Ontario’s own Shawn Mendes looked dapper as ever in an upcycled Tommy Hilfiger suit, complete with a dramatic open collar and blue nail polish. He told Emma Chamberlain during a red carpet interview that he was proud to wear the look and despite attending the Met Gala several years in a row, it always feels “different every year,” and “absurd in the best way.”

Reynolds was understated but refined in a dark velvet tuxedo, while his wife dazzled in an Atelier Versace reversible gown, which went from coral pink to aqua blue.
