Colman Domingo

Accordingly EllDomingo, co-chair of the event, wore an individual three-part Valentino-Zoot suit on the red carpet, which he only debut Blue Cape after removing a statement. The element of his appearance that looked at us? The black flower that he wore instead of a traditional boutonnière.

Christian Latchman

Compensation Star Tramell Tillman went the red carpet at his first Met gala in Thom Browne. His look was ended with his own attitude to the oversized boutonnière trend, with black fabric orchids in his left lapel – they are so realistic that our editors were wondering for a moment whether it was real flowers that were sprayed in black and expanded with fabric accents.
