The annual Met Gala is always a place where people can experiment with fashion.

The peculiar aspect consisted of a voluminous layer that put on a body and that was combined with transparent stockings and heels.
Maisie also used a headdress to make a statement, making horns with material that blended perfectly with her hair.
Talking to E! News on the red carpet, Maisie said of her appearance: “It was designed by Reuben Selby, who is my boyfriend, and is inspired by The Matrix.
I have my Matrix coat and nails. I grew up with these American icons: the women of cinema, these heroines. It shaped the woman I became and therefore made sense to honor these people tonight.
