Tyla honors the ‘Sands of Time’
Met Gala rookie Tyla (you know, the one with the catchy tune Been Thinking) totally rocked this year’s “Garden of Time” theme. She was seen in a stand-out or rather sand out Balmain gown which hugged every curve. With the torch of reality, Roop and her handbag screamed “time marches on.”
The singer also adopted a completely new hairstyle. Gone were the bouncy curls, replaced by a sleek, layered bob that exuded confidence. While serving reporters tea, Tyla said the entire outfit was inspired by “the sands of time”, revealing the stunning hourglass purse she was wearing.
“I’m wearing the sand, basically, the sand of time. We really wanted something different for this year. I walked in Balmain, it’s my first time at the Met,” she told Met Gala 2024 red carpet host La La Anthony. “It feels amazing, I’m so excited to go inside and see all the pictures when I get home….” I just love the outfit and how everything came together.”
