New York — Jennifer Lopez, Bad BunnyChris Hemsworth and Zendaya joined Vogue’s Anna Wintour as co-chairs of this year’s Met Gala, the magazine and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York revealed on Thursday.
What will the dress code be? The organizers chose “The Garden of Time”, or “The Garden of Time“, a theme used by celebrities to inspire them to plan their dresses and walk up the steps of the museum on the first Monday in May as part of the attractive charity event.
The dress code is tied to the theme of this year’s May 6 gala, which is in line with the spring show at the Met Costume Institute. This year’s theme is “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.” The reference is not to the fairy tale, however, but to the precious clothes in the Costume Institute’s vast collection, some of which are too fragile to hang upright. Museum curators will place them in display cases, like Sleeping Beauty herself.
Curator Andrew Bolton, the mastermind behind the Met’s successful fashion shows, said at a preview in November that he was looking for a way to bring to life a collection of 33,000 pieces, many of which are not ever seen. He chose about 250 of them and will organize the exhibition around the themes of land, sea and sky.
The gala serves as a fundraiser for the Costume Institute and provides the majority of its annual budget. To date, the event has raised more than $223.5 million, according to the Met.
The carpet is one of the biggest pop culture shows of the year with stars like Lady Gaga, Kim Kardashian, Billy Porter and Rihanna in outfits that fit the night’s theme.
This is Bad Bunny’s third year at the gala and Hemsworth’s first. López has been on the guest list 13 times and Zendaya five.
The honorary chairs are Loewe creative director Jonathan Anderson and TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew. TikTok is a sponsor of the gala, supported by Loewe.
The exhibition will be open from May 10 to September 2, 2024.
