    When Taylor Russell showed up on the 2024 Met Gala red carpet, my immediate thought was, Oh, she's taking it.

    Taylor wore a sculpted corset that looked like it was made from literal wood! She paired the piece, which was adorned with red flowers on the upper and lower half, with a draped skirt with a thigh-high slit and matching heels.

    According to Vogue, the piece was designed by Loewe, with whom Taylor has previously collaborated.

    Apparently, she was Jonathan Anderson's muse for the brand's 2023 spring show.
