Why Rihanna had a secret 3 am Met Gala fitting

With the Met Gala tonight, all eyes are on the celebrity attendees - and viewers cannot wait to see what extravagant outfits stars show up in this year. The fundraiser’s 2023 theme is “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty”.

Singer and businesswoman Rihanna is known for her elaborate Met Gala looks, from her yellow fur-trimmed Guo Pei gown in 2015 to her iconic papal crystal-encrusted look by John Galliano in 2018.

Many fans and Met Gala enthusiasts are eager to see what she has in store for tonight. According to a source for Page Six, Rihanna will be dripping in jewels tonight, after reportedly having a secret fitting at 3 am this past Saturday for her Met Gala look.

The source said that Rihanna would be wearing roughly $25 million in jewels from Cartier.

Rihanna showed up fashionably late

The ‘Umbrella’ singer loves to make a statement. This Met Gala, she’ll be showing up fashionably late to the red carpet.

Rihanna was spotted arriving at her hotel in New York around the same time that most celebrities would be leaving to arrive at the fundraiser gala. She can be seen in fan videos carrying her son Noah, wearing jeans and a baseball cap.

Rihanna stuns in Karl Lagerfeld-inspired Chanel look

Rihanna is already making waves before even stepping foot on the Met Gala red carpet. This past weekend, the ‘Consideration’ singer posted stunning new photos wearing a black-and-white vintage Chanel look from 1994, a collection designed by Karl Lagerfeld.

“not even Monday,” Rihanna’s caption read.

She wore the outfit to dinner and was spotted in paparazzi photos leaving the restaurant. Rihanna complemented the vintage pieces with a mini dress from Coperni and a custom faux fur hat, all smiles as she showed off her baby bump.
