The Met Gala steps have always been euphoric.
After all, with stars making their way to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City for the biggest night in fashion—with the stars honoring the “Costume Art” theme at the May 4 event— it’s the perfect backdrop to show out in the best looks.
Take, for instance, Zendaya‘s Joan of Arc-inspired outfit for the 2018 Met Gala. Donning a silver ensemble featuring a knight-like neck plate and shoulder guards and a chainmail skirt. She completed her interpretation of the “Sunday Best” dress code with silver platform heels and Joan’s micro bob with bangs.
Although the Euphoria star slayed the “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination” theme, it wasn’t an easy task making it up those steps.
“Typically, I can handle a night out, with my heels and everything,” she told Vogue in 2024. “I’ve worn heels for a long time. But I don’t know, something about a mixture of wearing these platforms and the heaviness of my dress, I was struggling.”
