The 2024 Met Gala was a spectacle of fashion, with celebrities making bold style statements in line with the dress code, “The Garden of Time.” This year’s Costume Institute exhibition at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, titled “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion,” showcased 250 iconic pieces from legendary designers like Dior, Givenchy, and Schiaparelli, some dating back to the 19th century.
Inspired by J.G. Ballard’s 1962 short story, “The Garden of Time,” stars embraced the theme with rich, vibrant botanical hues and avant-garde floral designs. The red carpet was filled with breathtaking gowns that resembled blooming gardens. Zendaya, this year’s Met Gala host and Vogue’s cover star, captivated in a vintage black Givenchy gown from 1996, complemented by a striking multicolored floral headpiece that added an unexpected twist.
Other celebrities also made unforgettable fashion statements. Demi Moore and Mindy Kaling opted for futuristic silhouettes, while Cardi B dazzled in layers of tulle by Windowsen. Nicki Minaj turned heads in a sculptural 3D Marni creation.
