“Water” may have changed Tyla‘s life, but diamonds were her best friend at the 2026 Met Gala.
The South African singer wore a custom Valentino dress with a top consisting of diamond chains, strategically draped to form a plunging bodice that covered just enough of her, and a turquoise drop-waist skirt boasting a high slit up the middle. (See all the looks on the Met Gala steps.)
Accoutrements included a bejeweled silver belt, aqua heels and silver pendants dangling from her wrists.
Complementing the look, hairstylist Yusef Williams used Wavytalk products to do Tyla’s hair, explaining that his overall inspiration was to do something “very ethereal like an art sculpture.”
Meanwhile, the artist born Tyla Laura Seethal only made her Met Gala debut two years ago for the “Garden of Time”-coded event, but her sands-of-the-hourglass-inspired look from Balmain that looked as if it had been built—sand castle-style—around her body was an instant classic.
Her shot bob hairdo at the time allowed her shoulders to glisten with sand-like makeup. And, to complete the timely effect, she held a functional hourglass as a “handbag” in addition to wearing a sleek gold necklace and John Hardy‘s yellow gold earrings and pavé rings.
