More about Shawn Mendes' look at the Met Gala 2022
Shawn Mendes walked the carpet in a navy and red-colored Tommy Hilfiger coat. His initials "S.M." were embroidered on the inner lining of the coat.
The pop star later removed his coat to reveal a sleek navy suit from Tommy Hilfiger. The second look had a monotone navy-colored suit. He had a matching turtleneck underneath the suit.
The In My Blood singer also showed off a coat of nail polish on his hands, which gave a modern look to his Gilded Glamor-themed outfit.
Mendes looked sharp on his way into the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The theme definitely encouraged the music star to interpret late 19th-century clothing through a modern lens.
