Jasmine Sanders Wears H&M to Met Gala 2018
Model and actress Jasmine Sanders may have gained notoriety on Instagram as @Golden_Barbie but her talents have continued to land her on much bigger platforms. This year, the 26-year-old actress is making her first Met Gala appearance in an off-shoulder gilded H&M gown so glamorous that fans may wonder if she is indeed a real-life Barbie.
Jasmine Sanders joins a long list of celebrities including Ciara, Janelle Monáe, and Hailee Steinfeld, to don custom looks from the popular mega retailer at the MET Gala. Jasmine's pairing with the brand seems only natural as she is a big fan of H&M's accessibility and creativity. "H&M is such a creative brand that makes sure everyone can be fashionable and stylish no matter the size of your budget," said Jasmine.
The H&M dress is not a far stretch from her signature body-hugging, Hollywood glam red carpet looks, a trait Jasmine says she loves most about the look. "This look was really and truly me! They paid close attention to my body shape and type. Everything down [to] the exact color was perfect!" said Jasmine. During an evening when individuality and self-expression is widely celebrated, it is important that Jasmine's gown reflects her singular style, and looking at this bronze confection, it definitely does.
Jeff Sutera1/4Preparing for a red carpet is a real team effort for Jasmine, so she relies on her glam squad to make sure she looks her best. "A major formal dressing tip would be making sure you have another set of eyes with you to make sure the entire look is complete," said Jasmine. "There are certain things you might not be able to catch by yourself in the mirror so having someone double check behind you is very important."
Jeff Sutera2/4Jasmine hates feeling stressed right before a big red carpet event, so she's intentional about not leaving anything for the last minute. I "plan how everything will look ahead of time," she reveals.
Jeff Sutera3/4Knowing the transformative power of makeup and hair, Jasmine is quite selective about every detail of her beauty look. "I like to know what type of make up, style of hair, even nail shape and color, to make sure that the whole look pairs nicely with the outfit," said Jasmine.
Jeff Sutera4/4Beyond walking the red carpet, Jasmine is excited to get a sneak peek at the exhibit. "I can’t wait to see how all the different designers interpret this year’s theme!"
