Gigi Hadid and Adriana Lima channel Angelina Jolie at The Met Gala 2017 as Rita Ora and Doutzen Kroes sizzle in scarlet

There was a lot of leg on display at this year’s glittering event

GIGI Hadid and Victoria’s Secret model Adriana Lima appeared to have taken inspiration from Angelina Jolie at the Met Gala 2017.

The Tomb Raider star’s leggy pose went viral at the 2012 Oscars and it seems the trend caught on again as some of the biggest names in showbiz turned out for the swanky ceremony at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Gigi’s nude Tommy Hilfiger gown was split up to her thigh and the 22-year-old wore fishnet stockings to show off her lithe limbs.

As she posed on the red carpet, she stuck out her leg and channelled Angelina’s now iconic pose.

Guests will dress according to the Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons: Art of the In-Between theme.

The first was Yves Saint Laurent in 1983.
