The first Monday in May is officially upon us. The carpet has been rolled out on the famed Metropolitan Museum of Art steps. A small army of fashion and beauty professionals have descended on the Upper East Side to dress some of the world’s biggest stars. It’s fashion’s biggest night: the 2024 Met Gala. This year, the theme is “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion,” but you won’t see princess-adjacent ball gowns and evil witches on the red carpet. The phrase applies to historic dresses too old to be worn, which the exhibition will bring back to life with the help of technology. On the red carpet, meanwhile, the dress code is “The Garden of Time,” based on a 1962 short story of the same title written by J.G. Ballard, so expect vines and flowers to creep their way onto the fashion of the evening.
But just as exciting as the clothes is the guest list itself. We already know co-hosts Bad Bunny, Chris Hemsworth, Jennifer Lopez, and Zendaya will be in attendance, which is especially exciting as the latter hasn’t attended the event since 2019. In addition, Rihanna has confirmed she will be there and she told Extra she’s “keeping it real simple this year,” though when it comes to the singer, one never knows what to expect. In addition, it seems like a given that Met Gala regulars like the Kardashians and Gigi Hadid will be in attendance, along with a host of other models, singers, and actors. Keep track of the guests below, and don’t miss one unforgettable look from the 2024 Met Gala.
