From impeccably detailed updos to next-level makeup, theyre still iconiceven decades later.
Iman
Iman was a bronze goddess from head to toe when she arrived in 1981.
With lightly dusted purple eyeshadow and rosy lipstick, the actress was a modern-day fairytale princess come to life.

Her sculptural updo was perfectly complemented with a steely blue cat eye.
Bella Hadid
Bella Hadid arrived to the 2018 gala glowing as if sent from above.
Highlighted and lightly bronzed, the model looked divine with a golden-pink lip and subtle cat eye.

Jennifer Lopez
Jennifer Lopez was a futuristic ice queen at the 2019 gala.
