You probably noticed that there were a few famed faces missing from this year's Met Gala guest list, one of those being our style muse Bella Hadid.
Although she wasn’t in attendance for the fashion sphere's most famed night of the year, her recent floral printed corset silk dress would have been perfect for “The Garden of Time” dress code.

She paired the dress with a long-line waist, lace up corset made from the same fabric which she wore over top of her slinky gown.

As for her glam, she mimicked the same smokey eye make-up look and side part hairstyle she wore just a few days ago whilst out on a date with her cowboy boyfriend Adan Banuelos.
Bella wore her sensational gown to celebrate the launch of her newly released fragrance brand Orebella, which fans assume is why she wasn’t spotted hand in hand with her supermodel sister Gigi at the Gala.

Although the youngest Hadid sister skipped this year's Met Gala celebration, her recent style game has been so overwhelmingly striking we can’t help but forgive her for her absence.
After all, there’s always next year…
