Hands Take Center Stage at the 2026 Met Gala
The 2026 Met Gala, held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, featured a surprising trend: hands. With the year's theme emphasizing the body, celebrities interpreted this literally and figuratively. Ashley Graham wore silver chrome-tipped fingers to honor sculptors. Jordan Roth carried a sculptural figure by couturier Robert Wun. Tessa Thompson sported blue-dipped nails matching her Valentino gown. Pop star Lisa also wore a hands-forward look by Robert Wun. Other attendees included Nichapat Suphap and Lena Mahfouf. The event was covered by Vogue, with photos by Gilbert Flores, Michael Buckner, Julian Hamilton, Mike Coppola, and Theo Wargo.
