The silhouettes are not too telling to be fair. However, since netizens are expert sleuths, the blacked-out details on those coattails were enough of a cue to throw their picks in the ring. A few names that recurred were Zendaya, Cynthia Erivo,
and Camilla Cabello.
But the Kilt-like outfit silhouette had them nominating between Lil Nas and Timothée Chalamet. While a few bet on Rihanna and Queen Bey, none could say for sure.

Though the Met Gala has a history of hitting it out of the park,
thanks to Marc Jacobs, fans are now fanatically searching every possible couture field where the homerun could land.
It is only a matter of hours until New York City glistens in its A-list glow as celebrities spread their couture wings for fashion magic at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. This year’s event is led by the theme Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, inspired by Black fashion heritage and identity. While Upper East Siders already had the style repositories on speed dial for about a month, fans are now scrambling for fashion shelter as Marc Jacobs tailors the guessing game of the year.

Meanwhile, since fans are more or less confirmed about Cynthia Erivo, they are also strapping in for a possible Ariana Grande makeover by Jacobs. Tinseltown is bursting at the seams with fashion royalty, so choosing just five is basically harder than getting Anna Wintour to crack a smile. But fashion lovers live for the drama because when it comes to fashion, even the Devil kneels to Prada, or Marc Jacobs in this case.
