The 2024 Met Gala has arrived. Each year, celebrities and fashion designers from across the globe flock to NYC’s Metropolitan Museum of Art for fashion’s biggest night out that marks the opening of the Costume Institute’s latest exhibition.
This year, the exhibition lent itself a versatile ‘The Garden of Time’ theme, featuring Zendaya, Gigi Hadid, Kendall Jenner, Lana Del Rey and several others. The extravaganza’s dress code draws inspiration from the 1962 short story of the same name by J.G. Ballard.
