Before Selena Gomez was running through the jungle with her “Wolves” song, Kanye channeled his own from his album “The Life of Pablo” at the 2016 Met Gala. Paired with his wife, the duo was one of the standouts of the night, successfully pulling off the “Fashion in the Age of Technology” theme. This is one of the most flashy of Kanye West outfits.
