Met Gala 2023: Rita Ora stuns as husband Taika Waititi breaks 'boring' tux tradition

Rita Ora and her husband Taika Waititi looked absolutely amazing as they rocked the Met Gala red carpet on Monday evening.

The pair certainly turned heads with their stunning appearance at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.

The annual event saw the Brit singer, 32, display a glorious black sheer gown which perfectly showed off her amazing physique. The eye-catching outfit boasted an emphatic train which was carefully looked after as she sizzled in front of the camera.

To complete the look, Rita wore $90k worth of Buccellati jewellery as she shone from all angles. Among the beautiful picks was a pearl bracelet and long diamond extensions which hung off the end of her pristine manicure.

Fans were quick to praise her look online, with her appearance immediately being praised for being one of the "favs".

One Twitter user wrote: "Rita Ora is the moment. #MetGala."

While all eyes were set on Rita, hubby Taika, 47, made sure he avoided the boring plain blac tuxedo look some celebrities are lambasted for at the event.

While there is nothing wrong with a crisp looking tux, fans of the fashion world have been known to hit out at the stereotype look and urged those in attendance to mix it up.

And that's exactly what the director did. He looked amazing in a long gun metal blazer which he paired with a smart pair of white trousers.

He opted to go shirtless for the wow factor and added extra detail to his extravagant style with daring pearls and a black floral corsage.

The duo were among the first to arrive at the showstopper which had a Karl Lagerfeld theme this year in tribute to the late designer.

Rita initially teased a different look on Instagram a day earlier. The star shared several pictures of herself in the outfit, and one from 2016, posing with former Chanel creative director Karl.

In the caption, Rita wrote: "In memory of Karl I had to bring back this custom piece he made me for a Chanel show performance I did with him in Monaco back in 2016. See you tomorrow!!"
