Monday marked one of the most important night's for the fashion industry: the 2018 Met Gala. The event, which serves as a fundraising benefit for the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, is a chance for designers to show off their extreme creativity of Hollywood's most beautiful people.
Each year's event has a different theme. This year's theme, "Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination," lent itself to a number of religious-inspired designs. And the pieces of fashionable art were not limited to dresses and suits. This year's Met Gala saw a number of jaw-dropping headpieces, from subtle halos to Pope-inspired hats.
