While most celebrities attending Met Gala<\/a> wore ultramodern attire, rapper Doechii<\/a> walked the carpet in a traditional West African-inspired look.<\/p>\n

During the Monday (May 4) event, Alligator Bites Never Heal<\/em><\/a> artist wore a custom burgundy two-piece Marc Jacobs<\/a> garment for her second time at the Met Gala. Doechii was also barefoot while walking the carpet, her feet and hands both covered in henna designs. She also wore anklets to highlight the temporary tattoos.<\/p>\n

To match her asymmetrical skin-baring dress, Doechii was crowned with a towering headwrap.<\/p>\n

On the carpet, the \u201cNissan Altima\u201d<\/a> artist stopped by reporters to share that the look was \u201cgrounding\u201d her. \u201cThis is art to me, this is human to me, it\u2019s vulnerable, it\u2019s feminine, and that\u2019s how I\u2019m feeling tonight,\u201d said the Tampa, Florida, native.<\/p>\n

Last year, Doechii was one of a few celebrities chosen to wear custom Louis Vuitton<\/a> during fashion\u2019s biggest night. For her Met Gala debut, Doechii rocked an afro, and a monogrammed LV suit with trouser shorts, calf-length socks and burgundy loafers fresh off her Grammy win for Best Rap Album<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In other fashion news, Doechii is also featured alongside Lady Gaga<\/a> on new single \u201cRunway\u201d from The Devil Wears Prada 2<\/em><\/a> soundtrack. In an interview with E! News<\/em><\/a>, the rapper said she and Gaga had \u201cmore to come.\u201d<\/p>\n
