The year's most prestigious fashion event took place at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York last night and our own Ruth Negga slayed on the night.

As always the night, which raises funds for the Museum's Costume Institute, was full of fashion surprises.

This year, the MET celebrated fashion designer Rei Kawakubo and her iconic brand Comme des Garçons and the theme was Rei Kawakubo / Comme des Garcons: Art of the In-Between.

The Gala was chaired by American Vogue Editor Anna Wintour, along with Katy Perry and Pharrell Williams.

Ms Perry was joined by three Kardashian/Jenner sisters, Ruth Negga, Cara Delevingne and Rihanna went all out with their fashion choices - if you can't do it at the Met - you can't do it anywhere!
