When it comes to major jewelry, the red carpet at the Met Gala—what’s known as “fashion’s biggest night” and is arguably the haute couture event of the year—never disappoints. This year’s Met was no exception, with stars pulling out the best and brightest (literally) pieces to accompany their artful looks.
