Met Gala 2016: 11 Instagram snaps of celebs in their snazziest dress

The Met Gala is a pretty big event for high fashion, charity, and the stars. It’s one night that celebrities really get to look the part for the sake of looking the part. They don’t exactly walk home with a Grammy or an Oscar, but the night is no less important.

Being a top trend on Twitter worldwide this weekend, image-heavy social portal Instagram also had its fair share of posts shared by celebrities and the general populace alike.

So, if you fancy taking a look at what the stars decided to don, have a look at our selection of Instagram stars navigating the honourary red carpet in their glad rags.
