The Striking Met Gala After-Party Outfits That You Haven't Seen Yet

While we were sleeping the biggest celebrities in the world assembled on the steps of the Met Museum in the most extravagant outfits they could find for the 2019 Met Gala. This year’s theme—Camp: Notes on Fashion—really lent itself to fabulousness and fashion powerhouses like Lady Gaga, Lupita Nyong'o, Harry Styles and Kim Kardashian-West won the night with their looks. However, the fashion parade didn't stop after the main red carpet, as many of the guests then got changed for the after parties.
Celebrities changed into some easier-to-wear outfits for the second part of the evening—can you blame them? Kendall Jenner, for instance, ditched her elaborate Versace feathered headpiece and wore a mini blazer dress for the after-party circuit. Hailey Bieber swapped her thong-exposing red carpet dress for a decidedly more low-key look: an oversized white shirt and sparkly shorts. Meanwhile, Kim Kardashian West changed out of her dripping-with-crystals Thierry Mugler dress into a plunging blue latex mini, adding a metallic blue wig for good measure.
