All of Naomi Watts’ best looks at the Met Gala over the years

Naomi Watts bloomed on the red carpet at the 2026 event, dressed in a gorgeous Dior gown.

The actress’ look featured a strapless, floor-length gown with a floral appliqué and matching flowers in her hair.

In a seeming nod to her role in Feud: Captive vs. The Swans earlier in the year, Naomi channelled her swan energy with this Balenciaga look at the 2024 event.

The ensemble featured a black, strapless, sequined, floor-length gown with a puffed shall and long white gloves.

At the 2018 event, she wore a custom Michael Kors gown that took an absurd 8262 man hours to create!

The dress was embroidered with gold, crystals and sequins.

In 2017, the 56-year-old stunned in a floor-length black Stella McCartney gown.

The piece featured a plunging neckline with shimmering netting across her chest and back, as well as a high split.

The actress wore a Burberry corset gown of chain-mail sequins and bullion thread in 2016.

The dress featured a fishtail skirt and was covered in handmade metallic yarn flowers with glass beads.

Naomi changed things up a bit in 2014 where she wore a very unique number that was quite different from what we’d seen her in in the past.

She opted for a Givenchy Haute Couture custom gown that strayed a little from her usual style, as it featured an ombré design with mesh detailing.

The star looked ethereal in 2011 wearing a Stella McCartney gown.

Naomi’s dress was a glitter and sheer number which nodded to designer Alexander McQueen who tragically passed away the year prior.

Naomi opted for a Stella McCartney gown once again in 2010.

At the event she wore a satin, one-shouldered fuchsia-coloured dress and went for an effortless up-do hairstyle.

In combination with her white tiered Mugler gown, Naomi rocked a bold red lip and classic Hollywood curls.

Being heavily pregnant didn’t stop Naomi from dazzling on the red carpet in 2007.

She stunned in a halter-neck, full-length black gown with a dramatic frilled-edge hem.

The 2005 Met Gala paid homage to one of the most celebrated design houses in the world of fashion: Chanel. 

On the red carpet, Naomi opted for a white, floor-length Calvin Klein gown with large ruffles, and she combined the look with a soft up-do.

Naomi’s first ever Met Gala was in 2004, and she looked gorgeous in this purple Marc Jacobs number.

This look screamed the early 2000s in the best way.
