On the red carpet, Zendaya watched Ross enter the event and said, "She's the reference!" Ross wore a similar look in "Mahogany" (1975).
On Instagram, Law Roach revealed his inspiration from Jagger's 1971 wedding suit for Zendaya's look.

Jagger was known for favoring tailored silhouettes in her public appearances. During her wedding to Mick Jagger, she ditched the traditional wedding dress for a white suit made by Yves Saint Laurent.
Meanwhile, Anna Sawai's Met Gala outfit featured a custom Dior suit and Cartier jewelry. The look was a nod to '70s tailoring and could also be interpreted as a reference to Ross. Sawai was styled by Karla Welch, who also dressed Ross' daughter, Trace Ellis Ross, for the event.
