Sam Smith arriving at the Met Gala on Monday evening Shall we just take a moment to appreciate Sam Smith ’s Met Gala red carpet look. On Monday night, Sam was among the A-list guests at the annual fundraiser in New York, in aid of the Metropolitan Museum Of Art’s Costume Institute. This time around, the theme of the evening was “Fashion Is Art”, with the British star channelling some old school Hollywood glamour as they walked the red carpet. Sam was pictured making their way into the star-studded in a floor-length, black velvet gown, complete with intricate beading, fur trim and a feather headpiece. Looking like Norma Desmond herself, they were clearly enjoying playing up to the persona presented by the outfit, striking some fabulous poses for the photographers outside the Met Ball early on in the evening. The Unholy singer’s look was created by their partner, fashion designer Christian Cowan. Sam and Christian have been together for around two years, previously hard-launching their relationship on the Met Gala red carpet back in 2024 .
