The first Monday in May beckoned fashion's biggest night in New York City. The Metropolitan Museum of Art rolled out its red carpet for the annual charity gala. The theme of the museum exhibit this year is ‘Superfine: Tailoring Black Style’, and the dress code for the event was ‘Tailored for You’. Most guests at the fall this year abided by the theme and made a stunning appearance on the red carpet.

The gown also had a cape with a train inspired by the legendary Black designer André Leon Talley.

As per Vogue, her outfit took over 20,000 hours to make. The designer told the publication, “We used a little bit of semi-precious stones, some traditional pearl work, and drew inspiration from Black dandy style—the small elements they incorporated, the reasons behind their choices." It was Isha's layered diamond necklace that caught the attention of social media users. The neckpiece originally belonged to the Maharaja of Nawanagar and is now owned by Cartier. It also featured in the heist movie Ocean's 8.
