Fashion’s biggest night is here, and celebrities have descended on New York for the MET Gala, the annual fundraising event at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Each year, we eagerly await what our favorite stars will wear and marvel at how creatively they interpret the event’s theme.
In past years, we’ve seen themes like “Camp: Notes on Fashion” and “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty.” This time, the theme is “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion,” highlighting the sensory experience of clothing and its fleeting nature.
The event is invitation-only and has been co-chaired by Vogue’s Editor-in-Chief, Anna Wintour, since 1995. This year’s dress code, “The Garden of Time,” references a 1962 J.G. Ballard short story.
Last year, in honor of the late Karl Lagerfeld, celebrities wowed us with tweeds, pearls, and intricate floral designs. Rihanna made a stylishly late entrance in Valentino, accompanied by A$AP Rocky in Gucci, while Jeremy Pope caught eyes with his illustrated Karl Balmain cape. The night was filled with avant-garde and unique outfits.
