The highly anticipated 2023 Met Gala, one of the most important events in the fashion calendar, will be held on May 1st at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The theme of this year’s Met Gala is “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty” in honor of the late designer who passed away in 2019. The exhibition will explore the 65-year career of the iconic German designer, showcasing approximately 150 of his pieces.
The Met Gala is known for its high-profile guests from various industries, who always bring their most creative and elaborate looks to the red carpet. The guest list is generally kept a secret until the day of the event, but this year’s co-chairs are Penélope Cruz, Michaela Coel, Roger Federer, Dua Lipa, and Vogue’s editor-in-chief Anna Wintour.
The Met Gala serves as a fundraiser for the Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, with proceeds supporting the museum’s exhibitions, publications, acquisitions, operations, and capital improvements. This year’s livestream hosts will include La La Anthony, Chloe Fineman, and Derek Blasberg, with livestreams available on Vogue’s website starting at 6:30 p.m. ET.
From our partners:
The dress code for the 2023 Met Gala is “in honor of Karl,” which is fitting considering Lagerfeld’s storied career as the creative director of luxury French fashion house Chanel from 1983 until his death. Lagerfeld’s influence on fashion and pop culture is immense, and the exhibition will explore the recurring themes in his work and his complex working methodology. The exhibition will conclude with the “satirical line,” which reflects the designer’s whimsical and playful side.
The Met Gala is a highlight of the fashion calendar, attracting some of the biggest names in entertainment and fashion, all dressed in their most creative and striking looks. This year’s Met Gala promises to be another unforgettable event, paying tribute to one of the most influential designers of our time.
