The Met Gala, an annual event known for its extravagance and celebrity-filled guest list, has revealed its star-studded lineup of co-hosts for this year’s highly-anticipated extravaganza. Joining forces with Vogue’s Anna Wintour are none other than Bad Bunny, Jennifer Lopez, Zendaya, and Chris Hemsworth, promising a night full of glitz, glamour, and jaw-dropping fashion moments on May 6.
Known as the fashion event of the year, the Met Gala not only serves as a platform for A-list celebrities to showcase their most creative and daring looks but also marks the grand opening of the Met’s Costume Institute exhibit. This year’s theme, “The Garden of Time,” draws inspiration from J.G. Ballard’s iconic short story and explores the fleeting nature of beauty, perfectly aligning with the exhibit entitled “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.”
From May 10 to September 2, the public will have the chance to experience the exhibit firsthand, with proceeds from the gala supporting the Costume Institute’s ongoing work in curating exhibitions and acquiring new pieces for its collection. What started as an intimate gathering for New York’s elite in 1948 has transformed over the years into a global fashion phenomenon under Anna Wintour’s leadership, attracting the biggest names in entertainment and fashion.
Sponsored by TikTok, the Met Gala and its associated exhibition have become a social media sensation, captivating audiences around the world as they countdown to the event. Fashion enthusiasts eagerly anticipate witnessing how the co-hosts and attendees will interpret the theme, creating unforgettable and iconic red carpet moments that will be remembered for years to come.
