The 2023 Met Gala has come and gone, and successfully stunned audiences once again with A-list celebrity appearances, showstopping glamor, and over-the-top red carpet fashion. But don’t let the fun stop there! Here’s how you can recreate the looks from fashion’s biggest night using Zelouf Fabrics.

This year’s theme, “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line Of Beauty,” called for a mix of drama, sensuality, and sophistication. The actor served all that and more in a glossy red corset and flowing, tiered tulle skirt. To recreate this voluminous crimson gown at home, try layering Zelouf Sheer Tulle in Breezy Cerise. And remember: more is more.
