Keke Palmer arrived on the red carpet of the 2024 Met Gala on Monday in New York, celebrating the theme “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion” at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. The actress selected a form-fitting gown designed by Marc Jacobs.

The gown was embellished with glimmering antique beaded embroidery sequins throughout, was fashioned to create the illusion of fabric delicately embracing her silhouette with frayed sheer silk tulle. From the neckline to the sleeves, it echoed the aesthetic of loosely draped fabric, ascending to Palmer’s neck while unveiling a plunging V-neckline.
