The annual fundraising gala was held on the first Monday in
May in New York City this year, as is tradition. This is the first time it has
been held on its regularly scheduled date after nearly two years of a pandemic
hiatus.
This year's theme was "In America: An Anthology of
Fashion," the second installment of a two-part series paying homage to
American stylists and designers. The approximately 400 celebrities and
personalities in attendance were asked to abide by the "gilded
glamour" dress code.
Most recognizable attendees included Elon Musk, Hillary Clinton, the Kardashian-Jenner family and Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively, who
served as hosting co-chairs.
The first installment of the Met Gala — "In America: A
Lexicon of Fashion" — was held in September 2021. The galas brought in
approximately $33.7 million, according to the museum. Funds go toward
supporting the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute.
Exhibits from both galas are set to open May 7 to the
public.
