On May 6, the 2024 MET Gala took place, celebrating the Metropolitan Museum Of Art‘s latest exhibit.
The event gathers dozens of celebrities and designers, who all dress to match the event’s theme, which is tied to the exhibit. Over the years, many Korean celebrities and K-Pop idols have walked the red carpet, including, most recently, Stray Kids and BLACKPINK‘s Jennie.
As it is a fashion event, netizens worldwide tune in to see the stars’ looks. These reactions range from awe over creative and on-theme looks to disappointment in plain or unattractive looks.
Actress Zendaya has often been praised for her outfits, while singer Troye Sivan‘s 2024 look landed him on “Worst Dressed” lists.
Netizens were also left less than impressed by legendary actress Michelle Yeoh‘s MET Gala look.
Michelle Yeoh is an actress whose decades of activities in the industry have left a major impact worldwide. Recently, her role in Everything, Everywhere, All At Once earned her numerous accolades including being the first Asian woman to ever win the Oscar for “Best Actress.”
While attending the 2024 MET Gala, Yeoh wore a silver dress by Balenciaga, sporting a short black hair cut.
Netizens praised Yeoh’s haircut and visuals, but a majority were not in love with her dress. Many felt that it looked like aluminum foil, especially under the bright lights at the event.

Others felt that the outfit was only made wearable by Yeoh, and on its own or on someone else would not have worked at all.
