Gilded Pages - Met Gala 2022 x Book Covers

Every year, Anna Wintour hosts a themed gala to raise money for the Met art museum in New York and every year, flocks of celebrities arrive dressed to the nines in unique statements. The 2022 Met Gala was last week, and this year's theme was "In America: An Anthology of Fashion" with a dress code of Gilded Glamour and White Tie. 

I adore seeing (and judging) each stunning variation on the theme so below, I have curated my favorite looks from the red carpet with a twist - each dress will have a book cover that matches! 

Just as a note, I have not read all of the books listed below and chose them only for aesthetic purposes :)
