The 43-year-old creator of Never Have I Ever walked the 2023 Met Gala carpet in a silvery-white Jonathan Simkhai gown with a fitted bodice and floor-length fringe accent at the back.
She completed her glitzy ensemble with Kwiat pear shape and Ashoka cut diamond flower and fringe earrings, a Fred Leighton Edwardian pearl and diamond ring, and a Fred Leighton, 5.0 ct old mine cut diamond ring.
Kaling wore dark smokey eyes and a warm brown lip for a dramatic look. For the event honouring Karl Lagerfeld, she wore her hair in a long ponytail down her back, extensions and all.
The six-time Emmy winner has been seen on the red carpet for the biggest night in fashion for quite some time, as witnessed in 2018 and 2019 – a fitting feat for the Oceans 8 actress.
She looked stunning in a plunging lavender gown with a high slit and rosettes at the shoulders, a lengthy De Beers pendant, and Jimmy Choo heels last year.
She wrote on Instagram that night that she felt "honoured" to be wearing Prabal Gurung because the topic "In America: A Lexicon of Fashion" is "something I'm fascinated with."
