Maisie channeled her inner goth goddess in a black leotard with sheer sleeves, a long train, stockings, and black stirrups. “It’s inspired by The Matrix,” she told E! News in a red carpet interview. 

She completed the edgy look with a horned headpiece, noting that “the process of actually putting it all onto my head was only about two hours.” The actress said the outfit was designed by boyfriend Reuben Selby and his RS team in London.

In an Instagram post, Reuben wrote, “Maisie and I visited The Metropolitan Museum of Art in August 2019 for the first time and were inspired deeply by the collection and the exhibition Camp: Notes on Fashion. Little did we know we would see one of our creations on the red carpet two years later.” 

He also thanked Maisie for her “trust, support and creativity.” 

On the red carpter, Masie also shared how excited she was for her Met Gala debut. “Honestly, I have no idea what to expect, but I guess just like meeting everyone – just looking forward to having fun with people. It’s amazing, I’m loving it,” she said.

“I was brought up on American icons… these women in film shaped the women I became… It kinda makes sense to me to honor these people [through my outfit],” she said, referring to exhibit, In America: A Lexicon of Fashion.

Maisie, 24, rose to fame for playing Arya Stark in the Game of Thrones series. She also starred in movies Then Came You and The New Mutants.   – Rappler.com
