Rita Ora Goes Trouser-less for the Met Gala Afterparty, but Adds Multiple Belts Anyway
We had high expectations for Rita Ora's Met Gala afterparty look, and the singer did not disappoint. Fresh from her showstopping Prabal Gurung corset dress with dramatic train that she displayed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on 1 May, she made an outfit change for the all-important afterparty that was even more revealing. On her way to Zero Bond in NYC, she stripped to her black underwear and donned a black bralette with matching high-waisted knickers. Ora has been a fan of the trouser-less trend of late, having previously rocked tights and knickers around LA, and she adopted the underwear look for the prestigious fashion event.
