The Met Gala, known as ‘Fashion’s Biggest Night,’ is set to make a grand return on May 6 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. This year’s theme, ‘Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion,’ promises to revive unique garments from various centuries, offering a fresh perspective to fashion enthusiasts.
The gala will celebrate the Costume Institute’s new exhibition, also titled ‘Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion,’ while the official dress theme for attendees is ‘The Garden of Time.’ Unlike previous themes, this year’s focus will be on delicate pieces of fashion that are often considered too fragile for wear, affectionately termed the ‘sleeping beauties.’
The exhibition will showcase significant pieces spanning over 400 years of fashion history, featuring iconic designers such as Elsa Schiaparelli, Christian Dior, Yves Saint Laurent, and Hubert de Givenchy. To add to the glamour of the evening, Zendaya, Jennifer Lopez, Chris Hemsworth, and Bad Bunny will serve as the night’s co-chairs.
Fashion enthusiasts and celebrities alike are eagerly anticipating the event, which is sure to be a showcase of creativity, style, and elegance. Stay tuned for the most iconic looks and memorable moments from the 2024 Met Gala, where the stars will shine bright on the red carpet.
