Nicki Minaj wore a custom avant-garde kimono designed by H&M to the 2017 Met Gala with the theme of "Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garcons: Art Of The In-Between". The kimono featured an obi belt with Rei Kawakubo's face, a duchesse satin top, black vinyl roses, and a red Swarovski crystal stripe. The unique look paid tribute to the theme of the event and stood out from other outfits on the red carpet.
