Beyoncé had second Met Gala look

Beyoncé’s May 4 return to the Met Gala included more than the crystal skeletal Olivier Rousteing look that dominated red-carpet coverage. Post-event reports and image galleries show she changed inside the Metropolitan Museum of Art into a second gown by Robert Wun, a detail that drew fresh attention in follow-up fashion coverage published on June 1. Glam was among the outlets to revisit the outfit change this week, describing the second look as a continuation of the main appearance rather than a separate afterthought. E! News and Yahoo also reported the inside change earlier in May. ### What was the first look people saw on the Met steps? May 4 coverage from The Hollywood Reporter, USA Today, ABC News and WWD described Beyoncé’s main arrival look as a custom Olivier Rousteing design worn on the Met Gala red carpet in New York. Those reports said the gown used a jeweled skeletal motif, and ABC News reported that Beyoncé attended with Jay-Z and Blue Ivy Carter. ABC News said Beyoncé told Vogue on the carpet that being back at the gala was “surreal” because Blue Ivy was with her. The appearance marked her first Met Gala attendance since 2016, according to multiple reports published the night of the event. ### What changed once she was inside the event? E! News reported in May that Beyoncé, one of the event’s co-chairs, changed after the carpet into a second look inside the gala. (hollywoodreporter.com) Yahoo’s account identified that second outfit as a custom Robert Wun gown inspired by the designer’s spring/summer 2026 collection. (abcnews.com) AOL’s repost of gallery coverage described the second outfit as crystal-covered and paired with a sheer black veil. Bossip also reported that the change was into a Robert Wun Couture dress from the spring/summer ’26 collection. ### Why did some viewers miss the second outfit? The second look appeared in images from inside the gala rather than in the main red-carpet broadcast, which centered on Beyoncé’s Rousteing entrance. (eonline.com) Glam’s June 1 article framed the outfit as a “second” look that many people may have missed, and that matches how later coverage surfaced it through post-event photos and fashion recaps instead of the initial live arrival cycle. (aol.com) MSN’s pickup of Glam’s piece and other follow-up items published weeks after the gala also suggest the renewed attention came from readers revisiting Met Gala images after May 4, not from a new appearance by Beyoncé. ### Who designed the second outfit? Robert Wun was named as the designer of the second look by Yahoo, AOL and Bossip. (glam.com) Those reports linked the outfit to Wun’s spring/summer 2026 work and described it as a formal inside-the-gala change rather than a separate public appearance later in the night. Olivier Rousteing, by contrast, was consistently identified across red-carpet coverage as the designer of Beyoncé’s first gown. (msn.com) That split between Rousteing for the entrance and Wun for the inside look is the central fact behind the renewed June 1 coverage. ### Where can readers verify the outfit change? (yahoo.com) Glam’s June 1 story, E! News’ Met Gala outfit-change report and Yahoo’s post-event fashion item all point to the same sequence: Beyoncé arrived in Rousteing and later changed into Robert Wun. Photo coverage from May 4 remains the clearest record because the second look circulated primarily through galleries and recap stories published after the event. (hollywoodreporter.com) May 4 remains the key date in the timeline: that was the Met Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the later June 1 stories were follow-up coverage built from images and reporting from that night.
