We're always a little awestruck seeing the stars make their way down the Met Gala's red carpet. But the moment we're really waiting for?

Capes, trains, and intricate details make the backs of those gowns that much more breathtaking, and naturally, these ladies made sure to pose for that pic at this year's event.
See your favorite ensembles from a whole new angle ahead, then zoom in on the accessories we couldn't take our eyes off of.
