Would it even be the 2026 Met Gala<\/a> without an iconic diva sighting? Tonight, legendary singer Cher arrived at the event in grand style<\/a>, marking her first time attending the Met in over a decade.<\/p>\n

Her bold look was well worth the wait: Cher returned to the Met steps<\/a> wearing a custom look by Burberry\u2019s Daniel Lee. Created in close collaboration with her (also legendary) stylist Patti Wilson, they created a black silk-tulle twisted dress, complete with a leather corset and a cropped leather jacket with crystal embellishments. (It is Cher, after all.)<\/p>\n

Does the design look a little familiar? That\u2019s because Cher referenced herself. Her Burberry design nodded to an iconic Met dress that she wore back in 1974, designed by her close friend and frequent collaborator Bob Mackie.<\/p>\n

A longtime champion of the naked dress, it only made sense that Cher would own the look tonight\u2014particularly given that the new spring exhibition from the Met, \u201cCostume Art<\/a>,\u201d explores the intersection of fashion and the human body.<\/p>\n

Cher, of course, has a long history of delivering memorable (and totally glamorous) red carpet looks at the annual event. The iconic diva first attended the Met back in 1986 with Mackie, while in 2015, she attended \u201cChina: Through the Looking Glass\u201d with Marc Jacobs as her date.<\/p>\n
