Normani Showed Out in a Regal Valentino Gown at the Met Gala

Rising star Normani brought another stunning look to the Met Gala.

The pop star walked the red carpet in a mustard-yellow ball gown by Valentino, which had large puffed sleeves that rose above her shoulders, a cinched waist, and an open neckline. She wore her natural hair pulled back in a bun and accessorized with a matching diamond-and-sapphire necklace and rings.

Last night, Normani walked the MTV Video Music Awards red carpet. She wore a white faux-leather two-piece skirt set by London-based brand Patrycja Pagas, which she paired with matching pointed-toe stilettos. As for accessories, she accented the monochromatic look with silver hoop earrings and rings, and had her hair styled in a long braid.

The "Motivation" singer also made her return to the VMA stage yesterday, with a showstopping performance of her latest single, "Wild Side." Performing on a mostly empty LED set, she and her backup dancers wowed the crowd with their intricate choreography, before Normani ended the performance with a Janet Jackson homage and a surprise cameo from Teyana Taylor.

The young star has had an epic summer of both music and fashion moments. After making her surprise return with "Wild Side," she went viral for another princess-like look at the Dolce & Gabbana Alta Moda show in Venice. Normani channeled Princess Tiana in a full nature-themed ball gown, which featured a pink-and-white painted floral design and full black tulle skirt. She spent the glamorous night hanging out with Megan Thee Stallion and Ciara, whom she'll see again inside the Met tonight.
