Heart Evangelista, for her part, actually prepared an outfit for the prestigious fundraising gala, which is annually held in New York City.
On Wednesday, September 15, 2021, the 36-year-old Kapuso actress played dress-up, and posted on Twitter what would have been her red-carpet look.
Heart wrote, "Yung aattend ka sana sa MET gala pero na traffic ka sa edsa … charaught"
Heart also reposted the photos on her Instagram account.
The I Left My Heart in Sorsogon actress looked gorgeous in a floral "signature piece" of Vietnamese designer Tran Hung.
Her sheath dress was dripped in Swarovski crystals, and was a great match to her high heels from Christian Louboutin and accessories from French luxury jewelry brand Chaumet.
Heart also flaunted her flawless legs with the dress' sky-high slit.
The dress was previously worn by British TV host and The Voice UK backstage presenter AJ Odudu during the Bulgari x Serpenti Metamorphosis Party at The Serpentine Gallery in London last July 22, 2021.
Heart's "MET Gala OOTD" got the nod of her celebrity friends.
Among those who dropped comments were Rhian Ramos, Sanya Lopez, Ruffa Gutierrez, and Angelika deal Cruz.
Former America's Next Top Model judge and noted fashion photographer Nigel Barker had one word for Heart's red-carpet look: "stunning."
