“No Modesty Anymore”: 17 Sheer Met Gala Looks That Broke The Internet For All The Wrong Reasons
11. Kendall Jenner In 2017

For the 2017 event, themed “Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons: Art of the In-Between,” Kendall Jenner leaned fully into the night’s avant-garde spirit with a custom La Perla Haute Couture gown designed by then-creative director Julia Haart. The dress featured a completely fabric-less silhouette, constructed from 85,000 hand-painted crystals strung together on a single piece of strong, thin nylon thread. The intricate piece took over 160 hours to design and required the work of 60 people across five different cities, making it as much a technical feat as a fashion statement. The sheer mesh design also featured a dramatic front cut-out across the torso, a thigh-high slit, and a backless finish that revealed matching black underwear. The supermodel paired the look with matching black mesh pumps by Christian Louboutin. Keeping her makeup simple, Jenner opted for a striking red lip, alongside a messy, tousled wet-look bob that added to the edgy aesthetic. She was also seen spending time with A$AP Rocky throughout the evening, with many outlets dubbing him her unofficial date for the night.
