The Met Gala Red Carpet Was Filled With Zany Accessories, but These Were the Absolute Best

Wearing Linda Farrow sunglasses and holding an old-school cell phone, Lady Gaga struck a pose in her third outfit change on the Met Gala red carpet.

And the award for creepiest accessory goes to . . . Jared Leto, dressed in Gucci, holding a replica of his head at the 2019 Met Gala.

When we weren't staring at the winking motorized eye on Janelle Monáe's custom Christian Siriano look, we were in awe of her stack of signature wide-brimmed hats — all courtesy of Sarah Sokol Millinery.

black-ish star, Tracee Ellis Ross, used a gilded picture frame as her main accessory and prop on the Met Gala red carpet.

While Priyanka Chopra's Dior Haute Couture gown and Chopard jewels evoked an Alice in Wonderland vibe, it was her tall silver crown that lent a regal air.

Ezra Miller's blank face mask served as striking accessory to his pinstriped Burberry ensemble and multiple eyes painted on his face.

While Zoe Saldana's sparkly orange Michael Kors gown may be the main attraction, the oversize, equally-as-sparkly purple flowers in her hair were the perfect color contrast.

Cara Delevingne donned a rainbow-striped Dior Haute Couture ensemble on the red carpet, and while it was admittedly eye-catching, it wasn't the bright colors of the outfit that caught our eye. Her Machine Dazzle headpiece, which featured a flurry of eyeballs, bananas, dentures, and fried egg, stole the show.

Kacey Musgraves was giving us major Barbie vibes, thanks to an all-pink Moschino look, complete with a matching feather boa, sunglasses, and blow-dryer handbag.

We can always count on Lupita Nyong'o for a striking red-carpet look. Her Met Gala look — a pink-and-gold Versace gown with rainbow shoulder ruffles — was further accentuated by a matching rainbow fan and gilded Afro picks in her hair.

Billy Porter just gave us our new must-have accessory: a litter. The Pose star was carried into the Met Gala on a litter by six shirtless men. Is there any other way to enter a room now?

Harry Styles, in all-black Gucci, reminded us that life really can imitate art. In this case, the singer and Met Gala cohost gave us Girl with a Pearl Earring vibes with his single pearl earring.

Kerry Washington wore a Tory Burch gown with the words "Negativity is Noise" written all over the skirt and rings to match.

Celine Dion was a vision in a gold Oscar de la Renta gown and larger-than-life headpiece.

Yes, Mindy Kaling is rocking that long rose-gold hair and gold Moschino gown, but can we talk about those jaw-dropping David Webb earrings? Wow.

Black Panther actress Danai Gurira amped up her Gabriela Hearst jumpsuit with a slick top hat and cane.

Emily Blunt topped off her custom Michael Kors Collection gown with an equally gilded headpiece by Stephen Jones.

Alexa Chung's matching beret and micro bag helped to keep her French-meets-disco look in tact.

While a manicure doesn't usually count as an accessory, Elle Fanning's Met Gala manicure does. Celebrity manicurist Mar Y Sol created the nail look, which featured a retro turquoise phone, Bubble Yum package, yellow Coors can, French fries, and a tube of Colgate toothpaste.

Halsey evoked a superhero vibe in a red Prabal Gurung dress and bold gold jewelry by Jennifer Fisher.

Gemma Chan's metallic Tom Ford ensemble was enhanced tenfold by the Elizabeth Taylor-inspired headpiece she wore.

Zendaya, wearing Tommy Hilfiger, took her Cinderella moment to the next level with the crystal-encrusted carriage-turned-pumpkin clutch she carried.

Emily Ratajkowski's barely-there look was not the only head-turning thing about her outfit. We'd argue that the wings framing her face also made people stop and stare, too.

Adwoa Aboah's delicate gold headpiece is the perfect complement to her animal-print gown.

It's all about the accessories for Winnie Harlow's look — a luxe feather boa, striking headpiece, and a delicate bag.

While Tessa Thompson's dress struck a modest Victorian note, the actress utilized her hair as a whip and toted a leather riding crop as well.

Hailee Steinfeld had the cheekiest accessory of the night: a camera in hand, even as her dress stated, "No photos please."
