Demi Moore's stunning 2024 Met Gala dress is made of wallpaper and took 11,000 hours to embroider

The actress turned heads in a glamorous floral dress and said it made her “want to do rumba.”

Demi Moore looked to the world of interior design for the 2024 Met Gala.

The 61-year-old actress walked the steps of the Met in an elegant textured Harris Reed dress on May 6, marking the first time Moore attended the event in five years.

Moore's black column dress featured a pink and white floral pattern and a spiked heart-shaped structural element. She accessorized with diamond jewelry from Cartier.

Her sleek hair and soft makeup – courtesy of Charlotte Tilbury – kept her dramatic ensemble in the spotlight.

In conversation with Ashley Graham on the topic Fashion On the red carpet, Moore said her dress was “not heavy at all” and in fact it made her “crave to rumba.”

Reed also shared that Moore's dress was made of wallpaper.

“It all started with this incredible Cartier necklace that Demi wears,” the designer told Graham. “It was inspired by the floral feeling it gave me. The entire piece is made from vintage archival wallpaper to be the vine for her thorns.

Moore added that the flower on her dress was Chloris, “which is true.” [named for the] Greek. . . Nymph of plants and flowers.

The 2024 Met Gala's theme, “Sleeping Beauty: Fashion Resurgent,” ties in with the Costume Institute's upcoming exhibition, which features approximately 250 objects — including 15 significant pieces like an 1877 silk satin ball gown by Charles Frederick Worth — spanning more than 400 years will include history.

According to Andrew Bolton, Wendy Yu's costume institute curator, the exhibition will revolve around three main “zones” – land, sea and sky – that pay tribute to the natural world. “It’s an ode to nature and the emotional poetics of fashion,” he said.
