The Met Gala is best known for its starry red carpet, daring ensembles for both good and bad, and celebrity antics, such as the infamous elevator incident in 2014 when Solange and Jay Z fought in an elevator while Beyoncé stood by. This year’s exhibition, “Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons: Art of the In-Between,” curated by the Costume Institute’s Curator in Charge, Andrew Bolton, is the institute’s first to honor a living designer since 1983.
What are the controversies surrounding the Met Gala?
The Met Gala’s upcoming theme has also reignited conversations about the accusations of sexual assault made against Lagerfeld. “If you don’t want your pants pulled about, don’t become a model!” he once said in an interview with the fashion magazine Numéro at the height of the #MeToo movement. “Join a nunnery, there’ll always be a place for you in the convent.”
