While several power couples swooned fans with their impeccable chemistry and stunning outfits at Met Gala 2022,  Austin Butler and Kaia Gerber stole the show with their official red carpet debut as a couple. This year's fashion soiree, which followed the 'gilded glamour' dress code, saw the 20-year-old model raise the glam quotient in a lacy metallic gown by Alexander McQueen, with intricate jewellery by Kwiat, according to Page Six

On the other hand, Butler looked dapper in an all-black look, with an untied black tie worn over his shoulders. While the duo opted to walk the red carpet separately, they eventually got together and shared a kiss on the red carpet.
