Madelyn Cline Embraces Ethereal Beauty at the Met Gala 2024

The star-studded event of the year, the Met Gala 2024, saw Madelyn Cline return with an enchanting look that was nothing short of ethereal. At just 26 years old, the actress captured everyone’s attention with a whimsical and fairy tale-inspired gown, perfectly attuned to this year’s theme inspired by J.G. Ballard’s *The Garden of Time*.

The Inspiration Behind Her Look

Madelyn Cline was determined to make a statement at the second Met Gala in 2024. She chose a look that seemed like it had been plucked right from a fairytale garden, resonating deeply with Ballard’s narrative of time and transformation.

A Palette of Whispers

Her ensemble was marked by a classic white color palette—a nod to the timeless Greco-statue gardens. The dress featured intricate floral and vine motifs that paid homage to the central symbol in *The Garden of Time*. Designed by Tommy Hilfiger, the gown’s collar and button elements echoed the brand’s iconic polo aesthetic.

“It was love at first sight,” Madelyn shared about her gown. “From the shirt dress design to the thematic floral motifs on the skirt, everything felt perfectly aligned with both the theme and my personal style.”

Glamorous Touches That Capture a Mystical Garden

Madelyn’s makeup was crafted by Jen Tioseco of Revlon to exude an ethereal quality befitting the mystical garden ambiance.

• Skin Radiance: Dewy and fresh skin was achieved using Illuminance Serum Tint.
• Illuminating Highlights: The SkinLights Prismatic Highlighter added a celestial glow, complemented by peach blush and bronzer for warmth.

The makeup focused heavily on Madelyn’s eyes, with pearl white eyeshadow in the inner corners creating an alluring pop of color—a trick she credited to Tioseco. “Keeping the skin simple allowed us to make the eyes the star of the show,” Cline explained.

Chic Hair and Lip Combo

Her hair, styled by Marc Mena, featured beautifully lush waves that resembled a fairytale princess’s crown, using Great Lengths tape-ins and Maria Nila styling products. The final touch was Madelyn’s signature lip color: Revlon’s ColorStay Longwear Lip Liner in Nude paired with Super Lustrous Lipstick in Bare It All.

A Night to Remember

With her look complete, Madelyn Cline prepared for an unforgettable evening. “The energy at the Met Gala is incredible,” she said. “It’s essential to take moments to savor it all.” She emphasized the importance of self-care rituals and a celebratory glass of champagne before stepping into the gala.

Reflecting on her previous experience, Cline expressed excitement for the return: “My first Met Gala was unforgettable, and being back this year is thrilling. The night flies by so quickly!”
