“Game of Thrones” and “Eternals” star Kit Harington graced the Met Gala 2021 red carpet with a casual swagger reminiscent of actors like Clark Gable and Cary Grant. This wasn’t an accident. Celebrity stylist Laila Hayani (@lailalhayani) intentionally set out to bring a bit of nostalgia to modern times, in a move that subtly pays homage to the land that invented movie stars fitting with this year’s American-focused theme.
