Celebrities have started arriving on the red carpet at the 2024 Met Gala, stepping out in striking looks as they take on their own interpretation to this year's mystical "Garden of Time" theme.
During one of the biggest nights in fashion, famous faces from across the entertainment industry showed up in their most glamorous looks taking their own spin on the nature-inspired dress code. The unique dress code is inspired by a 1962 short story of the same name, written by J.G. Ballard. Others also drew inspiration from this year's theme which was "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion" which is also the title of the Costume Institute’s new exhibition.
