She coupled her stunning attire with matching closed toe pointy heels.

During a pre-ceremony interview with Vogue Magazine, Minaj's designer explained the meticulous process behind the spectacular dress.

"It’s a satin base actually and then it’s been painted at least 10 times," one after another when it dried, Risso explained.

When asked what are you channeling today, the Bang Bang hitmaker replied, "This is giving a bit new persona, mixed with a little bit of Harajuku, it’s doing a little bit of, but not too much of anything."

"I wanted to really feel transformed. something that felt unique," she elaborated.

Minaj's 2024 Met attendance marked her seventh appearance at the annual event held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. She previously made her Met Gala debut in May 2013.
