Mindy Kaling is throwing her hat in the ring for the Met Gala Challenge, which was launched by Vogue and Billy Porter.
The comedian recreated Jared Leto's famous 2019 Met Gala look and shared a photo of her version on Instagram.
In her caption, Kaling said she used tarp, Christmas lights, and packing tape to make her own version of the custom Alessandro Michele for Gucci outfit.
Since the annual Met Gala was postponed indefinitely, Porter and the publication asked fans to recreate their favorite looks and post them on Instagram using the hashtag #MetGalaChallenge between April 23 and May 3. After that, Porter and Vogue will select the best looks and the winners will be announced on May 4 (the original date for the Met Gala) in a post on Vogue.com and on the publication's Instagram page.
Kaling shared a photo on Instagram of her version of Jared Leto's famous 2019 Met Gala look, complete with a mannequin head that had a beard drawn on it to match.
"Recreating one of my favorite Met Gala looks ever with the help of a tarp, some Christmas lights, and packing tape. I think Alessandro Michele would approve," she wrote in the caption.
The comedian admitted to using a red tarp as her gown, string lights for the draped jewels, and packing tape to keep it all in place.
