\n\tConnor Storrie<\/a> made his debut at the 2026 Met Gala<\/a> red carpet in New York City on Monday. The \u201cHeated Rivalry\u201d star wore an outfit designed by Saint Laurent<\/a>\u2018s creative director Anthony Vaccarello <\/a>and styled by James Yardley.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe 2026 Met Gala<\/a> marked Storrie\u2019s first-ever appearance at the event and his first as a Saint Laurent<\/a> ambassador. Yardley, who styled the look, said the starting point for his outfit was always Storrie\u2019s relationship with the house. \u201cFrom the outset, we knew it was always going to sit within that classic Saint Laurent space, which felt appropriate for his first Met with the brand,\u201d Yardley told WWD. \u201cMy role was to refine and shape what they presented so that\u00a0Connor\u00a0felt confident and comfortable in it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tStorrie\u2019s outfit featured a black suit paired with a high-ruffled polka-dot turtleneck blouse in black and white, anchored at the chest with a jeweled brooch. The look\u2019s defining element is a dramatic floor-length train in the same polka-dot fabric, caught mid-movement and billowing out behind him.<\/p>\n

\n\tBoth Yardley and Storrie \u201chad a clear sense of how we wanted it to feel\u201d during the Met Gala, which the stylist described as \u201cconfident, elegant and authentic.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWhat came through in the end felt aligned with Anthony Vaccarello\u2019s vision and his time at the house, with a quieter, more understated acknowledgment of the theme. There\u2019s a confidence in that kind of restraint,\u201d Yardley said. <\/p>\n

\n\tStorrie\u2019s invitation to the Met Gala follows a period of rapid rise in both entertainment and fashion. The 25-year-old American actor broke through internationally with his role as Ilya Rozanov, the brooding Russian hockey star at the center of HBO\u2019s hit series \u201cHeated Rivalry,\u201d adapted from Rachel Reid\u2019s Game Changers novels. He hosted \u201cSaturday Night Live\u201d in February and served as a torchbearer in the 2026 Winter Olympics torch relay.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe 2026 Met Gala took place on Monday at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. This year\u2019s exhibition, \u201cCostume Art,\u201d celebrated fashion as an art form, with a dress code of \u201cFashion Is Art.\u201d The event was co-chaired by Beyonce Knowles-Carter, Nicole Kidman, Venus Williams, and Anna Wintour, with Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez Bezos serving as honorary chairs. The annual benefit raises funds for the Met\u2019s Costume Institute.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Connor Storrie made his debut at the 2026 Met Gala red carpet in New York City on Monday.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":938615,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[77,33999,73869,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-938614","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-entertainment","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-met-gala","10":"tag-saint-laurent","11":"tag-uk","12":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/116520258957795329","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/938614","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=938614"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/938614\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/938615"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=938614"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=938614"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=938614"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
