An annual event that is held on the first Monday of May, which is the opening of the Costume Institute’s annual fashion exhibit hosted on the Upper East Side of Manhattan is known as the Met Gala. Many of the attendees are depicted on the covers and pages of Vogue.
Each year’s event celebrates the specific theme of that year’s Costume Institute exhibition, which sets the tone for the formal attire of the night. Guests are expected to curate their fashion to match the theme of the exhibit, which is generally haute couture. British-American journalist Anna Wintour, who is the editor-in-chief of Vogue, has chaired or co-chaired the Met Gala since 1995.
What are some of the most controversial Met Gala outfits?
Findings state that people railed against the gala for the cultural appropriation present in some of the designs of the night. Among the most criticized outfits was Sarah Jessica Parker’s Philip Treacy headdress, which was criticized for being a “dragon lady” stereotype that sexualizes and villainizes Chinese women.
