Let’s be honest, this is the night we have all been waiting for and cannot get enough of. We could not think of any event more major for the fashion industry. Yes! You guessed that right, it’s the 2023 Met Gala, and we have rounded up all the delicious details to keep you fully informed and invested. The 2023 Met Gala is taking place on Monday 1st May in New York. The event has taken place on the first Monday in May every year since 2005, apart from in 2020, when the Met Gala was canceled, and in 2021, when it was held in September, as a result of the pandemic.
What is the Met Gala?
Fashion’s most exclusive social gala, The Costume Institute Gala or simply The Met Gala, is held annually at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art and is without a doubt one of the leading international fashion fundraising events. Ever since 1948, which marked the event’s inception held on the first Monday in May, the Met Gala has housed all the biggest and most famous names in fashion, art, music, sports and politics. The elite guests will converge in the New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art to celebrate the latest exhibition, raise money for the Met’s Costume Institute and deliver looks that showcase their interpretations of the theme for the year’s exhibition.
What is the 2023 Met Gala theme?
The Met Gala 2023 theme is Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty, paying tribute to the legendary designer who died in 2019. As in previous years, Costume Institute curator Andrew Bolton will be in charge of the exhibition – which he says will not be a “traditional retrospective – while Amanda Harlech, who worked closely with Lagerfeld for years, is the show’s creative consultant. Fittingly, this year’s Met Gala dress code is “in honour of Karl” – with guests able to choose from the creative director’s vast archives at Chanel, Fendi, Chloé, Balmain, Patou and his eponymous brand.
Who will host the 2023 Met Gala?
On 18 January, Vogue announced that its 2023 hosts would be Penélope Cruz, Michaela Coel, Roger Federer, Dua Lipa and Vogue’s Anna Wintour, who are serving as the night’s official co-chairs.
Who will attend the 2023 Met Gala?
Until the evening before the event, Met Gala attendees are always top secret, and this year’s event is no different. Of course, the hosts and Anna Wintour have already been confirmed, but other details are unknown to the public. But some of the biggest names in the business regularly attend.
