Well, this is one way to stand out. Hailey Bieber has stunned on the Met Gala’s pink carpet in New York, flashing her crystal-encrusted underwear. Hailey Bieber has turned heads at the Met Gala, wearing a millennial pink dress complete with visible G-string. She flashed her bejewelled underwear in the custom-made Alexander Wang frock on the dusty pink carpet outside the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The newlywed — who attended solo without her husband Justin Bieber — was among the VVVIP guests at the Costume Institute’s “Camp: Notes on Fashion” benefit, with Vogue describing the event as a “feather and flounce-filled fantasia”. Designer Wang dubbed the intentionally-visible sparkly G-string as a “crystal nameplate thong”. BEST AND WORST OUTFITS AT THE MET GALA Showing off! Hailey Bieber is pretty in pink.

The Met Gala, staged by US Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, was co-chaired by Lady Gaga, along with Gucci creative director Alessandro Michele, Harry Styles and Serena Williams, with a theme based on Susan Sontag’s 1964 essay titled “Notes on Camp”. “The essence of Camp is its love of the unnatural: of artifice and exaggeration,” Sontag stated in the published work. Bieber wasn’t the only one to flash her knickers on the pink carpet.Lady Gaga — who co-chaired the annual benefit — stripped down to her bra and knickers in a four-in-one gown by Brandon Maxwell. The backless, sleeved gown resembled fairy floss. Picture: AFP Did Hailey Bieber colour-match her Met Gala dress to Beverly Hills Hotel’s famous pink exterior? Picture: AFP After attending last year’s ball with then-rumoured boyfriend Shawn Mendes, Hailey tied the knot with Justin Bieber in June. “Obviously Hailey and I are friends, and it was just really cool for me to be able to walk with her because she’s a vet and it was my first year, so it kind of took the pressure off a little bit,” Mendes told People at the time. “I was thrilled to be able to go with her.” What a difference a year makes in Hollywood.

The model, 22, attended the 2019 Met Gala on Monday night wearing a pink sequin Alexander Wang gown with a large cut-out back — and a bedazzled thong. The thin pink t-strap was finished with a “Wang” pin right above her butt. While Baldwin’s husband, Justin Bieber, was nowhere in sight, she posed on the pink carpet and finished her look with her blond hair teased up into a high ponytail with a black bow. The semi-scandalous dress showed off Baldwin’s two back tattoos, done by celebrity tattoo artist Jon Boy. She also looked especially tan after coming back from the Bahamas. Last week, Baldwin hit back at trolls who said she had a little too much fun in the sun; “So today the internet is mad at me for getting too tan!!!!! Shoot!!! !” she wrote along with a selfie. “I’ll do my best not to get so much sun next time I’m on vacation!” This marks Baldwin’s fifth consecutive Met appearance. Last year, she attended the “Heavenly Bodies”-themed event with then-boyfriend Shawn Mendes.<doc-sep>
Flying solo! Model Hailey Baldwin stepped out on the pink carpet at the 2019 Met Gala on Monday, May 6 without her husband, Justin Bieber. It seems like the 25-year-old decided to let his 22-year-old wife have the spotlight for the biggest fashion event of the year, opting to stay home with some takeout while she strutted her stuff with the fashion elite. Hailey looked absolutely stunning in a super slim, baby pink custom Alexander Wang floor-length gown featuring a high neck. But the most jaw-dropping detail was that the dress was completely backless, adding a sexy yet sophisticated touch. This isn’t Hailey’s first Met Gala! The model has been a regular for years, starting with her Met Gala debut in 2015, dressing in the “China: Through The Looking Glass” theme. Hailey returned in 2016 for the “Manus x Machina: Fashion In An Age Of Technology” theme, then again in 2017 for the “Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garcons: Art Of The In-Between” theme. Of course, she also attended last year’s “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion & The Catholic Imagination” themed event. As for Justin’s absence, well, it’s not the first time he’s skipped the big fashion night. The first and only time that he made an appearance at the Met Ball was for debut in 2015, which is the same year that his current wife attended the gala for the first time. Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images But Hailey’s Met Gala solo appearance is proof of how much can change in a year. This time last year, Hailey attended the 2018 Met Gala with her then-boyfriend, pop star Shawn Mendes, and now she’s married to the “No Brainer” singer. Shawn and Hailey dated off and on for about a year before going public with their romance at the most prestigious fashion event of the year, only to call it quits just weeks later. In June, just one month after the Met Gala — and shortly after his last and final split from on-again, off-again girlfriend Selena Gomez — Justin and Hailey were spotted out together. The couple was engaged by July and they tied the knot that September and the rest is history. Talk about a whirlwind romance!
