Singer Lana Del Rey made an appearance at the annual Costume Institute Gala, known as the Met Gala, held on May 6 at the Metropolitan Museum in New York City. Vogue magazine shared a video featuring the celebrity on Instagram.

The 38-year-old Lana Del Rey opted for an ensemble by Alexander McQueen for the social event, designed by the brand’s new creative director, Sean McKeever. The pop singer wore a beige maxi dress adorned with tree trunks. The celebrity complemented the look with chunky high-heeled shoes and a net. Makeup artists gave her a makeover with black eyeliner and brown lipstick, while stylists fashioned her with loose curls. Some internet users did not appreciate Lana Del Rey’s outfit.

“To avoid mosquitoes in the forest. That’s how she understood the theme of the gala,” “Did Lana wear mosquito repellent?” “Lana, who dressed you in mosquito netting?” wrote some in the comments.

The theme of the Met Gala Costume Institute was “Sleeping Beauties: Awakening of Fashion.” Among the event’s guests were Irina Shayk, Rita Ora, Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid, Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Lopez, Zendaya, and other stars.

In February, Lana Del Rey alarmed fans with a photo. The singer posed in a white mini dress with a bow, holding a gun in her hand.
