Maria Sharapova wowed in a tennis ball-hued neon dress as she attended the 2024 Met Gala in NYC on Monday.

The retired tennis champion, 37, was inspired by her sport as she caught the eye in an off-the-shoulder yellow tiered dress - paired with a sweeping lime green jacket.

The star wore flowers in her sleek updo and sported smoky shadow and taupe lipstick for the event.

Maria walked the red carpet solo without businessman fiance Alexander Gilkes, with whom she shares a two-year-old son. 

The Costume Institute's spring exhibition falls on the first Monday in May every year and is held at New York City's Metropolitan Museum of Art.

This year the event is titled Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion while the dress code is The Garden of Time.

Jennifer Lopez, Zendaya, Bad Bunny and Chris Hemsworth are this year's co-chairs.  Also on the committee is Vogue's Anna Wintour.

The honorary chairs for the evening are Loewe creative director Jonathan Anderson and TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew.

'This year's co-chairs reflect a variety of career achievements, and all have distinct style histories with the Met Gala,' Vogue shared.

The showcase will feature approximately 250 items drawn from The Costume Institute's permanent collection - with many of the pieces too fragile to ever be worn again.

The pieces will all be displayed using elements such as AI, GCI, and more while playing up themes of land, sea, and sky. 

'It is very much an ode to nature and the emotional poetics of fashion,' said Andrew Bolton, Wendy Yu Curator in Charge of The Costume Institute, of the upcoming exhibition. 

'One thing I hope this show will activate is that sensorial appreciation of fashion.'
