For fashionistas and fashion-forward fellows, “fashion’s biggest night out” – better known as the Met Gala – is easily the most wonderful time of year.
A designer costume party that doubles as a fundraising event for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute in New York City, the outing – which typically occurs the first Monday in May – is an annual assembly of Hollywood’s “who’s who” to show off some truly outrageous and over-the-top ensembles courtesy of top named and well-respected designers.
This year’s event was helmed by 2024 co-chairs Jennifer Lopez, Zendaya, Bad Bunny, and Chris Hemsworth (TikTok CEO Shou Chew and creative director of Loewe Jonathan Anderson served as honorary chairs).
Hop inside to see how big names like Lil Nas X, Nicki Minaj, Ariana Grande, Cardi B, Doja Cat, Tyla, Dua Lipa, Lizzo, Kerry Washington, and more delivered their take on the night’s theme: ‘The Garden of Time’ (inspired by a 1962 short story written by J.G. Ballard in celebration of the opening of the Costume Institute’s ‘Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion’ spring exhibit).
