In 2018, Cardi B showed up to the Met Gala dripping in pearls. (And also, very pregnant.) Her Moschino look set the standard very high. But of course, this is Cardi, and this year’s theme was “camp”—she wasn’t going to disappoint.

Cardi brought the red to the red carpet in an absolutely massive, feathered Thom Browne creation. The high-neck gown encircled the rapper’s head and had sleeves that went all the way to her fingertips. Vogue reports that it comes with some seriously impressive numbers: 30,000 feathers, 2,000 hours, 35 people. And that doesn’t even count the custom bodice, which features 44 carats worth of rubies acting as nipple covers, valued at $250,000—the result of a collaboration with Stefere Jewerly.

According to Vogue, the train extended a full 10 feet and required five people to carry it up the Met steps.

“I designed this dress for Cardi specifically because she has the ultimate beauty in a woman’s body, and that is what the dress is about for me: taking advantage of that beauty,” Browne told Vogue.

While Cardi typically likes to show off a little skin—see last week’s Billboard Music Awards, where she wore a canary Moschino dress that not only had a huge slit at the leg, but also showcased her abs—this Thom Browne ensemble was more covered. But make no mistake: It was one of her biggest fashion statements yet.
