It was all pomp and circumstance at the 2023 Met Gala, which showcased designers, fashion legends and the world’s biggest celebrities who all convened at New York City’s iconic Metropolitan Museum of Art to celebrate the life and legacy of German fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld under the theme: A Line of Beauty.

The editors at Shine My Crown sifted through videos of the hundreds of guests who were attendance and selected the women of color who wore their custom designs best.
