The
fashion
extravaganza
is
in
full
bloom
once
again.
On
May
6,
the
2024
Met
Gala will
bring
a
fashion
fantasy
to
the
famous
steps
at
The
Metropolitan
Museum
of
Art
in
New
York
City.
After
all,
the
star-studded
event—hosted
by Anna
Wintour and
cochairs Bad
Bunny, Zendaya, Jennifer
Lopez and Chris
Hemsworth—celebrates
the
Costume
Institute’s
new
exhibition: “Sleeping
Beauties:
Reawakening
Fashion.”
But
this
won’t
be
a
reimagining
of
a
classic
fairytale considering
the dress
code
is “The
Garden
of
Time.”
As
Andrew
Bolton,
the
head
curator
of
the
Metropolitan
Museum
of
Art,
told Vogue, “It
is
very
much
an
ode
to
nature
and
the
emotional
poetics
of
fashion.”
That
means,
bouquets
of
florals and
botanical
looks—or
designs
beyond
our
wildest
dreams—will
likely
spring
up
on
the
red
carpet.
“This
innovative
show
will
push
the
boundaries
of
our
imagination,”
museum
CEO Max
Hollein said
in
November,
per Vogue. “And
invite
us
to
experience
many
facets
of
a
work,
to
learn
more
about
its
history,
and,
ultimately,
to
gain
a
deeper
appreciation
of
its
beauty.”
