Met Gala 2024: Rita Ora goes nude in a barely-there bodysuit adorned with thousands of ancient beads as she smoulders on the red carpet

Rita Ora left very little to the imagination as she stepped out on to the Met Gala red carpet wearing no underwear on Monday.

Leaving for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute, the Body On Me singer, 33, put on a very daring display in a sheer nude bodysuit designed by MARNI.

Flaunting her incredibly toned physique, Rita went braless in the revealing garment, arriving at the event with her husband Taika Waititi, who was ever the gentleman as he helped sort her dress train on the red carpet.

For Rita's 10th appearance at the fundraiser, she put her figure on full display as a curtain of colourful beads barely concealed her modesty.

The singing sensation revealed the beading on the dress dates back to 1st and 2nd century BC and they are sourced from all over the world.

They also shared a sweet kiss on the red carpet 

She told carpet presenters Gwendoline Christie and Ashley Graham: 'I think some of these beads are older than people on the planet... It is very heavy'.

To accessorise, Rita paired her bold look with a pair of nude heels and a gold bag.

She was spotted leaving the Carlyle Hotel wearing a bizarre headpiece which seemed to have been discarded before she arrived at the star-studded event.

Rita looked incredible as she styled her brunette tresses into a short, wet-look bob to match her glossy makeup.

She wanted to celebrate women's existence with her look, as she told Entertainment Tonight: 'Hi guys, I'm wearing a necklace this year at the Met. 

'This is about the beauty of the body and women's existence and presence. [It's about] not doing as much but also doing a lot, you see what I mean? And these beads are from actually second century BC.'

Rita noted that she just wanted to show that beauty can 'stand the test of time' as she noted that her husband was also wearing an outfit made by the luxury designer.

She said: 'This is all about beauty just standing the test of time! He's also wearing Marni'

Taika  was then asked what he made of his wife's look and hailed the ensemble as 'incredible'. He said: 'Incredible, I looked at all the details of every bead, thousands of years.'

But the only drawback for  Rita was that she had not thought about the practicalities of going to the bathroom as she admitted she didn't have a spare outfit to change into.

She added: 'No, I don't [have anything else], I also didn't think about the bathroom so I might just have to poke a hole in the stocking!'

Taika also looked incredible as he stepped out in a soft brown two-piece leather suit which was also designed by MARNI.

In keeping with his very brown ensemble, he paired his look with a pair of matching boots, shirt and tie. 

Upping the glam, he accessorisorised his unique look with a Jacob & Co. Royal Tourbillon Timepiece and a Yellow Diamond Riviera Necklace.

The pair put on a very loved-up display as Taika was spotted cheekily pinching Rita's behind while posing for snaps.

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.

The pieces will all be displayed using elements such as AI, GCI, and more while playing up themes of land, sea, and sky. 

'It is very much an ode to nature and the emotional poetics of fashion,' said Andrew Bolton, Wendy Yu Curator in Charge of The Costume Institute, of the upcoming exhibition. 

'One thing I hope this show will activate is that sensorial appreciation of fashion.'

Guests expected to attend include the Kardashians, Blake Lively, Hailey Bieber, Sarah Jessica Parker and Timothee Chalamet. 

Gwendoline Christie, La La Anthony and Ashley Graham are hosting while YouTuber Emma Chamberlain is expected to interview stars on the red carpet.
