The Gucci artistic director showcased a range of looks at the museum’s annual gala, where Nicole Kidman honored Denis Villeneuve and longtime co-chair Eva Chow revealed her departure.
By 6 p.m. Saturday, guests had begun arriving beneath the glowing lampposts of Chris Burden’s “Urban Light” installation at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art for the 15th annual Art+Film Gala.
It was Demna’s second LACMA gala since joining Gucci, the event’s presenting sponsor since its inception in 2011. While last year served as his Hollywood red carpet debut for the Italian house, this chapter offered a broader look at his vision, with Demna dressing a range of personalities in equally varied silhouettes and styles — from Viola Davis in a shimmering ivory one-shoulder gown and Salma Hayek Pinault, whose husband François-Henri Pinault chairs Gucci parent company Kering, in glittering red to Kim Kardashian, continuing her longstanding relationship with Demna stretching to Balenciaga, in a body-hugging burgundy sequined number.
Candice Swanepoel and Alix Earle both shimmered in silver, the former in a revealing gown with cascading embellishments and the latter in a fringed creation with a plunging neckline. Elsa Hosk and Alex Consani took different approaches to eveningwear, Hosk in a strapless gray gown with a sculpted waist and Consani in a voluminous black ballgown. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley turned heads in a sleek black gown with a dramatically open back that exposed her backside, while Quenlin Blackwell opted for a strapless black leather dress and Jordyn Woods-Towns wore a fitted chocolate-brown lace dress.
