Venus Williams Shimmers in Swarovski at Met Gala 2026
Tennis legend Venus Williams co-chaired this year’s Met Gala in a breathtaking black sequin mermaid gown. Her sleeveless silhouette showcased her iconic sculpted arms and floor-length sweep. The standout feature was a custom Swarovski couture neckpiece by Giovanna Engelbert. This silver filigree collar with cascading crystal chains transformed her look into a wearable work of art. Hair artist JAWARA styled her hair in a high braided updo, while Karina Milan created her flawless makeup and Ronald Burton III oversaw the entire ensemble. Standing beside her was husband Andrea Preti, who complemented her in a classic black tuxedo with burgundy accents and a silver brooch. The couple, married in Italy and later in Palm Beach in 2025, made one of their most memorable public appearances together on the Met steps.
