The 2016 edition of the Met gala was lit. This year’s theme was Manus x Machina: Fashion in an Age of Technology.

This meant that celebs were expected to slay in futuristic and probably tech-inspired designs. And because Nigerians are awesomely creative, a Twitter user @bubblegumbae, photo-shopped pictures of celebs at the Met gala dressed in Nigerian attire.

See how flawless Beyonce looks with that gele.
