I don’t know about you but I look forward to the first Monday of every May because of The Met Gala!! I love looking at all of the amazing outfits that everyone wears.
First things first… What is The Met Gala?
“The Met Gala, formally called the Costume Institute Gala and also known as the Met Ball, is an annual fundraising gala for the benefit of the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute in New York City. It marks the opening of the Costume Institute’s annual fashion exhibit.”
It is invite only and very exclusive. Even when invited tickets are still $30,000 a piece or $275,000 for a table. It is considered fashion’s biggest night of the year. Every year there is a theme that attendees are encouraged to adhere to with their attire(this year’s theme is Camp). I love when people follow the theme and really get into it! It is the one night of the year when you can dress absolutely crazy/outrageous and nobody bats an eyelash! Go big or go home! You can wear a safe, boring, glamorous dress to the Oscars or any other awards show. Don’t be boring/safe with your fashion at The Met Gala!!!!
Here are some of my favorite “theme” looks from this year:
Lady Gaga (Met Gala co-chair)
She showed up in the outfit on the far left first and each outfit was already on underneath. Since she’s a co-chair this year, she definitely had every right to make a grand entrance!
Ashley Graham
Gucci dream babe!
Serena Williams (Met Gala co-chair)
Her shoes made me love this outfit even more!
Kacey Musgraves(Met Gala debut)
Kacey is giving me Barbie babe dream vibes!
Cardi B
This is Cardi’s 2nd Met Gala and I love that she goes above and beyond for the theme!
Lupita Nyong’o
I will update this post as I see more pictures of entrances!
