Isha Ambani in Gaurav Gupta

Sabine Getty in Ashi Studio
Life imitated art in Getty’s look (a bejeweled finger on her dress was mimicked by the real thing).

HSN Venus Williams in Swarovski
Williams’s dazzling Swarovski look included a neckplate she custom-designed with symbols to represent her life, like LA’s Watts Tower—a wink at her Californian roots.

Jon Batiste in ERL
In his all-white look (referencing Grecian goddess dresses), Batiste opted for puff, not pleats.

Zoë Kravitz in Yves Saint Laurent
We were all excited to see her brand new rock (the Jessica Jessica McCormack engagement ring just given to her by Harry Styles), but this sculptural lace dress was just as thrilling!

Lauren Sánchez Bezos in Schiaparelli
In her Schiaparelli, Sánchez Bezos channeled the scandal of John Singer Sargent’s Madame X—slipped strap and all.

Nicole Kidman in Chanel
It took 800 hours of hand-craft to bead this Chanel dress with ruby-hued sequins and feathers. A strong start for Chanel by Matthieu Blazy’s Met Gala debut.

Cara Delevingne in Ralph Lauren
Delevingne Ralph Lauren look referenced…Ralph Lauren. Specifically, the dress Rooney Mara wore on her November 2011 Vogue cover.

Ashley Graham in Di Petsa
No zipper, no problem! Graham was sewn into her Met Gala look by hand by Di Pesta, who is also heavily featured in the exhibition.

Emma Chamberlain in Mugler
This Mugler by Miguel Castro Freitas look was hand-painted (talk about Fashion Is Art!) and inspired by archival Mugler looks, including a butterfly dress from 1997.

The 2026 Met Gala theme is “Costume Art,” which explores the intersection of fashion and fine art, focusing on the “dressed body” throughout art history. The corresponding dress code is “Fashion Is Art,” encouraging guests to interpret garments as embodied art forms.

Dress Code: “Fashion Is Art”.
Date: Monday, May 4, 2026.
Co-Chairs: The 2026 event is co-chaired by Beyoncé, Nicole Kidman, Venus Williams, and Anna Wintour.
Significance: The exhibit, organized by Andrew Bolton, features thematic body types across Western art history, from the “pregnant body” to the “naked and nude body”.
