Bozoma Saint John joined “Extra’s” Mona Kosar Abdi and Adam Glassman to talk 2026 Met Gala fashion, and her own look was on-point!
The “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star teased, “I understood the assignment,” showing off her dress.
This year’s Met Gala dress code was "Fashion Is Art," and Bozoma explained, “One of my favorite artists is Harmonia Rosales. She reimagines works by the Old Masters through the lens of African Orishas. This dress is actually inspired by an artwork I purchased from her called ‘Eve and the Orishas.’ She hand-painted the figure of Eve onto this dress, and the result is so beautiful.”

Rosales added sweeping red fabric to a white gown and then crafted and painted the first woman Eve, resulting in a stunning piece of wearable art!
Other famous fans of Harmonia’s work include Samuel L. Jackson, Lebron James and others.
