Alexa Chung Wears Dior at Met Gala 2026 with Jonathan Anderson Design
Alexa Chung wore a custom Dior gown by Jonathan Anderson to the 2026 Met Gala, adhering to the 'Fashion Is Art' dress code. The fluid chartreuse dress featured a single lily, referencing Monet and Anderson's Dior fall 2026 show in the Tuileries Garden. Chung enlisted stylist Danielle Goldberg and personal trainer Matt Bevan for preparation, a departure from her usual solo approach. She also wore a couture headpiece inspired by cyclamen gifted to Anderson by John Galliano. The event marked Chung's sixteenth Met Gala; her first was in 2010 for the 'American Woman' theme, wearing Philip Lim trousers. Chung described the gala as 'like watching TikTok come alive' and emphasized feeling beautiful over making a statement.
