Inside the Met Gala Afterparty with FKA twigs

It wouldn’t be the first Monday in May without a starry BOOM after party. Last night, celebs turned their best looks at The Met Gala (embracing “The Garden of Time” theme) and headed downtown to The Standard, High Line. FKA twigs hosted our annual after...and you won’t believe who turned up.
"Anything goes at the Boom Boom Room," wrote Vogue, and the adage "All roads lead to BOOM" was alive and well last night. On the eighteenth floor of The Standard, High Line, FKA twigs held court while DJ Eli Escobar curated the vibe. Fresh from the Costume Institute gala, some celebs opted for outfit changes while others wore their carpet couture straight to The Standard. 

Music and fashion were out in force at the bash, with chart toppers like Sam Smith, Camila Cabello and Lil Nas X rubbing elbows with designers Prabal Gurung, Harris Reed and LaQuan Smith. More VIPs like supermodel Coco Rocha, Tessa Thompson, Aquaria, Ivy Getty and Tina Leung came through the door. Surest of all to get people talking, Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez cozied up in a white leather booth. Also on the list: Jeremy Pope, Pierpaolo Piccoli, A$AP Ferg, Tom Blyth, Willy Chavarria, Nell Diamond, Lourdes Leon and Moses Sumney

Twigs performed a set of songs so exclusive we can't even share the name of her new album (she whispered it to Eli, and his lips are sealed). Let's just say our guests got a first taste of her next era—and everyone was on their feet. 

"Everyone wants new music,” she announced. "So I thought it might be fun to play a couple of songs here tonight...Everyone looks so beautiful, and everyone is just expressing themselves, and that makes me so happy.”

Here's a peek at what went down...
