It’s a glamorous date night for the parents at the Met. Clad in their Valentino ensembles, both Nick and Priyanka exuded their alluring chemistry as husband and wife.

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban
There’s a sweet sentimentality that comes from a long lasting relationship, and that’s exactly what Nicole and Keith gave off as they ascended the steps of the Met. Always ready to be his wife’s other half, the singer-songwriter guided the actress as she showcased her 2004 Chanel Haute Couture gown for the media. They even shared a quick peck on the lips before heading inside the Met Gala ballroom.
Suki Waterhouse and Robert Pattinson
Almost five years into their relationship, Suki and Robert finally made their Met Gala debut together. The two were all smiles as they walked on the steps, and even seemed to be inseparable. Grinning in every angle of the camera, the couple looked relaxed and content with each other’s company. Unlike others, they donned subtle coordination with Suki’s look from Valentino and Robert’s courtesy of Dior Men.
Olivia Rodrigo and Conan Gray
Who said sweetness is only found in couples? Talented performers and singer-songwriters Olivia Rodrigo and Conan Gray shared a cute moment on the Met steps tonight. The former scooted closer to her best friend for a photo before the main event started. Both wearing black and white ensembles, the two decided to highlight different Lagerfeld codes—Olivia went for the camellia, while Conan served in pearls, tweed, and leather.
Serena Williams and Alexis Ohanian
Whoever said three’s a crowd doesn’t know there’s a bundle of joy on the way! The tennis legend announced her second pregnancy at the Met Gala with her Gucci gown hugging her baby bump beautifully. Her husband, Alexis, made the athlete laugh in their official photo, making Serena grin from ear to ear. Indeed, happy wife, happy life!
Rihanna and A$AP Rocky
Giving justice to the term “fashionably late,” the couple arrived in their individual chic style that met halfway through their common sunnies accessory. Rihanna rocked that modern and edgy Chanel bride persona with her camellia coat and fingerless gloves. Meanwhile, A$AP Rocky took Lagerfeld’s expertise in accessorizing and made it his own with the layering of belts and embroidered denim pants. Tying in their looks together furthermore, the couple stood out by incorporating red on their respective outfits—the rapper with his plaid skirt and the beauty mogul with her bold red lip.
