Actress Margaret Qualley was a vision in Chanel at the 2021 Met Gala. Qualley is the ambassador for the brand, and she wore a piece from the Spring 2020 Couture Collection. The dress, a silk tulle and white organdy gown took 1,300 hours of atelier labor, thanks to the intricate floral design.

The design consisted of 95,000 glass beads, crystals, and sequins, all embroidered into the lavish dress. To match the gown, Qualley donned a pair of white gold and diamond earrings, along with a matching tiara. The entire look was classic, making the Maid star look as though she stepped out of a royal court in the early twentieth century.
