Venus Williams and Prabal Gurung brought cinematic glamour to the 2021 MetGala

exhibition, teamed up with Williams to create an exquisite crimson silk faille and duchesse satin gown with a flowing train. The piece would stand out at any event, but Williams felt it was ideal for the Met. “As a designer myself, working with a visionary like Prabal was an incredible experience, and I couldn’t be happier with how the dress turned out,” she shared post-event.

In keeping with the “In America” theme, Williams and Gurung drew inspiration from one of the nation’s chief exports: cinema. Namely, the era from the 1930s to 1960s when costume designers like Edith Head and Adrian dressed actresses in arresting custom looks both on- and off-screen. “Prabal and I were inspired by regal Hollywood glamour,” says Williams, who was especially fond of the gown’s rich red hue and ruffles.

Swarovski’s bright green chandelier earrings, an elegant tiered hairstyle by Nikki Nelms, and a smokey eye by makeup artist Emily Amick added to that decadent, Old Hollywood feel. Of course, Williams’s approach was just one of the many ways attendees tackled the night’s theme. Once she made her way to the Met’s steps, Williams was impressed by how the red carpet reflected American individualism.
