Prior to her first Met Gala tonight, the 27-year-old star of If Beale Street Could Talk and the upcoming adaptation of Richard Wright’s Native Son has spent the past year and a half making waves on the red carpet. Styled by Wayman Bannerman and Micah McDonald, Layne has worn everything from fresh-off-the-runway Chloé to custom Dior with gusto but she views the attention garnered for her style as an opportunity to make a difference, including her debut on the Met’s red carpet.
