Each year, style enthusiasts wait with bated breath for their favorite celebrities to arrive at the annual Met Gala. While the highly publicized event raises money for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute, it's most notorious for daring beauty looks and over-the-top fashion moments. This year, nail aficionados were in for an early treat: We already knew what supermodel Gigi Hadid's manicure will look like, thanks to celebrity nail artist Mei Kawajiri.
The model debuted a play on the timeless French manicure while she ascended the Met steps, with twists to reference the evening's "Garden of Time" dress code, honoring the upcoming exhibit "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion."
