Sabrina Carpenter, the “Espresso” songstress, made a captivating transition from her mermaid-style gown at the Met Gala to a whimsical ensemble for the evening’s after-party. Embracing the night’s theme, “The Garden of Time,” Sabrina dazzled in a breathtaking baby blue minidress by Oscar De La Renta. The dress featured a structured corset top and a skirt artfully crafted from faux flowers, making her look like she had stepped out of a magical garden.
Completing her playful after-party outfit, Sabrina paired the floral minidress with white platform Mary Janes, adding a youthful yet chic touch. Her accessories were kept elegant with diamond jewelry that sparkled under the night lights. Her blonde locks flowed in loose, bouncy waves framed by her signature curtain bangs, adding a soft and romantic flair to her bold fashion statement.
While Sabrina decided to attend the after-party solo, her boyfriend, “Saltburn” actor Barry Keoghan, was occupied co-hosting another event at Soho House’s location in the Meatpacking District, in collaboration with Porsche. Earlier in the night, Barry had embraced a vintage vibe in a brown velvet Burberry tuxedo and a top hat for the Met Gala. However, for his hosting duties, he opted for a more relaxed look, sporting cream-colored joggers and a windbreaker, paired with a casual blue T-shirt, white sneakers, and a gold pendant chain necklace.
The couple, although walking the Met Gala red carpet separately, shared a sweet moment at the end of the carpet. They paused for photographs together, officially confirming their relationship to the public eye. In a charming capture, Sabrina was seen laughing while looking into Barry’s eyes, reminiscent of a modern-day Alice and the Mad Hatter. An observer on X (formerly Twitter) commented on how their ensembles seemed subtly coordinated, drawing comparisons to characters from the 2016 film “Alice Through the Looking Glass.”
Sabrina Carpenter’s floral minidress not only adhered to the evening’s theme but also symbolized her fresh and evolving style, perfectly blending fantasy and fashion at one of the most watched events of the year.
