event 2024 Met Gala

[Almodusa]

The theme for the 2024 Met Gala has been revealed. The event will be on Monday, May 6th.

 

Zendaya, Bad Bunny, Jennifer Lopez & Chris Hemsworth will be the co-chairs.

Speaking in advance of this morning's announcement, Andrew Bolton, Wendy Yu Curator in Charge of The Costume Institute, said: "Fashion is one of the most emotional artistic forms because of its connection to the body. It is imbued with memory and emotions, and we relate to it very much via our senses. One thing I hope this show will activate is that sensorial appreciation of fashion."

Bolton explained that the exhibition will be structured around approximately 50 historically significant and aesthetically beautiful pieces from the collection that are far too fragile ever to be worn again. "These are the 'Sleeping Beauties' of the title," he said. Instead of fulfilling their original worn function, these pieces – including that Elizabethan bodice and a silk satin ballgown by the American couturier Charles Frederick Worth from 1877 that was the show's original inspiration – will instead be transformed through display.

This is reallly really boring. I feel like venturing into really old museum only garments as the inspo is somewhat similar to the gilded age we had for two years. It’s not fresh at all

Please be more than a bunch of very old garments that aren't that interesting.  The idea of fragility is great but being fragile because of age is not something anyone is going to care about.  The garments need to have incredibly intricate construction and applications.

I just know people are gonna completely misinterpret the theme and show up in pajamas/serving fairytale/Sleeping Beauty. Please get original & creative this time or just don't show up.

Thank you for explaining the ******* obvious to me. I just think after 3 years of focusing on the past as inspiration we could’ve had something more forward thinking. Open up your mind, hun
