The night is young (as in the red carpet started 31 minutes ago as I write this), but we may *already* have a contender for the night’s best accessory: Jaden Smith’s dreads, worn as... a... clutch?

Twitter agrees.
I think Jaden Smith carrying his cut-off hair in his hands as an accessory wins the avant-garde prize of the #metgala night so far.— Vanessa Friedman (@Vanessa Friedman) 1493680172.0
Hi to Jaden Smith who turned dried fronds into an accessory. I'm very confused which is very on theme. #metgala2017 https://t.co/KPnJypvOUV— Connie Wang (@Connie Wang) 1493679862.0
Of course Jaden Smith brought his dreads as his date to the #MetGala. https://t.co/cQvRM7jtSk— Complex (@Complex) 1493680297.0
See?
And thanks to a little Cov sleuthing, we realized what may actually be the most incredible part of the whole thing: Jaden cut off his dreads a month ago.
Remember this?
The takeaway: Jaden Smith is *all of us* after a bad haircut. Or any haircut, really.
