Diana Ross at "The Eighteenth-Century Woman", 1981
While many of the most memorable Met Gala get-ups tend to follow the event’s yearly theme, some outfits are iconic purely for their look alone. To the 1981 gala -- themed “The Eighteenth-Century Woman” -- disco queen Diana Ross showed up in an extravagant feathered gown and matching coat. Along with Cher’s naked dress, Ross’ outfit was one of the most opulent and outré to appear on the Met Gala’s red carpet during the gala’s early years. The fit was so iconic -- and so fully embodied Ross’ love of feathery fare [[https://www.google.com/search?q=diana+ross+feather+dress&sxsrf=ALeKk00oH1H56gL3QhbBQfhv8Ghcvg5tww:158835905 6108&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiHn8LKqpPpAhXal3IEHVkBCVEQ_AUoAXoECAwQA w&biw=1207&bih=759) -- that the singer brought it out of the archives, over three decades later, to grace the red carpet of the 2014 American Music Awards [[https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2846847/Diana-Ross-shows-diva-dons-extravagant-feathered-jacket-attends-AMAs.html).
