The 2026 Met Gala red carpet is already pure chaos (positive), with celebrities interpreting the “Costume Art” theme and “Fashion Is Art” dress code in wildly different ways. But one through-line? Naked dresses! Celebs cannot get enough of them, and the 2026 Met Gala red carpet is no exception, with everyone from Cara Delevingne to Lena Mahfouf showing up wearing next to nothing and looking amazing in the process.

Quick reminder that the dress code, “Fashion Is Art,” reflects “the ethos of ‘Costume Art,’ which explores the ‘centrality of the dressed body’ through depictions and interpretations of the human form in the Met’s extensive collection.”

So yes, there was definitely an emphasis on the human form—hence all the naked looks.
