While the vast majority of the Met Gala attention is on the red carpet gowns, the men of Hollywood certainly looked the part on fashion's biggest night.

Everyone from British rapper Stormzy to Ryan Reynolds, who co-chaired the event, turned out in sharp tailoring befitting the occasion.

Taking this year's white tie Gilded Glamour theme seriously, the gents turned out in three-piece suits, tuxedos and suits with tails.

Reynolds, styled by Ilaria Urbinati, wore a rich chocolate brown velvet design by Ralph Lauren, which complemented his wife Blake Lively's Atelier Versace gown, while Moon Knight star Oscar Isaac wore a dress by Thom Browne.

“I’m wearing this Thom Browne dress,” Isaac said from the red carpet. “I feel very comfortable.”

The actor previously wore a kilt by the designer for the London premiere of Moon Knight.

Sticking to the New York Regency era-referencing theme, Canadian singer Shawn Mendes channelled the Bridgerton wardrobe in his burgundy Tommy Hilfiger suit.

Stormzy wore a white caped suit by Burberry, telling reporters: "I'm wearing Burberry by the legendary Riccardo Tisci. Usually I wear all black, I wear my tracksuit, so it's nice to shine today." The rapper was styled by London stylist Melissa Holdbrook-Akposoe.

Jared Leto and Gucci's Alessandro Michele acknowledged their aesthetic similarities, and arrived wearing identical Gucci embellished suits, walking the red carpet like twins.
