Camila Cabello caught everyone’s attention at the Met Gala with her unique ice clutch. The event took place at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City on May 6, where the 2024 Met Gala showcased some unforgettable looks. Her choice of accessory was especially unusual and came with a unique story.
Camila Cabello explained her unique accessory choice to Extra, saying, “I feel like it is impermanence and things decaying over time and the beauty in that.”
True to its theme, the ice clutch didn’t last the night. The former Fifth Harmony star revealed that the purse had transformed during the event. “It was a purse,” she said, “but then it broke about 5 minutes into being in line, so I called my stylist like, ‘What do I do?’”
With some quick thinking, Cabello decided to hold the remaining piece like a clutch and remarked, “We’re just trying things here.”
The clutch wasn’t just a block of ice. Designed by Jane Wade, it also featured a copper rose, echoing the single flower on the gala’s invitations, tying into the overall theme beautifully.
Cabello’s outfit included more nods to the theme of “beauty in decay.” Her stunning gown, designed by Ludovic de Saint Sernin, weighed 15 pounds and was adorned with 250,000 Swarovski crystals. The dress had intentional rips at the bottom, linking back to her theme of impermanence. To complete her look, she wore iridescent makeup and styled her hair in a “wet” ponytail.
The “Señorita”singer had the gala’s “Garden of Time” theme in mind when assembling her outfit, but she was also inspired by something else — her upcoming album, C,XOXO, set to release on June 28.
“It’s Miami-themed,” she shared with Variety, “so we’re dripping, we’re wet.” This statement not only ties back to her album’s theme, but also cleverly connects with her look and the gala’s overall ambiance.
Fans were quick to react to Camila Cabello’s unique ice purse, noticing that it was actually made from real ice as droplets visibly fell from it. Many initially mistook it for glass until they saw the melting. Concerned comments also emerged, with fans asking about the comfort of her hand, wondering, “Is your hand doing okay?” and even humorously questioning, “How did your hand not fall off?” One fan expressed admiration, exclaiming, “You are incredible! How could you even hold the ice for such a long time?”
The 2024 Met Gala featured the theme “The Garden of Time,” inspired by J.G. Ballard’s 1962 story. Celebrities wore outfits that highlighted the brief and changing nature of beauty and time. Check out more outfits here.

My Husband’s Grown Children Interrupted Our Honeymoon to Demand Our Villa, They Learned a Valuable Lesson About Respect
My husband’s kids didn’t like me. They never did. But my husband, Jack, stood by me when they crossed the line. His actions taught them a big lesson, leading to apologies and a chance to mend our relationships.
Jack had three kids from his first marriage when we met. Their mom had passed away years before I came into the picture. When Jack introduced me to them, it was clear they weren’t thrilled about it. Understandable, given the age gap between Jack and me.
I’m ten years older than Jack, and we’ve been together for over nine years, engaged for four. His kids, all over 21, never warmed up to me. Even though I never tried to replace their mom, they made me feel unwelcome whenever we were together.
I only moved in after they had left for college. Yet, they continued to act like I didn’t belong. When Jack proposed, they got even colder, disrespecting me behind his back. I kept quiet to avoid conflict, knowing Jack had already faced enough challenges as a single dad.
Jack worked hard to provide for his kids, even after they moved out. He wanted to make up for their mom’s absence. We finally had a small civil wedding, which his kids didn’t attend. They claimed they had other plans. We shrugged it off and focused on our honeymoon in the Bahamas.
But just two days into our trip, his kids showed up uninvited. They mocked me, belittled our relationship, and ruined our special time. When Jack found out, he unleashed his fury, kicking them out and cutting off their financial support.
It was tough love, but it worked. His kids realized their mistake and apologized. Jack forgave them, and we started anew, building a stronger bond than before. His actions during our honeymoon not only protected our happiness but also taught his kids important lessons about respect and responsibility. In the end, our family emerged stronger, thanks to Jack’s tough but necessary decisions.
