Lorde Slays In A Long Navy Gown At The Met Gala

by Jessica Willingham

The unstoppable teen singer and songwriter Lorde is known for her edgy style — rocking wildly natural brunette curls and deep purple lipstick — and, on Monday, things were no different for the "Team" singer. On the red carpet for the 2015 Met Gala, Lorde wore a long, beautifully sparkled navy gown that was completely bold and gorgeous. We are in love, and have been since her hit song “Royals” hit the airwaves. And especially since her killer confidence hit the red carpet.

Classy and daring, it's no surprise that Lorde went for a look that perfectly encompasses her musical taste and moody demeanor. And the color? Literally so perfect. To boot, the back of Lorde's dress was spot-on with a deep plunge fitting of the musician's depth. Lorde, along with designer Francisco Costa, elegantly glided on the red carpet and looked absolutely beautiful.

Besides being eccentric and whimsical with her gown, Lorde was even braver when it came to beauty: On Monday, Lorde rocked a smokey eye, wavy hairstyle, and a neutral lip — one of Lorde's best makeup looks. She always has a way of blending classic teen beauty with rock ‘n’ roll glam for looks that fearlessly break the rules in all the right ways.

One day prior to the Met Ball, Lorde dined with Met Gala co-chair Jennifer Lawrence in a high-collared navy dress and strappy black gladiator sandals. Lorde accessorized her girl's night out outfit with a bright red clutch with a delicate gold chain, mixing up casual and chic pieces for a classically Lorde look.

The two gals became friends last year when Lorde recorded and curated music for the Hunger Games movie Mockingjay, Part 1 soundtrack. According to US Magazine, Lawrence fangirled when she heard Lorde was on set, the two took a selfie together, and they've been buddies since. We wonder if Lorde will pose with her pal. Fingers crossed!
