Lights! Camera! Action! The Met Gala is the biggest night of the year for the fashion world, and 2018's offering is no different. The event really is a favourite amongst the stars. Rihanna has been to the Met Gala a huge eight times since 2007, while Donatella Versace is the queen of the ball – she has now notched up 17 appearances at the benefit since 1995. It's a big night for gorgeous couples: Amal Clooney arrived hand-in-hand with husband George Clooney, Amanda Seyfried looked loved-up with her husband Thomas Sadoski, Bradley Cooper and Irina Shayk made their first BIG appearance as a couple (about time!), as did Shawn Mendes and Hailey Baldwin. Similarly, Riverdale stars Lili Reinhart and Cole Sprouse made their first MAJOR red carpet appearance as a couple together after months of speculation about their relationship. Scroll down to see how the stars interpreted this year's theme: “Fashion and the Catholic Imagination.”
