The first Monday of May is akin to a holiday for those invested in fashion and the world of celebrity. The celebration in question — The Met Gala. Hosted at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, and aimed at raising funds for the historic entity, the event brings together designers and and their notable muses for the most glamorous and anticipated red carpet collaborations of the year. Founded in 1946 with its first official soirée in 1948, the Met Gala has been territory of Anna Wintour, Condé Nast’s artistic director, and Vogue’s Editor-In-Chief for 29 years, and was this year co-chaired by Zendaya, Jennifer Lopez, Bad Bunny, and Chris Hemsworth.

Ombréd, teal green steps were revealed to pull together the evening’s theme, “The Garden of Time” (meant to complement the museum’s Spring exhibition, “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion”), and naturally, many celebrities took to the red carpet wearing special looks. Making the grandest of arrivals, a number of actors, models and musicians alike wore custom looks (some hand-in-hand with the designer’s responsible for the creation), while others, á la Kendall Jenner who donned a Givenchy by Alexander McQueen number “never before worn by a human,” opted to pull from the archives. In keeping with the theme, many looks featured natural elements such as florals and foliage, while others leaned into futuristic aesthetics featuring metallics and foiled textures. Ahead, here are some of the best looks of the night.
