The 2026 Met Gala, held on May 4 at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, was a spectacle of fashion under the new leadership of Vogue editor Chloe Malle. The theme, 'Costume Art,' invited attendees to explore the relationship between clothing and the body. Beyoncé, making her highly anticipated return after a decade, dazzled in a rhinestone gown resembling a skeleton, while Chase Infiniti stole the spotlight with a floor-length gown made from over 1.5 million sequins, inspired by the Venus de Milo. On the other hand, Troye Sivan's choice of ripped jeans and a fur coat was deemed mismatched, alongside Madonna's elaborate hat resembling a ship mast and Kylie Jenner's bold corset look. Notably, Jordan Roth's gown, featuring a mannequin, earned him the Miranda Priestly 'GroundBreaking' Award for its artistic flair. The event highlighted both the creativity and the occasional missteps of celebrity fashion.
