Cardi B is always a sight at the Met Gala. Her dedication to showing up on theme to the event is definitely palpable, and this year was no exception. The singer showed up in 80’s fashion wearing a green velvet Burberry suit designed by Daniel Lee, who said the inspiration was a feminine dandy. As for her hair, she rocked an angular structural afro created by celebrity hairstylist, Tokyo Stylez.
Speaking on the inspiration for Cardi B’s hairstyle, Stylez said “the hairstyle celebrated natural texture while adding a contemporary twist to classic dandyism, aligning seamlessly with the gala’s focus on Black tailoring and cultural expression.”
