Linda Evangelista dazzles at MET Gala, ending her public hiatus

A few years ago, Linda Evangelista took a break from her career after experiencing side effects from a fat-reducing procedure. Since then, the supermodel has made few public appearances. Unexpectedly, she made a headline return at the MET Gala, creating significant buzz.

Linda Evangelista is undeniably a fashion legend. She reached the pinnacle of popularity in the early '90s, becoming one of the most celebrated and highest-paid models globally. Throughout her career, Evangelista has worked alongside the most influential fashion designers and has been the face of campaigns for some of the most prestigious brands, in addition to featuring on numerous fashion magazine covers.

Evangelista vanished from the public eye a few years ago due to an unsuccessful cryolipolysis procedure aimed at fat reduction. Linda retreated from the media spotlight and described herself as "brutally disfigured".

The long-absent Evangelista made a dramatic entrance at this year's MET Gala. She looked radiant and was clad in a white sleeveless top and a form-fitting skirt. Her outfit was accented with long, semi-transparent white gloves and white open-toe heels. Linda chose her accessories carefully, opting for chandelier earrings designed by Ana Khouri this time.

Linda is a genuine icon and legend; we aimed to showcase her face as elegantly as possible. (...) The garment enveloped her figure up to the collarbones, perfectly complementing Ana's exquisite jewellery - designer Catherine Holstein shared with "Vogue".
