The stars are arriving on the cream carpet for fashion’s big night out. See all the highlights here.
Just one day after the lights dimmed on another edition of New York Fashion Week, and the MTV Video Music Awards took over Brooklyn’s Barclays Center, pop culture’s most famous faces have descended on the The Metropolitan Museum of Art to celebrate the fashion industry’s party of the year: the Met Gala. Typically held on the first Monday in May (it was postponed in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic), the star-studded annual fundraiser for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute heralds the opening of the museum’s banner fashion exhibition — this year, „In America: A Lexicon of Fashion. “ Opening to the public on September 18, it’s the first half of a two-part exhibition exploring how the narratives and aesthetics of American fashion have evolved since the 1940s until now, through about 100 historical and contemporary ensembles.
