The 2026 Met Gala theme is “Costume Art” and the dress code is “Fashion Is Art,” so yes, the focus is…art! And Alex Consani fully nailed it, walking the red carpet wearing a stunning white gown by Gucci…or, so we thought, until she revealed a gorgeous train of black feathers.

SOOOOOO good.
Alex spoke to Vogue last year about her personal style, saying in part, “I think that what’s so tragic about fashion now is that people feel like everything needs to be connected to another piece of clothing that they’re wearing. The coolest people that I knew growing up were like, I want to wear this shirt. I want to wear these pants. Nothing matched. It all looked fucking ugly. But they felt beautiful.”
She added that she doesn’t typically work with a stylist, saying, “I always thought it was only really famous people that had stylists. But everybody in fashion has stylists. I know girls that get styled before they leave the house,” she said. “That stresses me out. I would rather die than have to wear clothes that are strategized for me to wear every single day.”
