Ice Spice looked cool as she made her Met Gala debut.
The 23-year-old attended the Bash 2023 in an exquisite, futuristic white dress that fit her like a glove as she worked her magic on the stairs, vintage camera in hand.
Adorned with countless beads, the gown shimmered in the spotlight and featured sheer slits of nude fabric that protected her modesty.
Ice – born Isis Naija Gaston – had her red hair styled sleek and sleek, with thick side-swept bangs that slanted across her forehead.
She worked long eyelashes and very shiny lips. She upped the glamor even further, flaunting long baby pink nails.

Ice Spice has been chosen by Vogue’s editor-in-chief to attend this year’s gala, TMZ Sports reported today.
The site claimed that the fashion editor wanted Spice there to spice things up in a bespoke Balmain dress.
Spice is relatively new to the hip-hop scene.
Raised in the Bronx, New York City, she began her career in 2021 after meeting record producer RiotUSA while studying at the State University of New York at Purchase.
She became known at the end of 2022 with her song Munch.
The 2023 Met Gala returns to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City Monday night, with everyone from Kim Kardashian to Paris Hilton set to attend the annual fundraiser.
Since 1948, stars have been climbing the majestic staircase to a very exclusive party where no selfies are allowed.

The event traditionally takes place on the first Monday in May. It is scheduled to begin May 1, 2023 at 6:30 p.m. EST.
Fans can follow the event in real time via a live stream on Vogue.
This year the theme of the ball is “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty”. The late German designer was the creative director of Chanel for many years. He passed away in 2019 at the age of 85.
His beloved cat, Choupette, was even invited to the celebrations.
The decision to honor Karl has sparked controversy, from criticizing the #MeToo movement to opposing same-sex marriage, given the many offensive remarks he’s made over the years.

“I’m against it for a very simple reason: in the 1960s everyone said we were entitled to the difference. And now all of a sudden they want a middle-class life,” he told Vice of same-sex marriage.
“Hard to imagine – one of the dads at work and the other at home with the baby. How about that for the baby? I don’t know. I see more lesbians married with babies than boys married with babies. And I also believe in the relationship between mother and child more than that between father and child.”
While he finally showed his support for same-sex marriage at his Chanel haute couture show in spring 2013, he still said he was “less keen” on same-sex couples adopting children, according to the AP.
In addition to the editor-in-chief of Vogue, who directs and hosts the annual event, the MET Gala 2023 will also be co-hosted by Penelope Cruz, Dua Lipa, Michaela Coel and also Roger Federer.
While the show may be known for its glitzy and over-the-top red carpet — with details of what’s happening inside they often remain mysterious — at its core, it’s a fundraiser for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute.
Last year, the 2022 MET Gala alone grossed $17.4 million, Billboard reported.

This year, according to Page Six, the ticket price went up from $30,000 to $50,000.
Even if you have the funds, that doesn’t guarantee you entry into the party.
Every guest must be invited, and there is a waiting list for the coveted golden ticket.
And status matters, according to The New York Times, which means the hottest stars are shooed away.
Paris Hilton is among the big names attending her first Met Gala.
Meanwhile, Blake Lively, a frequent attendee, announced she won’t be at the party.
“I’ll watch,” she said, according to People.
Elle Fanning, Kim Kardashian and La La Anthony are among the other celebrities in attendance.
As for Wintour’s role at the bash, Vogue’s editor-in-chief is organizing the party and overseeing the guest list and even the menu.
She has chaired the Met Gala since 1994 and continues to oversee each event.
