That’s a whole lotta look! Neil Patrick Harris and his fiancé David Burtka turned heads at the Met Gala in New York City on Monday evening, May 5. 

The longtime couple went bold for the star-studded soirée, rocking coordinated tuxedos with slim-fit ankle-length pants, white cummerbunds and bow ties, and cropped coats featuring long tails.

The How I Met Your Mother actor also took a little makeup inspiration from his drag costume from his current role in Broadway’s Hedwig and the Angry Inch. Currently sporting brunette locks, Harris highlighted his features with bronzer on his cheeks and eyeliner drawing out his eyes.
