Read our privacy policy Cat-themed outfits featured heavily at this year’s Met Gala, in apparent nods to late fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld’s beloved pet, Choupette. Famous faces including Doja Cat, Lil Nas X and Jared Leto arrived for the high-profile fashion event in New York, wearing feline-inspired garments – some more extreme than others. Slightly less subtle was the outfit donned by Oscar-winning actor Jared Leto, who arrived at the Met Gala in a giant white fluffy cat costume. Choupette also appeared to get a nod from Vogue editor-in-chief and Met Gala organiser, Dame Anna Wintour, who wore a coat that seemed to have small cat motifs embroidered on it.
