Phoebe Dynevor gave Victoria Beckham her Met Gala debut as she channeled a classic English rose in a sheer pink gown by the designer. 

The Bridgerton star, 29, turned heads in the elegant sleeveless tulle number as she arrived at the 2024 Met Gala in New York City on Monday evening.

The head-turning ensemble was very similar to the semi-sheer green gown worn by the Spice Girl for her lavish 50th birthday party. 

Phoebe, who became the first star to ever wear a Victoria Beckham design to the Met, opted for a similar gown in a pale pink colour which featured a laced floral design and a long train.

The actor told Vogue: 'Ten-year-old me could never have seen this coming, It's like something out of a fairytale.'

Victoria added: 'We decided to use vintage lace from our archives, as there was something quite romantic about reviving it and bringing it back to life – much like a sleeping beauty. 

'Phoebe is such a beautiful, talented young woman and I really wanted to design the gown with her in mind – to be almost like an extension of her. We even hand-dyed the flowers to match her skin.' 

The brand created the custom piece by balancing masculine and the feminine, while reflecting Phoebe as an individual.

Showcasing over 350 flowers, each one was hand-cut, hand-dyed in Faded Rose, a custom colour created to match her skin tone, and hand stitched onto the bespoke lace, while heavier fabrics were layered underneath the more delicate tulle.

The actress wore bespoke lace appliqué underpinnings, as well as Bucherer jewellery and shoes by Italian label, Paris Texas.

The actor opted for a subtle dewy makeup look to give the dress centre stage, only adding a touch of rosy blush and matching lipstick.

Her locks were tied in a neat bun as she accessorised with diamante drop pendant earrings, teamed with a dainty bracelet.

The Netflix favourite was also captured posing alongside beauty entrepreneur Charlotte Tilbury.

The make-up alum, 51, put on a very busty display gold bejewelled black gown with dazzling fringes.

The Costume Institute's spring exhibition falls on the first Monday in May every year and is held at New York City's Metropolitan Museum of Art.

This year the event is titled Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion while the dress code is The Garden of Time.

Jennifer Lopez, Zendaya, Bad Bunny and Chris Hemsworth are this year's co-chairs. Also on the committee is Vogue's Anna Wintour. 

The honorary chairs for the evening are Loewe creative director Jonathan Anderson and TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew.

'This year's co-chairs reflect a variety of career achievements, and all have distinct style histories with the Met Gala,' Vogue shared.

The showcase will feature approximately 250 items drawn from The Costume Institute's permanent collection - with many of the pieces too fragile to ever be worn again.

Alongside husband David, 48, and their family, guests included Tom Cruise, Eva Longoria, Gordon Ramsay as well as all her former Spice Girls bandmates, Emma Bunton, Geri Horner, Mel C and Mel B.

No expense was spared and it is understood £3,000 bottles of Posh's favourite Chateau Mouton Rothschild were served up, alongside £500 bottles of champagne.

Birthday Girl Victoria's elegant sleeveless dress featured ruffles at the waist and decorative floral detail to the side.

She kept her accessorises to a minimum and let the gown speak or itself, forgoing a necklace and opting instead for diamond bracelets on both wrists.
