Met Gala 2023: Trevor Noah, Rihanna, Kim Kardashian shine on the red carpet
Updated | By Tamlyn Canham
The who's who of the entertainment world got dressed up in their best looks for the biggest night on the fashion calendar.
South African comedian Trevor Noah joined A-list stars such as Kim Kardashian and Rihanna at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York for the 2023 Met Gala.
This year's event was in honour of late fashion icon Karl Lagerfeld. The German fashion designer died in 2019 at the age of 85.
The theme, 'Karl Lagerfeld: A line of beauty', inspired some classic looks, with some stars even paying homage to the designer's beloved cat Choupette.

Kim Kardashian earned herself a spot on the best-dressed list with her Schiaparelli look. The 42-year-old was literally dripping in pearls on the red carpet.
