People are being transported back to 2015 after Olivia Wilde and Margaret Zhang accidentally wear same dress at Met Gala

Two people have shown up to the Met Gala wearing the same outfit, and it's a pretty famous dress

It's always an awkward moment when two people turn up to the same thing in the same outfit but we can forgive it at this year's Met Gala.

That's because they're both wearing color schemes which perfectly match that dress from 2015, which screwed with people's minds so much that they couldn't tell whether it was white and gold or blue and black.

Cast your minds back to those heady days of the internet and people were losing their heads over what colour this dress was.

Now, two of the attendees for the Met Gala have shown up in dresses with exactly the same design, only with the different shades that had the internet arguing furiously over the dress.

The Met Gala is a chance for people to really show off their ability when it comes to fashion, so something like this was bound to happen at some point.

Speaking of fashion at the Met Gala, many celebrities are following the 2023 theme of 'Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty' which has proven to be a controversial choice from the organisers.

The choice to honor the late German fashion designer, who died in 2019, has been criticised by some who have referenced Lagerfeld's past comments in interviews.

During his career he was accused of making fatphobic, racist and misogynistic comments, including a 2009 interview where he declared 'no one wants to see curvy women'.

Dua Lipa has garnered attention for wearing a Chanel dress made popular by Claudia Schiffer in the 90s, while other celebrities have dressed up as Lagerfeld's cat Choupette.

Doja Cat arrived dressed up in a cat themed outfit while Jared Leto went the whole hog and donned a giant furry cat costume, which he later ditched for a black outfit and cape on the red carpet.

The dresses followed the same color schemes as that infamous one from the memes years ago.

Speaking of which, the red carpet itself has been transformed this year to fit with the theme, but people are not convinced it was a good idea, reckoning it was more 'Colgate' than anything else.

While some celebrities have really put their all into making sure they have the most fashionable threads, others have been planning on how to dodge the cameras until they actually make it to the Met Gala.

Some celebrities have been spotted heading for their cars protected by a formation of umbrellas, while others have been swaddled in wrappings and carried out of their hotels to hide their identities.

I think I preferred the days of just trying to guess whether a dress was black and blue or white and gold.
