Rapper Cardi B’s dress was so bulky that it required 9 men to carry it around to help her perform at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York on the evening of May 6.
When Cardi B walked the red carpet, everyone had to move aside to make room for her dress, which flared out in all directions and required a team of helpers. The tulle design stretched several meters across the auditorium. Nine men followed the 31-year-old rapper’s every step, holding the dress up and helping to adjust the hem to perfection whenever she stopped to pose for photos.
According to Dailymail , Cardi B waited until the end of the show to perform, allowing her to take advantage of the space without disturbing other artists. Therefore, the WAP singer also took the spotlight of the ceremony.
Her Giambattista Valli dress was said to be inspired by Ursula from The Little Mermaid. People reported that it was the biggest dress at this year’s Met Gala, which was themed “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.”
In addition to the voluminous dress, Cardi B also attracted attention with a towering beehive-shaped headdress and long green nails. She covered herself with diamond and emerald jewelry that stood out against the black outfit.
The female rapper attracted attention in a flowing black dress and gorgeous jewelry.
Cardi B always makes her mark at every Met Gala. Last year, she wore four different outfits throughout the ceremony.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter in March,Cardi B said she always plans her outfit ahead of time and prepares carefully for each Met Gala. “We always think ahead,” the rapper said. “I feel like the Met Gala is almost like the Grammys. It’s very stressful, we act like it’s easy but we’re really nervous. We always try to make sure everything goes smoothly and every image is iconic.”
