A few moments back, fashion critic, Diet Sabya took to their stories and re-shared the Met Gala 2024’s theme-announcement clip, where he offered some interesting insights into what type of fashion picks can be expected for the fashion exhibit segment. Well, the concept of ‘Sleeping Beauties’ would specifically reflect those outfits which are so fragile, that they can only be worn once. However, apart from the exhibits, the celebrities gracing the red carpet will have to follow the dress code of the ‘Garden Of Time’, that would include outfits ranging from florals, archival designs, vintage, and garden-themed mood board.
Last year, the Met Gala 2023’s theme paid a tribute to late maestro of fashion, Karl Lagerfeld, whose creations over the decades were immortalized through the exhibits of the event. Moreover, several celebrities from across the globe kept in sync with the dress code and made their stunning appearances. For instance, Alia Bhatt made her Met Gala debut last year, and it was dreamy outfit that caught everyone’s attention. Crafted by the eminent designer, Prabal Gurung, Alia’s pearl-adorned gown paid tribute to Lagerfeld’s classic Chanel gowns. The outfit was made of a 100,000 pearls, all hand-made and woven in India.
