Bella Hadid just appeared on the Met Gala red carpet looking divine—and rather dominatrixy:

She's wearing a patent leather corset bustier with a black skirt covered in crosses, and topped it all off with a leather jacket with big, dramatic sleeves that give off vampirey vibes. She also has some dramatic lace-up gloves and a dramatic, intricate veil.

The outfit makes sense for the theme celebrating Costume Institute’s new exhibit Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination curated by Andrew Bolton.

Twitter had strong feelings about it (as they always do!) and shared their reactions:

Last year Bella wore a sexy, very naked jumpsuit by Alexander Wang:
