and Emma Mackey turned things on their head, opting for a more effortless look with soft, boho-inspired waves making a comeback. The effect? An ethereal pairing perfectly matched with the overall theme of this year’s Met Gala: Sleeping Beauties.
