Paris Hiltonwas “sliving” at her firstMet Gala.
The reality television star, 42, made her debut at fashion’s biggest night on Monday — and she stepped out of her comfort zone for the occasion.
Hilton and Marc Jacobs collaborated on a leather mermaid gown crafted with a rhinestone bustier and gloved sleeves.
The glitter didn’t stop at the dress, though. A rosette choker necklace and sparkly platform heels also brought extra shine to an otherwise dark look.
“I thought, maybe it would be interest and exciting to see her in a black gown ‘cause it’s not typical for Paris,” Jacobs toldVogueon the carpet. He also added that she was “all game” for the outfit, despite it wavering from her usually colorful wardrobe.
Hilton completed the look with smokey eye makeup and nude lipstick, plus a long ponytail.
The morning of, the memoir author and new mom shared with fans how she prepped for her big red-carpet reveal. Her first stop of the day appeared to be a trip to Flávia Lanini, who helped her get “snatched for the Met” with a lymphatic massage.
