The Met Gala is about taking a unique approach to fashion and bringing it to life through your clothes. Although the night calls for embracing differences, there have been celebrities who end up twinning on the carpeted steps, while their outfits remain a secret until the very end. That’s what happened to stars Lena Dunham and Nicole Kidman, who walked the white carpet last night in similar sequins and red feathers, bringing their best fashion forward.

Kidman, who recently split from her 19-year marriage to Keith Urban, walked the red carpet as one of the night’s guests, along with daughter Sunday Rose. She had long hair and wore a floor-length dress covered in red sequins, with red feathers accenting the edges of her waist and wrists. To complete the fit, she paired it with an archival and timeless piece of jewelry, with a total of 224 diamonds, according to InStyle.Speaking to Vogue about the outfit’s inspiration, the actress revealed that “I wanted something red because I wanted to embrace the way red has been used in art over the years. And I feel like it’s a strong symbol of love. For passionate love, vitality, power and motherhood.”
Lena Dunham has a daring fit with slits and feathers
Lena Dunham wore a similar red sequin dress for the night with a floor-length split. Her return to the Met Gala since her last appearance in 2019 was nothing short of a boom. Inspired by the early 2010s, Dunham, author of her new memoir ‘Famesick’, donned a gorgeous red dress. The thigh-high split added more drama to the already chunky fit, which was also paired with red feather accents throughout the bodice and skirt.
