Kidman wore a striking red sequined gown by Chanel, adorned with feathers. She expressed that red symbolizes love, vitality, and motherhood. “For me, fashion is art,” she stated. “I wanted something red because I wanted to embrace the way in which red has been used in art through the years.”
Sunday Rose, aged 17, opted for a pink Christian Dior Haute Couture gown featuring floral appliques. She shared her excitement about the occasion, saying, “I wanted to symbolize something blooming. It’s my first Met.”
Kidman served as a co-chair for the gala, which had the theme “Fashion In Art.” The annual fundraiser benefits the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute.
