Chrissy Teigen and John Legend always make a major impression whenever they hit the red carpet together, but the couple’s lavish outfits at the Academy Museum Gala just may be our fave ever. 

The parents of four enjoyed a night out in Los Angeles on Dec. 3, and they both absolutely nailed their evening looks. Teigen opted for a stunning champagne-colored Tony Ward couture gown, which featured sculptural detail at the shoulders, an open neckline and a thigh-high slit. Her ensemble, styled by Alana Van Deraa, was accented with golden accessories, including a small clutch purse and strappy heels.

Hairstylist Rikke Gajda pulled the SI Swimsuit star’s dark locks back into an up-do to allow the intricate neckline of her dress to shine. Meanwhile, makeup artist Kristine Studden opted for a dark smokey eye, bold brows and a nude lip.

The day after the event, Teigen showed off her look alongside her partner in an Instagram carousel, which she aptly captioned “academy museum gala ✨.” We clearly were not the only ones floored by the couple’s incredibly classy outfits, as several of Teigen’s 42.8 million followers piped in to the comments section with praise.

“MOTHER & FATHER of all creation! 🔥🔥,” music exec Ty Stiklorius gushed. “I want a whole feature length film about this look.”

“Perfection ❤️❤️,” actress Garcelle Beauvais added.

“Truly a vision!” a fan applauded. “One of my favorite looks ever 👏.”

“Mom & Dad don’t hurt em with the flawlessness ❤️,” another follower quipped.
