Met Gala 2024: The Best Dressed Celebrities On The Met Steps
From Zendaya to Jennifer Lopez, here's how the biggest stars tackled the dress code: 'The Garden of Time'.
It's here: fashion's biggest night. And the A-list celebs, plus their devoted stylists, have worked with the world's most celebrated designers all in aid of fashion history (and self-promotion, of course) to create the jaw-dropping red carpet looks we're feasting our eyes on right now.
Raising money for the Metropolitan Museum's 'Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion' exhibition, the annual gala on the first Monday in May has the theme of 'The Garden of Time' in reference to J.G. Ballard’s 1962 short story of the same title. Co-hosts Zendaya and Jennifer Lopez nailed the brief in Maison Margiela and Schiaparelli Haute Couture, respectively, while Ashley Graham wowed in Ludovic de Saint Sernin.
Let's see what the rest of fashion's favourites turned out in...
