Despite being one of America’s most enduring and prominent cultural figures, Paris Hilton’s appearance at the 2023 Met Gala is her first.
Her bestie Kim Kardashian is a regular attendee at the event, but Hilton herself has never been.
Even her sister, Nicky Hilton, beat her to the honour, appearing on the red carpet in 2001.
Regardless, she seemed more than prepared to make her debut memorable.
The actress and singer is wearing a black Marc Jacobs gown with a glittering sequined bust and a long leather skirt and train.
Making her debut alongside the designer himself, Hilton’s off-the-shoulder gown with leather detailing for extra edge caught attention immediately.
Key elements that completed the look included a matching sequined rosette choker and sky-high sequined platform pumps.\
Speaking to Vogue correspondent LaLa Anthony, Jacobs explained he took a unique approach to styling the star, saying he felt that a black ensemble would be a surprising deviation for Hilton.
It’s not the only fashionable appearance the Hilton hotel heiress has made recently.
Last week, she shared snaps of the stunning icy blue sequined dress she wore at Sofia Richie and Elliot Grainge’s lavish French Riviera wedding.
