Zendaya clearly nailed her look for the 2015 Gala, which had the theme of "China: Through the Looking Glass." She looked gorgeous in an interesting and embellished Fausto Puglisi dress, which featured sun designs against the long trailing skirt, along with a simple pair of black stilettos. Quite simple yet elegant.

Her long hair, topped with a matching crown-like headband was the icing on the cake, and of course, her bracelet matched the whole look to perfection. Jessica Alba could take a few notes from Zendaya about how to pick an outfit to walk the stairs at the Metropolitan Museum of Art!

Walking Saucer

When Solange Knowles arrived at the 2015 Met Gala, she stopped many people in their tracks – but many were probably just trying to figure out what exactly it was they were looking at her wearing. The Giles dress has an odd shape that makes her look like some kind of vehicle you’d see on "Star Trek" or "The Orville."

It also seems to be an optical illusion if one has a close look at the print of the dress, so it was a very daring move to wear this outfit. The star clearly likes to be the odd one out as she also donned a strange outfit at the same event in 2017. But hey, if ever there were a time to dress like a flying saucer, it’d be at the Met Gala, right?
