Hadid’s outfit was focused on a boned corset bustier worn over a skintight latex jumpsuit. The suspected antisemite coordinated with tall red boots for a seamless look.

Versace explained the inspiration behind Gigi’s look on their official Instagram, saying it’s a “modern interpretation of coats from the late 1800s and a refresh of the Dolman silhouette for a new age of glamour.”
“The corset and the overexaggerate volume of the jacket confront each other in a decadent display of contrast inspired by the volume and dramatic change in womenswear silhouettes of late 1800s.”

Speaking to Emma Chamberlain on the red carpet, Gigi admitted that her massive coat is “the heaviest thing” she’s worn to the Met Ball.
“For this, we wanted to incorporate how in the 1800s those shapes for womenswear became a lot more exaggerated and started to push boundaries. And of course, Versace is always celebrating that. So, that’s what we went for tonight.”
“It’s very heavy, I will not be eating dinner in it,” she added.

Her Chopard necklace incorporated red undertones to match her monochromatic look.
Zayn Malik’s ex finished off her vampy look with a spiky updo done by Esther Langham, a swipe of bold red Maybelline lipstick by Erin Parsons, and red nails by Japanese nail artist Mei.
While the outfit wasn’t ‘gilded glamour,’ it may have landed Hadid a call for the next Marvel movie.
