Phoebe Dynevor showed off her chic sense of style as she departed The Mark Hotel ahead of the Met Gala at New York City's Metropolitan Museum of Art on Monday.

The actress, 27, gave a glimpse at her midriff and her bra through the mesh material of her Louis Vuitton SS22 RTW dress.

She put on a leggy display as she posed outside the hotel with her garment being see-through on the lower skirt.

The gown featured delicate lace detailing to the front and at the bottom of the skirt.

Carefully placed beads and sequins sparkled in the light as she stood outside in the Big Apple.

The star, who was styled by Nicky Yates, confidently posed with her hands on her hips and wore lashings of make-up to highlight her pretty facial features.

Her beauty look for the evening was created by make-up artist Sofia Tilbury, who used a slew of products from her aunt, Charlotte Tilbury's brand to ensure the Bridgerton star looked her very best on the red carpet. 

'The inspiration for Phoebe’s makeup look was a modern interpretation of Victorian Glamour,' Sofia explained. 

'She wore a beautiful, black lace dress by Louis Vuitton, so we created a fresh, flawless looking skin using Charlotte’s Beautiful Skin Foundation, with a reverse feline flick to accentuate the shape of her eyes against her dark, crimped hair. 

'We finished with a pretty pink lip using the K.I.S.S.I.N.G. Lipstick in Runway Royalty and pressed Charlotte’s Hollywood Contour Wand over the cheeks to create a pared back monochromatic contour.'

Phoebe then added a touch of sparkle to her look by opting for a pair of glamorous silver pendulum earrings. 

The Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute Benefit, also known as the Met Gala, is considered by many as the 'Super Bowl of celebrity red carpets'.

Fashion's biggest night is traditionally held the first Monday in May to raise money for the Costume Institute in New York City, with last year's event moved to September due to the pandemic. 

This year's dress code is 'gilded glamour' to match the theme of 'In America: An Anthology of Fashion,' a continuation of last year's 'In America: A Lexicon of Fashion.'

Tickets for the glitzy event can reportedly cost up to $35,000 apiece, while prices for a table range from $200,000 to $300,000, with last year's bash raking in a  whopping $16.4 million for the Met's Costume Institute.

Regina King, power couple Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, and Lin-Manuel Miranda are hosting this time, taking over from Timothée Chalamet, Billie Eilish, Amanda Gorman and Naomi Osaka. 

This will be Miranda's first time as a Met Gala co-chair (and guest) but he was originally intended to co-host the 2020 edition before the pandemic forced its cancellation. 

Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour is once again supervising the benefit as chairwoman, a position she's held since 1995. Her fellow honorary co-chairs are designer Tom Ford and Instagram head Adam Mosseri. 

As usual, the sartorial theme comes from the exhibit the gala launches: 'In America: An Anthology of Fashion,' which is the second of star curator Andrew Bolton's two-part show exploring the roots of American style.

This exhibit will showcase some lesser-known designers, and also some top film directors, including Sofia Coppola, Martin Scorsese, host King, and last year's Oscar winner Chloé Zhao.

Bolton said eight directors will create what he called 'cinematic vignettes' in the period rooms of the American Wing of the museum. 

Similar to the September event, there will be 400 guests this year, lower than the pre-pandemic highs of 500-600 attendees. 

The other four are Ford, the celebrated fashion designer who's also an acclaimed film director, Janicza Bravo (Zola), Julie Dash (Daughters Of The Dust) and Autumn de Wilde (who directed the Jane Austen adaptation Emma. and is also a photographer).

The first part of the exhibition will remain on display in the rooms of the Anna Wintour Costume Center, along with the second part, until September 5.

More than half the pieces in the opening exhibition will be rotated out and garments from designers not yet featured will go on display.

The Met Gala is a huge money-maker for the museum, and provides the Costume Institute with its main source of funding.
