Doja Cat and Jared Leto have turned heads at the 2023 Met Gala event after showing up dressed as cats.
Their outfits pay homage to iconic late designer Karl Lagerfeld’s beloved white Burmese cat, Choupette. This year’s Met Gala theme is a tribute to Lagerfeld, who died in 2019. Lagerfeld was best known for his work as the creative director of luxury brand Chanel from from 1983 until his death in February 2019.
Doja Cat’s outfit was comprised of a jewelled dress with cat ears, while her face made up to give her a cat’s snout.

In recent Met Gala-related news, it was announced earlier this year that Rihanna’s 2018 Met Gala look is being recreated for Madame Tussauds’ wax museum in New York City. Another Rihanna wax figure is due to be added to Madame Tussauds Orlando at some point later this year. That model will feature the singer’s outfit from the Super Bowl 2023.
