Heated Rivalry-mania is still going strong.
Stars Connor Storrie and Hudson Williams know how to prompt a collective gasp from the internet. First, it was their characters’—Ilya Rozanov and Shane Hollander—chemistry and confirmed rendezvous at the cottage. Today, it’s their looks at the 2026 Met Gala.
Mirroring their on- and off-screen dynamics, their looks are in stark contrast with one another: Williams looked took an intense approach to the theme, while Storrie looked fresh. Both, however, were ready to rock-and roll.

Williams smoldered on the green carpet. “His glam and hair draws on the theme of transformation: a study in the moment when innocence fractures and elegance deepens into something darker,” says groomer Aika Flores. “It traces the evolution of the white swan shedding its softness to emerge sharper, more elusive, and entirely reborn.”
His makeup was complete with an extra-large winged eyeliner look and red and blue pigment smeared into his eyebrows. His hair, tousled and styled with the Dyson Supersonic Nural and Airstrait. “The hair is inspired by one of his favorite films, Black Swan,” Flores says. “This look went from purity to power, a quiet evolution. The look transcends a refined softness into something sculpted, controlled, and unmistakably commanding.”
