The world’s famous charity fundraiser is back! MET Gala – the ultimate fashion extravaganza and the annual bash thrown by the Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art – is a total treat for designers and fashion connoisseurs alike.

Met Gala 2024 was nothing short of spectacular! Every year, best-dressed celebrities, socialites, athletes, and philanthropists make their grand appearance, gliding up the museum’s famous staircase in their implausible designer getups. The Garden of Time, the theme of the 2024 fundraiser, was inspired by a captivating 1962 short story by English writer J.G. Ballard, which unleashed an explosion of creativity. Every piece symbolised the fleeting nature of time – from dark and moody florals to captivating masterpieces, the red carpet sparkled with pure imagination.

As we eagerly anticipate this year’s MET Gala, get ready for a fabulous trip down memory lane! Here’s a curated and enchanting list of all the countless stunning looks that truly stole the spotlight.
