It’s not a party until Rihanna walks into a room. The ‘Umbrella’ and ‘What’s My Name’ hitmaker and A$AP Rocky arrived spectacularly late to the Met Gala 2023. But when they arrived, it was all people could talk about. Both wore outfits inspired by the work of the late Karl Lagerfeld.

Rihanna, who announced her second pregnancy during the Super Bowl halftime show, looked ravishing. Twitter was full of love and respect for the iconic pop star, who looked stunning in a white gown. But the internet seemed to be upset with A$AP Rocky.

Rihanna started the day with a gorgeous fut coat from Fendi‘s 1997 fall collection. Personally designed by Karl Lagerfeld, she accompanied it with diamond necklaces and a pair of camellia earrings. She then arrived at the festivities wearing a white Valentino bridal. It was comprised of carefully sculpted flowers from head to toe. 

A$AP Rocky channeled the late designer’s vibe as he sported a fancy black coat with a kilt. Lagerfeld was known for incorporating his love of Scotland into his work. The rapper made changes to the ensemble by adding Gucci belts and diamond-studded jeans. Unlike Rihanna, he had a single look for the event.

While the beautiful couple became the center of attention, few were happy with Rocky’s presence. Twitter called him out for taking too much space, not allowing the pop star any breathing room. It’s hard to say if their opinions are valid or are born out of jealousy. Regardless, it was fun to see how people responded.

A Twitter user by the username never wrong evoked the upcoming Barbie film’s tagline, jokingly saying, “She’s everything. He’s Ken.”
