Tila Wasn’t Worried Her Nails Would Make Eating Difficult at the Met Gala (Exclusive)

Tila nailed her manicure at the 2024 Met Gala!

The 22-year-old “Water” singer wore a look inspired by “The Sands of Time.” Her Balmain gown was made of sand that embodied an hourglass and paired with studs dripping with diamonds.

Tila, who made her first appearance at the Met Gala this year, gave reporters a glimpse of her nails at The Mark before heading to the exclusive event.

Regarding her overall appearance, she chose the soft, timeless pink color. However, she added chains with small diamonds hanging from each finger.

When people asked if her textured nails would make it difficult to eat — and if she exercised beforehand — Tayla showed no concern.

“It doesn’t matter,” the singer quickly replied. “It just looks cute!”

Famous nail artist Coca Michelle, known for her glamorous nail designs, is the talent behind the gorgeous Mani Tila. Michelle, who has created looks for stars such as Beyonce And Megan Thee Stallion shared a report of Tyla’s Met manicure on her Instagram.

“Sands of Time ⏳✨ Multifaceted Crystal Collection @tyla In 2024 @metgalaofficial_ ⛓️💎,” the nail artist captioned the post.

Although eating at the Met Gala wasn’t a concern for Tyla, walking up the famous red carpet stairs was quite a challenge when she arrived at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Red Carpet Screenshots Prove it, photograph The star is lifted into parts of the stairs In the event.

Despite limited movement in the sand-covered dress, Teyla told La La Anthony during it Vogue magazineOfficial Red Carpet Live Stream, “I love the outfit and how everything went.” She and the creative team behind her look “wanted something outside the box this year,” she said.

said Olivier Rousteing, creative director of Balmain Vogue magazine The inspiration for the singer’s Met Gala dress — which featured three sand tones and was accented with delicate crystal studs — came from “the desire to redefine boundaries and transform an ephemeral material into an eternal masterpiece.”“.

However, the sculpted dress wasn’t very practical unlike the photo op on the carpet. In fact, Rousteing cut off the entire bottom half of Tila’s dress when the couple went inside!

The creative director transformed her dress into a mini dress by cutting it with scissors handed to her by Instagram fashion expert Eva Chen.

Rousteing shared a behind-the-scenes video of the moment on Instagram (which also revealed that Tila once went barefoot inside the Met), specifically cutting off her legs while she was still wearing the dress.
