Wonder Woman star Gal Gadot traded in her armor for an airy ensemble with over $200,000 in jewelry

Wonder Woman star Gal Gadot traded in her armor for an airy ensemble with over $200,000 in jewelry at Met Gala 2019.

The 34-year-old actress still embraced her superhero stardom, in a way, rocking a unique cape during her appearance at the annual bash, held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City on Monday.

She was accompanied at the gala by Clare Wright Keller, who designed the unique ensemble for the actress.

Gaot was wearing a white guipure lace cape dress by Givenchy Haute Couture, which showed hints of the black silk knit bodysuit underneath.

She also wore thigh high boots in black lacquered guipure lace, which came up just below where the cape dress ended.

The actress also wore an ornate silver metal headband that featured crystals and large pearls.

For her jewels, Gadot was decked out in Tiffany, wearing over $200,000 in jewelry, with the bulk of that value in her earrings alone.

Her platinum earrings with several encrusted diamonds cost a whopping $185,000, while she also wore seven different rings at the event.

The actress rocked a Tiffany T two ring ($2,950), Tiffany Victoria alternating ring ($15,500), Tiffany Cobblestone ring ($10,000), Tiffany five-row ring ($6,900), Tiffany Soleste V ring ($2,250) and a Tiffany Metro ring ($2,300).

During the bash, Gadot also took to her Instagram story, to share a now-deleted video of Cher performing during the event.

While there is a strict ‘no selfie’ rule that has been implemented at the bash, that still doesn’t apparently count videos of the performances on stage.

Gadot also shared a video of her Justice League co-star Ezra Miller, and his unique mask featuring a number of different sets of eyes.

While Gadot doesn’t have any movies slated for release in 2019, she will have a big year in 2020, with two huge movies coming out.

She will return as Diana Prince, a.k.a. Wonder Woman, in the highly-anticipated Wonder Woman 1984, a sequel to her 2017 smash hit Wonder Woman, arriving June 5, 2020.

The actress will also star in Death on the Nile, a follow-up to 2017’s Murder on the Orient Express, starring Kenneth Branagh as Detective Hercule Poirot, arriving October 22, 2020.

Inside the invite-only Met Gala: Anna Wintour approves the guest list… and stars pay $35,000 per seat

Anna Wintour has the final say over each person on the guest list

The annual Met Gala extravaganza raises money for the museum’s Costume Institute kicks off the Met’s annual major fashion exhibition — look out, because the theme is ‘camp.’

And the more outrageous the outfit, the better for the Met Gala red carpet, where the A-listers strut their stuff, usually in the most eye-popping ensemble they can find to match the theme.

Last year, Rihanna showed up in full papal-esque regalia, and Madonna wore a regal black gown – with a see-through cross in the bodice – to go along with the ‘Heavenly Bodies’ concept.

Want a seat? They go for $35,000 a piece.

Attendance is by invitation only, and word has it that Vogue editor extraordinaire Anna Wintour has the final say over each person on the guest list.

Organizers did reveal a smattering of names last month — members of the so-called ‘host committee’ — and so expect to see Jennifer Lopez, Bradley Cooper, Katy Perry and Priyanka Chopra.

Wintour co-chairs the event this year with an eclectic mix of boldface names — Gucci designer Alessandro Michele, pop diva Lady Gaga, British singer Harry Styles and tennis superstar Serena Williams.

So what exactly is ‘camp’?

The museum’s exhibition is based on ‘Notes on Camp,’ an essay written in 1964 by American author Susan Sontag.

‘Camp is by nature subversive (…) confronting and challenging the status quo,’ the Costume Institute’s head curator Andrew Bolton said Monday at a press event about the exhibition before the gala.

‘In the end, the purpose of camp is to put a smile on our faces and a warm glow in our hearts.’

Some of the items in the exhibition might best explain the theme: the ‘swan dress’ worn by Bjork to the Oscars, a glittering costume worn by flamboyant US singer Liberace, a shower head necklace designed by the late Karl Lagerfeld for Chloe in the 1980s.

‘We’re experiencing a resurgence of camp — not just in fashion, but in culture in general,’ said Bolton.

‘Camp tends to come to the fore in moments of social and political instability. The 1960s was one such moment as were the 1980s.’

The exhibition ‘Camp: Notes on Fashion’ — a play on the title of Sontag’s essay — formally opens at the Met on Thursday and runs through September 8.
