Ashley Graham stole the spotlight at the 2024 Met Gala, dazzling in a black sequin gown with floral accents that set her apart as she graced the red carpet in style. The model’s striking bangs and dramatic look made a statement as she made her way to the iconic steps of the event held in New York City.
This year, the Met Gala’s theme is Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion, with a dress code centered around The Garden of Time. The star-studded event saw Jennifer Lopez, Zendaya, Bad Bunny, and Chris Hemsworth as co-chairs, alongside Vogue’s Anna Wintour. The honorary chairs for the evening are Loewe creative director Jonathan Anderson and TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew.
The exhibition, featuring around 250 pieces from The Costume Institute’s collection, showcases themes of land, sea, and sky while emphasizing nature and the emotional aspects of fashion. The pieces will be displayed using cutting-edge technology like AI and GCI.
Celebrities like the Kardashians, Blake Lively, Hailey Bieber, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Timothee Chalamet are expected to attend, with Gwendoline Christie, La La Anthony, and Ashley Graham hosting the event. YouTuber Emma Chamberlain will be interviewing stars on the red carpet.
Last year’s gala paid tribute to the late designer Karl Lagerfeld, embodying the essence of elegance and creativity that continues to define the fashion world. The 2024 Met Gala promises to be a captivating experience, celebrating the artistry and innovation that shape the industry’s landscape.
The event serves as a platform for pushing boundaries, honoring fashion icons, and inspiring future generations to embrace the transformative power of style and design.
