Ciara’s Russell Wilson-themed dress and other athletes' stunning outfits at the Met Gala
Athletes spared no expense at the Met Gala this year.
The Met Gala is here and you know what that means: It’s fashion time!
Every year, the Met Gala is held as a fundraiser for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute in New York City. Colloquially, however, many of us normal citizens know it as the day super famous people show off their fashion for us to praise and critique.
And it’s not just celebrities at this event either, athletes from all over are invited to the Met Gala to participate and strut their fashion for us all to see. This year’s theme — In America: A Lexicon of Fashion — has inspired a lot of incredible looks from celebrities and athletes alike.
Most notably for sports fans, Ciara wore a football-inspired dress in honor of husband Russell Wilson… with a cute football clutch purse! Here are all the best outfits from athletes at the 2021 Met Gala.
