The rapper opts for a daring wet dress

Doja Cat was bold as always with her Met Gala appearance, taken in the rain, on Monday night.

The Coachella headliner opted for a drenched look on the steps of New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art for fashion’s biggest night. The Grammy-winning rapper was draped in a wet white crew-neck, floor-length t-shirt dress with wrist-length sleeves, which clung to her skin.

Doja’s bleached hair was in her now-iconic cropped style, which highlighted her ear accessories — a small collection of diamond studs and hoops adorning her earlobe, conch and helix.

The theme of this year’s Met Gala exhibition is “Sleeping Beauties: Awakening Fashion” and the dress code is “The Garden of Time.”

Doja turned the whole day into a fashion show, arriving at the Mark Hotel — where Met Gala attendees traditionally prepare their looks for the event — in a clear plastic bag with nude-colored underwear.

As she headed out of the hotel to the gala, she donned a decoy outfit, which hinted at the wet oversized shirt look she ended up wearing on the red carpet.

She was wrapped in a white towel that had a large label on her torso that read “dress” and appeared to detail care instructions. Her head was wrapped in a matching white towel, and she wore a silver and gold necklace and drop earrings to complete her bath time look.

For those who have forgotten, the rapper looked like purring at last year’s Met Gala, when she dressed as Karl Lagerfeld’s famous Burmese cat, Cat Choupette, in honor of the late designer.

Her look was a sleek, head-to-toe Oscar de la Renta diamond ensemble, with cat ears wrapped around the top of her head. She also wore killer cat-eye makeup, as well as a prosthetic cat nose and long, curved nails that resembled cat claws.

Last month, Doja made headlines (again) for her hair due to social media users’ reactions to promotional art she shared for her song “Masc,” which is from her latest album “Scarlet 2: Claude”.

The image is a high-definition, enlarged photo of the back of the singer’s blonde head. A day later, she took to Instagram Live to respond to some of the comments made under the post.

Based on screen recordings shared by @Popcrave and @theshaderoom, Doja said: “I’m seeing a constant trend in my comments section of people saying is my hair pubic hair? Is it carpet? Or is it sheep’s wool? And these aren’t even questions. Some people say: that’s how it is. »

She added, “People compare my hair to sheep, to pubes, to carpet and popcorn… Like, we need to move forward. Let’s move forward. Let’s grow up. Let’s stop.”

In A recording shared by @Doja HQ, the “Paint the Town Red” singer said on her Instagram Live that she “had a lot of trouble recording this” because “I don’t like making videos of myself” for be serious. She had recorded the same video explaining her thoughts on the issue “over and over again” before finally deciding to start a live stream.
