New York, New York – Sabrina Carpenter made one of the most talked-about entrances at the 2026 Met Gala on Monday, arriving in a custom Dior gown that was unlike anything seen before!
Please, please, please – can we talk about this look?
The Grammy winner stepped out in a gown covered in vintage camera film pulled directly from Audrey Hepburn’s 1954 classic Sabrina, featuring stills of the late actor alongside co-stars Humphrey Bogart and William Holden.
She finished the look with Chopard jewelry, per The Hollywood Reporter, leaning fully into the old Hollywood glamour style that Sabrina has made her signature lately.

The dress was a natural extension of her “Sabrinawood” era – the vintage aesthetic she debuted at Coachella – brought to life on fashion’s biggest stage, and cleverly centered around a film that shares her name.
In her red carpet interview with Vogue, the 26-year-old star couldn’t hide her excitement over the gown.
“It’s all made of film, which is my dream,” she said, adding, “Jonathan Anderson, the genius that he is, and Dior, the whole team – I can’t even express my love and gratitude for them.
“We just finished all of my Coachella looks together, and then they hopped right into making this dream dress.”
This year, Sabrina wasn’t just a guest: she also served on the 2026 Met Gala host committee alongside stars like Doja Cat, LISA, Sam Smith, and Teyana Taylor.
She’s working late…. ’cause she’s a singer!
The night inside the Metropolitan Museum of Art belonged to Sabrina just as much as the red carpet did.
She performed some of her biggest hits, including House Tour from her Man’s Best Friend album, as well as Espresso and Please Please Please from her Short n’ Sweet album – all in between outfit changes.

The highlight of the evening came when rock legend Stevie Nicks joined her on stage in the Temple of Dendur, per Vogue.
Nicks performed Gypsy and Edge of Seventeen, and the two joined together for a duet of Landslide and Don’t Stop Thinking About Tomorrow.
It was the second major musical collaboration of Sabrina’s year, following her Coachella duet with Madonna.
