Kanye West may not care about a “white tie” dress code, but you best believe he cares about making an entrance.

Before the 2016 Met Gala kicked off, West and Kim Kardashian stepped on the red carpet wearing Balmain. Kim’s silver dress was pretty standard for the event’s tech theme; however, Ye was looking a little out of place as he chose to pair a beaded jacket with a simple tee, some ripped jeans, and blue contact lenses.

When he was asked to explain his new blue eyes, Kanye was quick with a reply: “Vibes.”

Check out the Wests’ looks below.
