5 May
Summary

- Seating arrangements meticulously curated for guest connections.
- The event's theme featured Northern Italian garden-inspired decor and cuisine.
The exclusive Met Gala, held at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, provided a peek inside its high-profile event, where guests traditionally adhere to a no-phone policy. This year, Grammy winner Sabrina Carpenter entertained attendees with a performance, including "Landslide" with Stevie Nicks, near the Temple of Dendur. Attendees also had the chance to view the "Costume Art" exhibition before its public debut.
Careful consideration was given to seating arrangements, with Vogue's director of special events aiming to pair guests with immediate connections. The museum's interior, adorned with decor inspired by Northern Italian gardens, complemented the themed catered dinner. The menu featured dishes like burrata, rack of lamb, and Parmesan gnocchi, reflecting the garden concept.
Beyoncé, Nicole Kidman, Venus Williams, and Anna Wintour served as co-chairs for the 2026 event, themed "Fashion Is Art." The exhibition explored the relationship between clothing and the human body, drawing from the museum's extensive collection.
