All eyes were on Lupita Nyong'o at the Met Gala!

But, to be fair, it could have been because she was blocking everyone else on the red carpet.

The Star Wars star made jaws drop all across the front steps of the Met Museum when she turned up looking gorgeous—and with a totally out-of-this-world headdress, to boot! Nyong'o was dressed by Calvin Klein Collection, and arrived and posed alongside her fellow CK-adorned celebs Margot Robbie and Emma Watson. Although, no offense to Margot and Emma, but was anyone really looking anywhere but Lupita?

We think not.

But while all eyes were inevitably on her sky-high head-topper, we have to take a moment to give a shoutout to her dress, too. Because isn't that what tonight is really about? Lupita never wears a bad dress, but she really pulled out all the stops for the technology theme, but without resorting to the more obvious silver tone like a lot of other Met Gala attendees. Although we won't name names, of course!

After posing and vogue-ing on the red carpet, Lupita headed inside to the big party, where she'll be presumably be holding onion rings for her friends when their hands are full. Always lending a helping hand, that Lupita.
