    Celebrities are flocking to New York City ahead of this year's Met Gala, and that includes the Kardashian-Jenner clan. On Saturday, May 2, Kendall Jenner was photographed arriving at a party hosted by Amazon mogul Jeff Bezos and his wife, Lauren Sánchez Bezos, wearing the perfect pre-Met red carpet outfit.

    The reality star made a stylish entrance wearing a vintage Mugler little black dress, acquired from REALLIST, and taken from the fashion house's Fall/Winter '93/'94 Ready-to-Wear collection. The sleek dress includes bow detailing fastening a plunging neckline, with the same accents featuring on the skirt's leg slit.

    Jenner—who is styled by Dani Michelle—accessorized her LBD with black pointed-toe pumps and a pair of black sunglasses.
