Shakira Shines Bright at Met Gala Debut: A Flamenco-inspired Fashion Moment
Met Gala 2024 theme
Shakira made her debut appearance at the Met Gala on May 6, stunning in a vibrant red gown designed by Carolina Herrera. The dress featured a dramatic train and cape adorned with voluminous ruffled sleeves reminiscent of an abstract rose, along with a sexy high slit, an open back, a low-cut sweetheart neckline, and skin-baring cutouts on the sides. A diamond starburst ornament with a matching red stone added a touch of sparkle to the ensemble.
Accompanied by Carolina Herrera creative director Wes Gordon on the red carpet, Shakira accessorized with simple red platform heels and a diamond rope necklace. Her long hair was styled in natural waves, and her makeup was kept simple and understated.
The Costume Institute exhibit at this year’s Met Gala showcased approximately 250 items spanning over 400 years of fashion history. Among the pieces on display were an 1877 Charles Frederick Worth silk satin ball gown and designs from iconic fashion houses such as Elsa Schiaparelli, Yves Saint Laurent, Christian Dior, and Hubert de Givenchy.
Shakira wasn’t the only celebrity making her Met Gala debut in 2024. Chris Hemsworth, one of the event’s co-chairs, attended for the first time. He was selected by Anna Wintour along with Zendaya, Jennifer Lopez, and Bad Bunny.
Although this was Shakira’s first time attending the Met Gala, she’s no stranger to high-profile events. In November 2023, she made a statement at the Latin Grammy Awards with four different show-stopping looks, including one ensemble crafted from upcycled theater curtains and deadstock velvet. Additionally, she turned heads at the VMAs in September of the previous year, accepting the video vanguard award in a stunning chainmail dress by Versace.
