The Met Gala, held annually at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art, is one of fashion’s most anticipated nights. This year’s theme, “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” celebrates Black fashion excellence and heritage. Organised as a fundraiser by the museum’s Costume Institute, the event helps preserve a collection spanning over seven centuries. Despite being invitation-only, all guests, including A-list celebrities, are required to purchase their seats.
