In a dazzling display of elegance, Jessica Biel graced the Met Gala red carpet after an 11-year hiatus, catching eyes in a stunning pink gown. The event, held on May 6 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, marked her comeback in style.

In anticipation of her appearance at the 2024 Met Gala, themed "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion", Jessica Biel immersed herself in a unique preparation ritual. The night before the gala, she indulged in a 30-minute soak in hot water enriched with 20 lbs. of epsom salt, a moment she shared with fans on TikTok, affirming, for real, as she poured the salts.

This year's Met Gala not only celebrated fashion but also paid homage to nature through its exhibit "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion", which showcases around 250 fashion items across centuries, including an iconic 1877 Charles Frederick Worth silk satin ball gown. Andrew Bolton, the Wendy Yu Curator in Charge at the Costume Institute, explained that the exhibition is segmented into three thematic zones�Land, Sea, and Sky�each illustrating fashion's poetic connection to the natural world.

The dress code for the event, "The Garden of Time", drew inspiration from the J.G. Ballard story by the same name, encouraging attendees to explore nature-inspired fashion narratives.


Jessica's return to the Met Gala spotlight was noteworthy, reminiscent of her last appearance in 2013 for the "PUNK: Chaos to Couture" theme, where she sported a black Giambattista Valli creation. Her husband, Justin Timberlake, who accompanied her in past years, missed this year's gala due to his ongoing world tour.


The Met Gala remains a cornerstone event that not only celebrates, but also sets trends in the fashion industry, with Jessica Biel's participation this year adding a memorable chapter to its storied legacy.
