Met Gala 2024
The Met Gala is a fashion event in New York City that happens every year to raise money for the Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. It's famous for being a big deal in the fashion world, and getting invited is really special. Celebrities from different areas like fashion, movies, music, and more get invited to the Met Gala by Vogue magazine because they're seen as important in today's world.
The Gala happens every year on the first Monday of May. The entry price for one ticket has risen to US$75,000 in 2024, an increase from $50,000 in 2023, to attend the annual gala in one of the world's principal financial centers, New York City. Each year, the Gala celebrates a specific theme based on that year's Costume Institute exhibition. This theme guides what people wear to the event.
Met Gala 2024 Theme
The 2024 Met Gala is celebrating the Costume Institute's new exhibition, "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion," with the official dress code being "The Garden of Time." The exhibit is showcasing around 250 rare items from the Costume Institute's permanent collection. It spans over 400 years of fashion history and includes designs by Schiaparelli, Dior, Givenchy, and more. Some garments, like a Charles Frederick Worth ball gown from 1877, are too fragile to wear again and are being displayed through video animation, light projection, AI, CGI, and other sensory stimulation methods.
Met Gala 2024 Host
Zendaya, Jennifer Lopez, Bad Bunny, and Chris Hemsworth hosted the 2024 Met Gala. They took over from last year's hosts: Penélope Cruz, Michaela Coel, Roger Federer, Dua Lipa, and Vogue's Anna Wintour. Anna Wintour has been in charge of the Met Gala since 1995, making it the popular fashion event it is today.
Actor Gwendoline Christie, producer and actor La La Anthony, and model Ashley Graham are co-hosting. Emma Chamberlain is also at the event as Vogue's special correspondent. She is interviewing some of the biggest stars at the gala.
Met Gala 2024 Dress Code
The dress code for this year's 2024 Met Gala is "The Garden of Time." It's inspired by J.G. Ballard's short story from 1962 with the same title, so there are many ways to interpret it. We're probably going to see a lot of floral and botanical looks on the famous Met Gala red carpet.
