Met Gala 2022: Best Celebrity Red Carpet Beauty Looks

Who doesn’t love the Met Gala? Every year celebrities gather in New York City at the request of Anna Wintour to celebrate fashion through an inevitably strange and specific dress code.

This year saw everyone from Kim Kardashian to Simone Ashley don a distinctly opulent style to honour the 2022 Met Gala: “In America: An Anthology of Fashion”.

So strap in and grab your snacks because with the extensive guest list, you’re in it for the long haul.

This is the 2022 Met Gala red carpet beauty review…

Kim Kardashian

You didn’t have to be psychic to predict that people were going to go crazy when Kim Kardashian showed up to the Met Gala with boyfriend Pete Davidson. The intrigue was inevitable. What we weren’t expecting was the simple slip-style dress and refined blonde updo she showcased…

Winnie Harlow

Winnie Harlow really captured our hearts and imaginations when she graced us all with this literal piece of art.

Bella Hadid

All anyone can talk about after Coachella is baby braids, but Bella Hadid’s interpretation for the evening was something we’ve never seen on the red carpet before.

Olivia Rodrigo

If we can’t find replicas of Olivia Rodrigo’s adorable butterfly accessories to wear in our hair by the time spring rolls around, we’re gonna scream.

Kendall Jenner

Kendall Jenner made the case for bleached eyebrows and big lashes. What a match made in heaven.

Hailey Bieber

Trust Hailey Bieber to keep things simple and understated on the red carpet. We’d take issue with it, if it wasn’t so damn good.

Laura Harrier

Laura Harrier’s eyeshadow left us truly mesmerised – that subtle shimmer is everything.

Nicola Coughlan

The Bridgerton star coordinated her eye makeup with her pink and black ensemble perfectly.

Simone Ashley

We NEED to know which products Simone Ashley used to create that wet-look sheen finish on her hair and we need to know NOW.

Gigi Hadid

Gigi Hadid mixed things up with a scarlet moment on the red carpet that she matched with her lipstick and nails.

Lizzo

Lizzo’s hair was one of our favourite looks of the evening and gave us refined glamour and outrageous volume in equal measure.

Chloe Bailey

Chloe Bailey’s neckpiece really stole the show on the red carpet but we were desperately squinting to get a closer look at her yellow inner corner highlight.

Billie Eilish

You can count on Billie Eilish to always do the unexpected at the Met Gala and this year was no exception.

Phoebe Bridgers

Phoebe Bridgers’ hair somehow managed to throw the same shade as her crystal-embellished gown. Magic.

Phoebe Dynevor

Phoebe Dynevor did the impossible, creating a dramatic, gothic look with minimal makeup and long brunette waves.

Kaia Gerber

Kaia Gerber’s hair was a glorious thing to behold. We’re talking bundles of ringlets *chefs kiss*.

Sydney Sweeney

We didn’t think a smokey eye could look this refined but Sydney Sweeney’s shown us that the classic eye look is black tie appropriate.

Iris Law

Blue eyeshadow is bold any day of the week but Iris Law went one step further and smoked out her frosty blue eye makeup to the tops of her cheekbones for maximum impact.

Chloe Grace Moretz

We can’t stop staring at Chloe Grace Moretz’s skin. No seriously, we need to know what base and cheek products she’s wearing because her complexion is flawless.
