Demi Lovato put on a dazzling display in Prabal Gurung at the 2024 Met Gala.

The singer - who uses they/them and she/her pronouns - worked a silver gown decked out with stunning metallic florals.

Demi's dress featured a low-cut neckline, cinched waist, and magnificent train that skimmed the iconic staircase.

It marked Demi's first time back at the ball since her 'terrible experience' attending the soiree in 2016.

For her first time back at the ball in eight years, Demi, 31, opted for a glossy hairstyle with chic side part, a smoky eye, and dusting of rosy blush.

Their face was further touched up with a swipe of lip gloss.

Demi's look popped even more thanks in part to a diamond-encrusted necklace and flawless silver manicure.

The Confident singer was joined by the designer of her dress himself, Prabal Gurung.

Demi last attended the Met Gala back in 2016 and allegedly had an awkward run-in with Nicki Minaj at the soiree.

In a 2018 interview with Billboard, she revealed she had such a bad experience that she was driven to attend an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting straight after the glitzy New York fashion event.

'I had a terrible experience,' Demi told Billboard.

The Sorry Not Sorry singer, who has been candid about her sobriety over the years, continued: 'This one celebrity was a complete b**** and was miserable to be around. It was very cliquey. I remember being so uncomfortable that I wanted to drink.'

Demi explained that she stayed away from the bar but texted her manager and went straight to a 10pm AA meeting after leaving the event.

The look was complete with a glittering necklace and flawless silver manicure 

'I changed my clothes, but I still had my diamonds on -- millions of dollars of diamonds on in an AA meeting,' she recalled.

'And I related more to the homeless people in that meeting who struggled with the same struggles that I deal with than the people at the Met Gala -- fake and sucking the fashion industry’s d***.'

Demi didn't name Nicki in the interview but it was safe to assume she was talking about the Anaconda hitmaker after their uncomfortable run-in went viral the day after the Met Gala.

The rapper posted a red carpet photo from the night, showing her, Moschino designer Jeremy Scott and Demi but failed to tag or mention the songstress.

Shortly afterwards Demi shared her own photo from the night, this time showing Nicki giving Demi some serious side-eye with Scott standing awkwardly in the middle.

'This picture pretty much summed up my first and probably last met #cool #sof---ingawkward #notforme #sweatpants #forensicfiles #whatsgood,'

Her last hashtag referred to Nicki's infamous 'Miley, what's good?' that she said on stage at the VMAs.

Later Demi wrote on Snapchat 'When you aren't mentioned in a post but didn't do s*** to the other person.'

Later on she tried to make light of the awkward photo, writing: 'p.s. some of y'all need to learn how to take a joke.. I'm obviously laughing at the fact that 1. I look incredibly awkward and 2. That the shade being thrown in this picture actually gives me life.'

The Costume Institute's spring exhibition falls on the first Monday in May every year and is held at New York City's Metropolitan Museum of Art.

This year the event is titled Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion while the dress code is The Garden of Time.

Jennifer Lopez, Zendaya, Bad Bunny and Chris Hemsworth are this year's co-chairs.

Also on the committee is Vogue's Anna Wintour. The honorary chairs for the evening are Loewe creative director Jonathan Anderson and TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew.

'This year's co-chairs reflect a variety of career achievements, and all have distinct style histories with the Met Gala,' Vogue shared.

The showcase will feature approximately 250 items drawn from The Costume Institute's permanent collection - with many of the pieces too fragile to ever be worn again.

The pieces will all be displayed using elements such as AI, GCI, and more while playing up themes of land, sea, and sky.

'It is very much an ode to nature and the emotional poetics of fashion,' said Andrew Bolton, Wendy Yu Curator in Charge of The Costume Institute, of the upcoming exhibition.

'One thing I hope this show will activate is that sensorial appreciation of fashion.'
