After canoodling around Europe and South America, Selena Gomez and The Weeknd officially made their debut together on the red carpet at the Met Gala 2017 tonight in New York City. They weren’t alone among the celebrity couples making their first joint appearances—Jennifer Lopez, stunning in demure Valentino, was there also with former Yankee slugger Alex Rodriguez. Both had competition for sure for the best dressed couple laurels, with co-host Tom Brady and wife Gisele Bündchen relying on eveningwear classics that stood out in a sea of black, silver, and, obviously, red. Fashion’s favorite couple, the designer Rick Owens and the eccentric Michèle Lamy, pushed fashion’s boundaries together, while Claire Danes stunned in a white Monse number with husband Hugh Dancy by her side. Relative Met Gala newcomers James Corden and his wife Julia Carey also charmed on the red carpet. Here, see all the best dressed couples at the 2017 Met Gala.
