The Met Gala is an event that’s centered on fashion. While viewers tend to focus on the stars that walk the red carpet and the designs that they wear, attendees also honor the designers, which is why it’s common to see artists walking the red carpet alongside the person responsible with their look.
Over the course of Shakira’s walk through the red carpet, Gordon ensured that every part of her dress and her look was properly placed and draped. In various videos that have been circulated online, Gordon is seen arranging the dress’ tail.
