Met Gala 2023 witnessed some unforgettable moments, including celebrity moms flaunting their baby bumps on the cream, red, and blue carpet. Tennis star Serena Williams and model Karlie Kloss made public announcements of their pregnancies, making it one of the most memorable highlights of the night.

The theme for the evening, “In honour of Karl,” inspired celebrities to pay tribute to the late Chanel designer Karl Lagerfeld. Serena Williams, who was attending with her husband, entrepreneur and co-founder of Reddit, Alexis Ohanian, wore a stunning black mermaid gown designed by Gucci, featuring silver edging and multiple strings of pearls around her neck, and a layered pearl headband.

In footage from the red-carpet show, Ohanian could gently rest his hand on her midsection. Williams revealed that there were “three of us” on the carpet, as this would be her second child.

Meanwhile, model Karlie Kloss revealed she was also expecting her second child with her businessman husband, Joshua Kushner. The 30-year-old model looked stunning in a Loewe outfit by Northern Irish fashion designer Jonathan Anderson. Her black gown featured Lagerfeld’s signature strings of pearls, with a trompe-l’oeil design giving a modern, surrealist edge to the ensemble.

Speaking to Vogue, Kloss said she was thrilled to share her news at the Met Gala, which was the first time she had revealed her pregnancy. She described the moment as “vulnerable,” adding that she didn’t know how to style her growing belly. However, Kloss’ dress had a tight silhouette and long sleeves to show off her bump, tapping into the red-carpet maternity fashion trend for sleek, skintight designs.
