The 26 best Met Gala hair looks of all time

If there’s one red carpet event we look forward to the most each year, it's the Met Gala.

Hosted annually to raise money for The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute, it’s a chance for the A-list to push the boundaries with their looks.

As for the hair looks at the Met Gala, celebs tend to go one of two ways. Either they keep their hair very simple to let their outfit take centre stage, or they go all out with intricate up-dos and accessories, transforming their strands into a piece of art in themselves. They’re probably not the kind of hairstyles you’re going to be replicating at home with your hairdryer and curling iron, but they’re nice for a bit of escapism and inspiration.
