Some of the biggest names from Hollywood, fashion, politics, media and music arrived at the 2023 Met Gala on May 1st to honour Karl Lagerfeld for fashion’s biggest night.
This year, the famous carpeted stairs witnessed the most lavish looks filled with a monochromatic palette – echoing Lagerfeld’s classic Chanel palette. While we fed our eyes with unlimited glamour, Anok Yai‘s otherworldly Prabal Gurung dress captivated us.
The supermodel stunned in a sculptural glittery piece featuring the most striking silhouette, flaring dramatically at her hips, flowing in streams of silver to her feet. She teamed her mini dress with a brown mesh eye mask, dainty Mindi Mond jewellery and sheer elbow-length opera gloves, matching her tulle train paired with Jimmy Choo strappy heels.
Her luminous skin was her number one accessory, and go-to makeup artist Sheika Daley kept her makeup matte, featuring a dramatic eye look and glossy lips. Anok’s hair fell into loose waves with blunt baby bangs, partially covered by her statement shades.

<h2>Barcelona court granted bail to ex-Brazil defender Dani Alves on Wednesday, following the payment of a €1 million fee.</h2>
<p>After being found guilty of sexual assault in February, Alves was given a four-and-a-half-year prison sentence, having already served more than a year of his term.</p>
<p>Following the appeal filed by his lawyer, Ines Guardiola, and a hearing on Tuesday, the 40-year-old has been released until a final resolution is reached on the appeal.</p>
<p>The requirement for Alves is to hand in his Spanish and Brazilian passports and to remain within Spain, agreeing to weekly court check-ins.</p>
<p>Additionally, he is required to comply with a restraining order that prohibits him from approaching within 1,000 meters of his victim, her residence, workplace, or any other location she frequents.</p>
<p>The ruling issued on Wednesday grants a three-day appeal period to the defense, the victim's legal counsel, and the prosecution.</p>
<p><strong>Naija News</strong> had earlier reported that the Brazilian star was <a href="https://www.naijanews.com/2024/02/22/breaking-ex-barcelona-star-dani-alves-sentenced-to-four-years-in-jail/">sentenced</a> on February 22, following a conviction for raping a young woman at a Barcelona nightclub in December 2022.</p>
<p>The case against Alves was built on the testimony of the victim, who recounted her experience from behind a screen to maintain her anonymity.</p>
<p>She described a violent encounter in which Alves forcibly had sexual relations with her in the nightclub’s private bathroom, despite her pleas for him to stop.</p>
<p>This testimony painted a vivid picture of the victim’s “<em>anguish and terror</em>” during the incident.</p>
<p>The defence’s argument suggested that the victim had shown interest in Alves while they were dancing at the nightclub, insinuating a mutual “<em>sexual tension</em>.”</p>
<p>However, the court’s 61-page decision firmly stated that such an interpretation did not imply consent for any subsequent actions.</p>
