For the 2026 Met Gala, Tate McRae stepped out in a custom Ludovic de Saint Sernin creation, leaving all her fans and followers speechless. This exquisite gold-hued ensemble leaned hard into that “modern goddess” lane the night undoubtedly seemed to be obsessed with, and honestly, it really worked wonders.
There was something very calculated about this metallic and feathery look. After all, it wasn’t just pretty; it was engineered to feel almost mythological. The sparkly hue also looked amazing against McRae’s flawless complexion.
Tate McRae opts for lacy Ludovic de Saint Sernin sheer illusion gown with gold feather bra for Met Gala
For the Met Gala 2026, Tate McRae went with a rather lacy Ludovic de Saint Sernin sheer illusion gown, which was just simply beautiful. This gown in itself was a masterclass in illusion dressing. Crafted from delicate, body-hugging lace, the silhouette clung to her toned frame like a second skin, creating a barely-there effect while still maintaining a touch of structure. The intricate patterning and unique details also added depth and dimension, ensuring the look never felt flat despite its pretty, monochromatic palette.
However, the undeniable focal point of the ensemble was the sculptural gold feather bra. Designed to resemble soft, gilded wings, the textured detailing visibly introduced a striking contrast to the sheer lace base. It also broke up the visual uniformity of the dress. Plus, it added an almost armor-like edge to the otherwise ethereal aesthetic. Its fitted silhouette clearly worked wonders for her toned frame.
Furthermore, the gown followed a classic mermaid silhouette. It flared out dramatically at the hem, into layered lace ruffles that brought movement and fluidity to the look. The cascading train, adorned with feather-like appliqués, gracefully trailed behind her. Her soft glam makeup, paired with loose, flowing hair and minimalistic accessories, complemented the goddess-like aura without overwhelming it.
