Nicki Minaj says the 2022 Met Gala 'cemented' her decision to get a breast reduction. Here are all 6 of her gala ensembles.

The 2013 Met Gala theme was "Punk: Chaos to Couture," but Minaj kept things simple in a dark blue gown featuring cut-outs along the midriff and a square neckline. Tommy Hilfiger designed the gown and gifted Minaj a $32,000 Rolex for being his guest at the event.

"Oh gee, thx Tommy," she wrote on X, known as Twitter at the time.

Minaj waited three years to attend her next Met Gala, which had the "Manus x Machina: Fashion in an Age of Technology" theme. She posed with designer Jeremy Scott, wearing a Moschino creation on the red carpet. Scott announced in March 2023 that he intended to step down from his role with the luxury fashion brand.

The sheer black dress featured a plunging necklace and black belts with bejeweled buckles. Minaj also wore black sheer opera gloves.

The "Pink Friday 2" rapper arrived at her third Met Gala wearing a black and red outfit. That year's theme was "Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons: Art of the In-Between."

Vogue reported that Minaj's ensemble — designed in collaboration with H&M — included a duchess satin kimono top, an obi belt with designer Rei Kawakubo's face, and intricate details like a strip of red Swarovski crystals.

Minaj wore another black and red ensemble to the Met Gala in 2018 when the theme was "Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination."

She arrived in an ombré Oscar de la Renta gown with black fabric at the top that gradually turned a bold red. She topped the gown with a matching robe featuring a long train and a detailed headpiece.

Minaj attended the 2019 Met Gala — with the "Camp: Notes on Fashion" theme — in an all-pink halter minidress designed by Prabal Gurung. It included a plunging sweetheart neckline, an extravagant train, and silver jewels strung across the fabric.

During a red carpet interview with Entertainment Tonight that May, Minaj admitted that she didn't understand the event's "camp" theme.

"Up until today, I had no idea what 'camp' was," she told the outlet. "So, I don't even know if this is camp, to be honest."

The COVID-19 pandemic prompted Met Gala organizers to cancel the event in 2020, and Minaj didn't attend the 2021 ceremony due to vaccine protocols. However, she returned to the Met Gala red carpet in 2022 wearing a dramatic black gown by Burberry.

Harper's Bazaar reported that the all-black ensemble featured a strapless leather jumpsuit adorned with a large belt buckle and a long feathered train. Minaj's outfit was paired with a matching black cap, and she accessorized with black jewels across her skin.
