Met Gala 2022: Sophie Turner dons embellished gown while husband Joe Jonas looks dapper

Sophie Turner displayed full maternity glow as she and husband Joe Jonas arrived at the Met Gala on Monday.

The 26-year-old Game Of Thrones actress, who is expecting the couples’ second child together, stunned in an embellished black gown while her husband, 32, looked dapper in a white and black tuxedo jacket with extra long tails.

The couple were both seen cradling Sophie’s burgeoning baby bump on the red carpet, as they tenderly gazed at each other while posing for photographers. 

This year’s dress code is ‘gilded glamour’ to match the theme of ‘In America: An Anthology of Fashion,’ a continuation of last year’s ‘In America: A Lexicon of Fashion.’ 

The English actress wore her long dark copper-toned tresses styled into tight curls, which cascaded down her shoulders and back.

She matched her makeup to her hair, sporting a reddish hue of eyeshadow on her lids and a bright red lip. Turner further accessorized her look with a black clutch and comfortable black sandals.

Meanwhile the Jonas Brother paired his elegant attire with black pants and dress shoes, and further spruced up the look with a glimmering chain around his neck. 

The couple were last seen at the event together in 2019, when they arrived in matching geometric Louis Vuitton ensembles by Nicolas Ghesquière. 

The Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute Benefit, also known as the Met Gala, is considered by many as the ‘Super Bowl of celebrity red carpets.’

Fashion’s biggest night is traditionally held the first Monday in May to raise money for the Costume Institute in New York City, with last year’s event moved to September due to the pandemic.

Tickets for the glitzy event can reportedly cost up to $35,000 apiece, while prices for a table range from $200,000 to $300,000, with last year’s bash raking in a whopping $16.4 million for the Met’s Costume Institute.   

Regina King, power couple Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, and Lin-Manuel Miranda are hosting this time, taking over from Timothée Chalamet, Billie Eilish, Amanda Gorman and Naomi Osaka.

This will be Miranda’s first time as a Met Gala co-chair (and guest) but he was originally intended to co-host the 2020 edition before the pandemic forced its cancellation. 

Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour is once again supervising the benefit as chairwoman, a position she’s held since 1995. Her fellow honorary co-chairs are designer Tom Ford and Instagram head Adam Mosseri.

As usual, the sartorial theme comes from the exhibit the gala launches: ‘In America: An Anthology of Fashion,’ which is the second of star curator Andrew Bolton’s two-part show exploring the roots of American style.

This exhibit will showcase some lesser-known designers, and also some top film directors, including Sofia Coppola, Martin Scorsese, host King, and last year’s Oscar winner Chloé Zhao.

Bolton said eight directors will create what he called ‘cinematic vignettes’ in the period rooms of the American Wing of the museum.
