When is the Met Gala 2022? 

The 2022 Met Gala will take place tonight, Monday 2 May in New York City. It celebrates the second volume in a two-part Costume Institute exhibition. The first, In America: A Lexicon of Fashion, opened on September 18, and was preceded by the 2021 Met Gala on September 13. Follow along with all of the action on the red carpet tonight with live updates from inside the Met Gala.

 

 

What is the Met Gala 2022 theme?

The theme for part two is In America: An Anthology of Fashion, and the exhibition will see Andrew Bolton, head curator of the Museum of Modern Art’s Costume Institute, focus on inclusivity in fashion. “Who gets to be American?” was a question posed at Prabal Gurung’s spring/summer 2020 show, and it will be addressed at the Met Gala 2022, as well.

 

As for the exhibition, presented across 13 of the American period rooms in the museum, it “provides a historical context for Lexicon, in a way,” Bolton told Vogue. “The stories really reflect the evolution of American style, but they also explore the work of individual tailors, dress-makers, and designers,” he says. “What’s exciting for me is that some of the names will be very familiar to students of fashion, like Charles James, Halston, and Oscar de la Renta, but a lot of the other names really have been forgotten, overlooked or relegated into the footnotes of fashion history. So one of the main intentions of the exhibition is to spotlight the talents and contributions of these individuals, and many of them are women.”

When Taylord STUNS as a surprise attendee (she's basically in a throuple with Blake/Ryan) and steals the show

 

Any chance Rihanna attends? She's traveled lately so due date is probably still at least a month away 

deuxmois says that Cardi will go.

 

I hope it's true cause she'd easily steal the night

why does it feel like no one's attending this year  

I hate when we dont know who to expect.......

She has stayed in LA for like 2 weeks now so I doubt it

No Rihanna, No MET Gala.

Imagine if Rihanna went and her water broke on the red carpet. Instantly iconic

only one of my faves is attending, which is great still but I had hoped to see the three there

Eiza Gonzalez said on her Instagram stories that she’s attending, I’m pretty sure.

Gwen looks to be going.

Apparently Kim is wearing the Marilyn Monroe "Happy Birthday" original dress but with a cape or something behind it because she couldn't get it tailored.
