Kylie Jenner, Cardi B, Angel Reese, Emily Ratajkowski, and More Gather for Instagram’s Met Gala 2024 Class Photo
24 red carpet, Instagram brought together its star-studded guests at the Mark Hotel for a unique class photo. The atmosphere was serene, with celebrities and their glam squads preparing for the evening’s festivities. As the elevators shut down for all but those with urgent appointments at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, the hotel room turned into a makeshift photo studio buzzed with anticipation.
Captured by photographer Djeneba Aduayom, each guest posed solo, later digitally assembled into a surreal tableau by her talented team. Among the notable attendees were Instagram executives, including Adam Mosseri, who embraced the night’s theme, “the Garden of Time,” with a custom velvet suit adorned with meaningful brooches representing significant aspects of his life. Monica, Mosseri’s wife, joined him for portraits, exuding elegance in an Oscar de la Renta gown embellished with embroidered florals.
Eva Chen, Instagram’s director of fashion partnerships, made a statement in a Robert Wun gown depicting a winter garden, complemented by frosty white eyeshadow and snowflake accents on her lashes. Actor Colman Domingo stunneԀ in a Willy Chavarria ensemble, featuring a cape and pleated black palazzo pants, while reggaeton star Rauw Alejandro dazzled in a Ludovic de Saint Sernin sequin top and tailored pants with an embedded orchid motif.
Jonathan Bailey opted for a Loewe suit adorned with floral accents, perfectly showcasing his cascade of hair with a subtle nod to the theme by displaying his watch. As the guests posed and preened, excitement filled the air, setting the stage for a night of fashion and celebration at one of the most iconic events in the industry.
