This isn’t the first time Solange brought the culture to the Met Gala.
She wore a whole du-rag to the gala last year. When asked about her inspiration, she gave the perfect response.

“My inspiration was Black Madonna, Saint Heron…all of the Black and African saints,” she said. “And I’m really excited because my du-rag says ‘my god wears a du-rag.’”
It’s clear Solange can do no wrong.
