Curiosity around how guests would interpret this year’s “Garden of Time” theme was quickly answered with a flurry of florals, vintage, leather, fascinators and classic tuxedoes at this year’s Met Gala, fashion’s biggest night held on the first Monday in May.
Celebrities, executives, musicians, politicians and more showed off every angle of every look for photographers and fans. Guests sashayed down an off-white carpet dotted with teal borders and posed in front of backdrops of vegetation and flora, creating an ethereal quality to the evening’s festivitiee.The “Midsummer Night’s Dream” vibe was countered by the dramatic flair of celebrities like Colman Domingo and co-chair Bad Bunny, and it wouldn’t be a Met Ball without the trains (on Alton Mason, Lea Michele, to name a few).
