We Need to Talk About These Over-the-Top Beauty Looks at the Met Gala

With the Met Gala — aka the first Monday in May — just a few days away, we're looking back at the most daring hair and makeup looks that hit the red carpet in past years. There have been multi-tier up-dos adorned with precious jewels, dramatic tributes to the beauty trends of iconic musical eras (like punk-rock), and even a makeup look inspired by the dark arts. With its fashion-centric overarching theme, this event produces some of the most out-of-the-box beauty looks in history.

With this year's theme being "Camp: Notes on Fashion," we can expect more wild looks on our favorite celebrities. See our favorites, ahead.
