Indeed, her appearance was so captivating that husband Russell Wilson playfully mentioned to Zuri Hall from TopMob News about his intentions for “having Cinco tonight.” This was a humorous reference to his plan to expand their family by potentially having a fifth child with Ciara.

Ciara playfully commented, “He’s attempting to claim Cinco, Seis, and Siete,” referring to her children Sienna (8), Win (4), Amora (16 months) whom she shares with Russell, as well as her 10-year-old son Future Jr. from her previous relationship with Future.

Speaking as a lifestyle connoisseur, I must say that the anticipation leading up to the Met Gala this year was akin to the excitement of a bride preparing for her big day. Indeed, as I got ready alongside my partner, Russell, I couldn’t help but feel that unique blend of nerves, joy, and exhilaration that is distinctly “wedding vibes.

Excitedly, I couldn’t help but feel a flutter of anticipation tonight. You see, we were both prepping ourselves in separate rooms, so our reunion happened only after we had gotten ready.

2019’s Met Gala is spearheaded by Anna Wintour, Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton, A$AP Rocky, and Pharrell Williams, while LeBron James holds the position of honorary chair. The theme for this year’s event focuses on aspects explored in Monica L. Miller’s 2009 book, “Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity,” from the 18th century.

Indeed, Ciara has graced the fashion fundraiser before; it was back in 2006 that she first appeared on the scene.

Two years on, she drew inspiration from Russell’s style guide, donning a vibrant neon green dress, designed by Dundas, that mimicked his No. 3 jersey. Notably, Ciara adorned herself with the genuine Super Bowl ring of the NFL star, as a tribute to the patriotic theme of the celebration.

On the 2021 red carpet, she shared with Vogue: “Fashion plays a significant role in how I showcase my individuality, and it pushes me to experiment.” She added, “When you reflect on those past images, you might wonder, ‘What was I trying to accomplish?’ Yet, I was expressing myself, and that’s the charm and strength of fashion.
