At the Met Gala 2026, Bad Bunny (Puerto Rican rapper and actor) made a striking entrance as a hyper-realistic 85-year-old version of himself, embracing the evening's 'Costume Art' theme. The transformation was crafted by Mike Marino, known for his work on Heidi Klum's iconic looks. Every detail, from wrinkles to sunspots, was meticulously sculpted to reflect the passage of time, aligning with the exhibition's focus on the 'ageing body.' Bad Bunny humorously remarked that it took him '53 years exactly to design this outfit.' He complemented the prosthetics with a custom black tuxedo from Zara, featuring an oversized pussybow reminiscent of Charles James's 1947 design. The minimal styling allowed the aging makeup to take center stage, and he accessorized with a cane, Cartier jewelry, and an archival luxury watch. Social media was abuzz with reactions, with many praising the realism of the prosthetics and joking about his 'time-travel' appearance.
