This dress is crafted to make me look like a living gold statue,\u201d McRae says. \u201cThe corset is so structured and powerful, then you have these soft feathers and the most delicate French gold lace layered in\u2026.It\u2019s dramatic, it\u2019s glowing, it\u2019s literally everything I could\u2019ve dreamed of and more. I\u2019ve never worn anything that feels this special, it is like a piece of history that\u2019s been brought into 2026. I\u2019m so beyond grateful to be here, wearing a piece of art like this for my very first Met.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"c-lazy-image__img lrv-u-background-color-grey-lightest lrv-u-width-100p lrv-u-display-block lrv-u-height-auto\" src=\"https:\/\/wwd.com\/wp-content\/themes\/vip\/pmc-wwd-2021\/assets\/public\/lazyload-fallback.gif\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/8ef3e96f-a509-4e82-91e0-af69700f4efb.jpg\" alt=\"A look at Tate McRae getting ready for Met Gala 2026\" data-lazy- data-lazy- height=\"1024\" width=\"682\" decoding=\"async\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\tA look at Tate McRae getting ready for the 2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/wwd.com\/tag\/met-gala\/\" id=\"auto-tag_met-gala\" data-tag=\"met-gala\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Met Gala<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tKat Irlin\/Courtesy Photo<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThe gown is constructed around a maille bloqu\u00e9e corset with boning, and overlaid in delicate French gold lace, woven on traditional Leavers looms in Calais-Caudry.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThe \u201chand-applied gold feathers on the bra\u201d are McRae\u2019s favorite detail of the piece. \u201cThey\u2019re so intricate.
