Diana Ross Fans Rave About Her Epic Met Gala Dress

Diana Ross last attended the Met Gala in 2003, and her return got fans raving about her epic dress this year. That’s it, folks! We have a winner. 

The Epic Dress

While Rihanna got the crowd gasping with her surprise pregnancy reveal, when it came to style, the 81-year-old took it away. And, music fans couldn’t help but notice the finer details that made it even more special.

A few years ago, Rihanna wore her yellow dress with a long train that got fans gasping. However, the one worn by Ross seemed way better because of the finer details. The Touch Me in the Morning singer opted for white.

Harper’s Bazaar described it as “a floor-grazing white crystal-embellished gown…which she designed herself, with a matching feather-boa-trimmed cape and a dramatic hat that towered above her signature voluminous curls.”

The Extra Touch Got Fans Raving

The dress needed a bunch of guys to hold the train, but the breakout The Supremes singer from 1964 deserves some reverence, fans agree. Stunningly impressive, it was one special touch that moved Diana’s millions of fans.

 The huge cape was embroidered with the names of all of her children and grandchildren. On Reddit, one fan wrote, “The train has her kids and grandkids’ names embroidered.” Others looked carefully, and they saw there were many of them. The names included Jagger, Rhonda, Bronx, Evan Ross, and many more. 

Other Fan Reactions

Recalling Rihanna’s yellow train, one person wrote, “She replaced Rihanna’s omelette with an avalanche. Queen Diana swept everyone away.”

Here are a few more comments about the iconic Diana Ross:

• She started singing in 1959 and has lived to the age of self-transforming Transformers and AI fighter jets. Her career is almost as long and epic as her dress.
• Everyone else can just get back in their SUVs and go home.
• 81 where? My god she looks incredible.
• Oh my word. A living legend has arrived.
• Wow! Now that’s a statement dress and a grand entrance! Miss Ross is worthy!

Diana, The Living Legend

Diana Ross, a true icon of the music industry, burst into the spotlight with The Supremes in the 1960s. Her distinctive vocals quickly took them to international superstardom.

The girl group dominated the charts with a string of hits like “Where Did Our Love Go” and “Stop! In the Name of Love.” Soon, Diana found many fans who loved the powerful performer. 

Going solo in the 70s, Diana kept delivering popular music. “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough” comes to mind.

However, touring and the pressure of delivering took a toll on her first marriage to Robert Ellis Silberstein. Later, she married shipping magnate Arne Næss Jr., but they eventually divorced as well.
