Stefani walked the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in aVera Wangchartreuse two-piece mikado ball gown with a bandeau top and long matching gloves over a voluminous skirt accented with hand-cut silk blossoms.
“I got a call that Vera wanted me to be her date, and I was just so honored that she chose me,” Stefani recalled. “She has such a distinct thing that she does that is so feminine and I think ever since I met my husband, that part of me has really come out in my fashion more than ever — the femininity that I didn’t really embrace for a lot of years, just because of being in a band with all guys and being on stage.”
Stefani continued, “Fashion and makeup are such an extension of our personalities and who we are at the time and who we want to be.”
