Madonna at the 2026 Met Gala In a year when disappointingly few Met Gala guests stuck to the event’s themed dress code, we’re pleased to see that Madonna definitely got the “Fashion Is Art” memo. On Monday night, the Queen of Pop singer served up one of the night’s most elaborate and dramatic looks, transforming herself with an ensemble inspired by the Leonora Carrington painting The Temptation Of Saint Anthony (you just knew there’d be a religious connection somewhere with Madonna, didn’t you?). The Like A Prayer singer’s mysterious and gothic look consisted of a dark brown wig, long gloves, a show-stopping hat (topped with a towering, boat-inspired headpiece) and yards of grey tulle, which looked even more impressive in motion. Madonna wore a custom Saint Laurent look inspired by Leonora Carrington’s painting The Temptation of St. Anthony, Fragment II.m designed by Anthony Vaccarello, featured a pirate-ship hat and brass accessories, aligning with the "Costume Art" theme. pic.twitter.com/DhkTaz3ZjX — Madonna Scrapbook (@m_scrapbook) May 5, 2026 As in the original Carrington painting, Madonna’s outfit was supported by an entourage of women in more colourful, eye-catching attire.

We aren’t the only ones who’ve been enamoured with Madonna at the Met Ball, either. Indeed, who could forget in 2017, when Sarah Paulson was visibly gagged at clocking the music icon across the red carpet from her…? Sarah Paulson got a shock at the 2017 Met Gala when she spotted Madonna on the red carpet Madonna is currently gearing up for the release of Confessions II , which will be her first studio album in seven years. Serving as a follow-up to her much-loved album Confessions On A Dance Floor , last week, she unveiled the release’s lead single Bring Your Love , featuring fellow chart-topper Sabrina Carpenter .
