Supermodel Gigi Hadid’s effortless pin-up girl hair styling was one of our favorites of the night, created by celebrity stylist Dimitris Giannetos.

Something that feels super effortless, like she just got back from a vacation,” he says. “It’s all about enhancing her natural features, keeping the skin radiant and glossy, and adding that soft warmth to bring everything to life. I love when makeup looks like it’s part of you. Fresh, glowy, and confident.”

Smoldering eyeliner, glass skin, and bedazzled brows made a subtle statement in actress Lupita Nyong’o’s Met Gala beauty look, courtesy of Chanel Beauty.
