Jennifer Lopez made jaws drop as she made her highly-anticipated arrival to the 2021 Met Gala on Monday evening in New York City.

Moments prior, Jennifer was seen leaving for the Met with her boyfriend Ben Affleck, 49, who showcased his dapper side in a classic black tuxedo.

Lopez’s distressed dress clung to her enviably trim figure, while boasting a stunning stamped pattern throughout.
Resting on Jennifer’s shoulders was a gorgeous black fur shall, which she removed briefly in order to have her Met Gala look captured in all its glory.
She accessorized in all silver jewelry, including a chunky choker that hid her entire neck from view and varying wrist cuffs.
Hanging just below her choker was a large statement necklace that fell perfectly into her cleavage. She also rocked a pair of drop earrings.

Despite leaving their hotel together, Jennifer’s boyfriend Ben opted to skip the event’s red carpet – allowing his leading lady to shine.
After 17 years apart, Jennifer and Ben rekindled their once iconic Romance in April of this year. It came shortly after Jennifer called off her engagement to former pro baseball player Alex Rodriguez.
Bennifer first famously dated – and got engaged – from 2002 until their shocking 2004 split.
Ben would go onto marry Jennifer Garner, who we welcomed three children with, while Jennifer would tie the knot with musician Marc Anthony. Jennifer and Marc co-parent their 13-year-old twins Max and Emme.

The Met Gala is finally back after being cancelled in 2020 amid the pandemic. This year it was pushed to September from its traditional slot on the first Sunday in May.
The theme is In America: A Lexicon of Fashion and the event features a heavy-hitting contingent of celebrity co-chairs: actor Timothée Chalamet, musician Billie Eilish, poet Amanda Gorman and tennis star Naomi Osaka.
Honorary chairs for the evening will be designer Tom Ford, sponsor Instagram’s Adam Mosseri, and Vogue’s Anna Wintour.
At just 19, Billie will make history as the youngest ever co-chair of the prestigious event.

When the hosts were first announced, Vogue magazine said: ‘Each of the Met’s four co-hosts embodies the defining factor of American style: individualism.
‘[They have each] developed a distinct visual language for their public personas, one that is informed by the legacy of iconic fashion made in the USA.’
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.

This year’s gala will be a more intimate affair, to be followed by a larger one on May 2, 2022. Both will launch a two-part exhibition, a survey of American fashion to be on view for almost a year.
In America: A Lexicon of Fashion, opening Sept. 18, will celebrate the 75th anniversary of the museum’s Costume Institute and ‘explore a modern vocabulary of American fashion,’ the spokesperson added.
Part two, In America: An Anthology of Fashion, will open in the museum’s popular American Wing period rooms on May 5, 2022, and will explore American fashion, with collaborations with film directors, by ‘presenting narratives that relate to the complex and layered histories of those spaces.’ Both parts will close on Sept. 5, 2022.
