Sabrina Carpenter Goes Old Hollywood Glam at the 2026 Met Gala"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Sabrina Carpenter is\u2026Sabrina at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/tag\/event\/met-gala\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"text link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">2026 Met Gala<\/a>. The \u201cManchild\u201d singer stepped out onto the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/slideshow\/met-gala-2026-red-carpet-celebrity-arrivals-live\" class=\"text link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">red carpet<\/a> in a custom Dior slit tulle dress by Jonathan Anderson. The look pays homage to Audrey Hepburn\u2019s 1954 film Sabrina\u2014an homage further accentuated by the full-body wrap of rhinestone film strips. (If you zoom in, maybe you can catch a glimpse of costars Humphrey Bogart and William Holden in the film stills, too.)<\/p>\n<p>This year marks a special occasion for the singer. Not only did she just headline Coachella\u2014just like she said she would way back in 2025\u2014but she also joins this evening\u2019s event as a member of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/beyonce-nicole-kidman-venus-williams-anna-wintour-2026-met-gala\" class=\"text link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">host committee<\/a> alongside other megastars, including Teyana Taylor, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/doja-cat-saint-laurent-met-gala-2026\" class=\"text link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Doja Cat<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/lisa-looks-angelic-in-custom-robert-wun-at-the-2026-met-gala\" class=\"text link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Lisa<\/a>, Misty Copeland, and many more.<\/p>\n<p>Across her now four <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/tag\/event\/met-gala\" class=\"text link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Met Gala<\/a> appearances, Carpenter has yet to carve out a single signature look. Instead, she\u2019s a wild card, leaving her fans guessing what could come next. That is, of course, by design. \u201cMy look for every year has been totally different,\u201d she <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/sabrina-carpenter-met-gala-2025\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"text link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">told Vogue<\/a> ahead of last year\u2019s event. She made her debut in 2022 for \u201cIn America: An Anthology of Fashion,\u201d where she wore a golden two-piece set composed of a glittering bikini top and high-waist skirt by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/fashion-shows\/designer\/paco-rabanne\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"text link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Rabanne<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In 2024, she kept things a little more subdued, opting for a black mermaid gown by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/fashion-shows\/designer\/oscar-de-la-renta\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"text link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Oscar de la Renta<\/a> that cascaded into a cloud of blue. Last year, Carpenter <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/sabrina-carpenter-met-gala-2025\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"text link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">went all in<\/a> on the \u201cTailored for You\u201d dress code, sporting a pinstripe-bodysuit look by Louis Vuitton. The silhouette was also reminiscent of Lisa\u2019s Louis Vuitton blazer and sheer tights. (Perhaps it\u2019s kismet that they are both on this year\u2019s host committee.)<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Image may contain Sabrina Carpenter Performer Person Solo Performance Adult Face Head Baby and Leisure Activities\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"ResponsiveImageContainer-dkeESL cQPiWi responsive-image__image\"   src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/2274585118.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Photo: Kevin Mazur\/MG26\/Getty Images<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sabrina Carpenter is\u2026Sabrina at the 2026 Met Gala.
