Rihanna appeared with ASAP Rocky in a striking white bridal outfit at the 2023 Met Gala, although arriving two hours late still took the spotlight

According to Life & Style Magazine, Rihanna and her beau A$AP Rocky were the last to grace the Met Gala red carpet, arriving approximately two and a half hours later than their peers, and nearly four hours after the red carpet commenced. Nevertheless, they stole the spotlight as the “latecomer bosses” of the fashion soiree, donning daring ensembles that captivated every eye.

The expectant mother Rihanna stunneԀ in a remarkable white gown from Valentino, adorned with oversized floral patterns. The Diamonds singer accessorized with fingerless gloves, a beloved accessory of designer Karl Lagerfeld, perfectly in tune with the theme of this year’s Met Gala. Later, the songstress boldly shed her cloak, revealing her burgeoning baby bump.

As for A$AP Rocky, the male rapper exuded sophistication in a classic ensemble, sporting a tuxedo jacket inspired by Lagerfeld. The couple held hands steadfastly as they stepped onto the red carpet, causing paparazzi and fans alike to erupt in excitement.

Rihanna has always held a special place in the heart of Anna Wintour, the editor-in-chief of Vogue and co-chair of the Met Gala. In 2022, when Rihanna was unable to attend the Met Gala due to her pregnancy, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City and Vogue collaborated to create a statue honoring the singer. The statue was sculpted in her likeness from the Vogue magazine cover where she proudly showcased her baby bump.
