The Met Gala, of course, is about taking style chances.

Owens wore a white suit with a fur stole and fringed bell-bottoms. He carried a cane. Biles was dressed in a bright blue gown with a large train and white collar.

Biles frequently posts photos showing her with Owens on her Instagram page.

According to People, Owens and Biles served on the host committee for the Met Gala, and it was their debut at the iconic event.

The theme for this year's Met Gala was “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.”

The couple joked that getting ready for the Met Gala was "more stressful to get ready for than the Olympics," People reported.
