Margot Robbie commanded attention at the Met Gala in a stunning vintage Karl Lagerfeld gown that had been previously worn by a supermodel. The Australian-born Hollywood actress looked captivating in a black Chanel gown with a one-shoulder strap and a slight train, featuring a daring heart-shaped neckline and a see-through PVC corset with gold chains at the waist.
To complete the look, Robbie wore black high heels from Chanel and adorned herself with yellow gold and diamond Impression Florale earrings from the Coromandel collection, along with multiple rings, including her engagement ring. Her makeup was kept simple with neutral eye shadow and nude lipstick, and her hair was styled in classic Hollywood curls.
Despite attending the event without her husband Tom Ackerley, who is an ambassador for the French fashion house, Robbie was thrilled to wear the iconic dress, which was originally designed by Karl Lagerfeld for the Haute Couture Spring-Summer 1993 collection. The dress has since become a part of the Chanel archival collection and is not readily available to the public.
The Met Gala was held in honor of Karl Lagerfeld, who passed away on February 19, 2019, at the age of 85 due to complications from pancreatic cancer. Lagerfeld was a renowned fashion designer who worked with prominent fashion houses such as Chanel, Fendi, and his own label, as well as with Chloe, Patou, and Balmain during his career in the fashion industry. Margot Robbie expressed her respect and admiration for Lagerfeld and was grateful to have had the opportunity to know him. Her appearance in the vintage Karl Lagerfeld Chanel dress at the Met Gala was a standout moment, cementing her status as a fashion icon.
