Iman, 66, is radiant as she rocks a giant gold headdress on the red carpet of the Met Gala

Supermodel Iman looked radiant while taking the red carpet of the 2021 Metropolitan Museum Of Art Costume Gala on Monday night.

All eyes were on the statuesque stunner, 66, as she modeled a giant feather headdress and hoop skirt adorned with wispy gold and blonde feathers.

Her crown, which like the rest of the look was crafted by designer Harris Reed, spanned several feet, appearing to glow behind her like a halo.

Beneath the structured shell of her skirt, which also reached wide, Iman donned a shining strapless jumpsuit in a gold brocade.

Continuing the glamour, she donned multicolored citrine and diamond pendant earrings by jeweler Fred Leighton along with amethyst and a vintage diamond cuff bracelets by Trabert & Hoeffer Mauboussin, circa 1935.

Iman’s vintage collection also included Fred Leighton Diamond and Yellow Gold Twist Cuff Bracelet by Boivin, circa 1930, and two stunning rings.

Smokey eyes, bronze lips and rich caramel waves only enhanced her shine.

The Somalian-born beauty said she was instantly drawn to the look when approached by designer Harris Reed.

‘He approached me and sent me this drawing,’ she said of the half-British, half-American fashionisto, who is best known for dressing Harry Styles on his iconic Vogue cover. 

‘It really felt hopeful, a ray of light after all the darkness,’ Iman continued.

The Met Gala is finally back after being cancelled in 2020 amid the pandemic, and then suffering a double-delay upon being pushed back from its traditional slot on the first Sunday in May to this September.

The event – which has the theme In America: A Lexicon of Fashion – features a heavy-hitting contingent of celebrity co-chairs: actor Timothée Chalamet, musician Billie Eilish, poet Amanda Gorman and tennis star Naomi Osaka.

The must-have accessory for all at this year’s gala is a Covid-19 vaccine.  

‘Currently, all attendees at The Met Gala on September 13 must provide proof of full vaccination and will also be expected to wear masks indoors except when eating or drinking,’ a spokesperson for The Met said last month.
