2026 Met Gala looks we cant stop obsessing over
Share
Originality was front and center at the 2026 Met Gala on Monday. Everyone's eyes were on the carpet, hoping to get a glimpse at the stars donning literal “works of art.”
The theme this year was Costume Art, and it asked attendees to embody pieces and media from throughout history, with the dress code: “Fashion is Art.” The concept was notably broader than in previous years and left much for interpretation for those walking the carpet.
The viewer saw everything from statuesque silhouettes and beaded fringe to flowy feathers and drapes of powerful color.
Fashion’s biggest night was hosted by co-chairs Beyoncé, Nicole Kidman, Venus Williams, and Anna Wintour. The gala also featured names like Zoë Kravitz, Sabrina Carpenter, Sam Smith, Angela Bassett, LISA, and Doja Cat among others.
The occasion is hosted each year on the first Monday in May in an effort to raise money for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute.
