Fashion lovers rejoiced as the 2024 Met Gala got underway. Vogue‘s annual affair celebrating the Met Museum’s Costume Institute always draws eyes from around the world as the attendees dress in theme, and this year was no different. For the 2024 Met Gala, guests were asked to dress according to the theme, “Garden of Time.” From Nicki Minaj’s look covered in flowers to Mindy Kaling’s sculptural dress by Gaurav Gupta, the red carpet was a feast for the eyes.
Bad Bunny, Zendaya, Chris Hemsworth, and Jennifer Lopez all acted as co-chairs alongside Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour. Zendaya turned heads for walking the carpet twice, each time with a different look. After first walking in a handpainted lamé and organza John Galiano for Maison Margiela gown, she reappeared wearing a dramatic floral headpiece and Givenchy archive piece. Bad Bunny led the fashion charge for the men wearing Maison Margiela, while Lopez glowed in a glittery number by Schiaparelli.
While regular Met Gala attendees like Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Kardashian, and Gigi Hadid all impressed on the carpet, many others also rose to the occasion. This year marked the debut Met Gala for Pamela Anderson and a return to the event for Demi Moore. Both cemented their iconic statuses with fashions that expressed their unique personalities.
For the occasion, Anderson strayed from the bare-faced look that she’s become known for. Instead, she allowed legendary makeup artist Pat McGrath to create a soft look that paired well with her creamy Oscar de la Renta gown and a pink and white diamond chain by Pandora. After a five-year absence, Moore made a splash in a structural gown by Harry Reed. “It all started with this incredible Cartier necklace that Demi is wearing,” the designer explained. “It was inspired by the floral feeling it gave me. The whole piece is made out of vintage archival wallpaper. We repurposed it. It’s 11,000 hours of silk embroidery that we’ve repurposed into this idea of her blooming on the carpet. I wanted to be the vines to her thorns.”
Scroll down to see even more looks from the 2024 Met Gala, which marked the opening of the exhibition Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion. The exhibition, which is on view at the Met until September 2, 2024, examines how historic fashions can be given new life through technology.
