    Held on the first Monday in May at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Met Gala’s main aim is to raise funds for the Costume Institute, the museum’s collection of fashion items. 

    Furthermore, the gala marks the start of the Costume Institute’s annual fashion exhibition, which is based on the theme that celebrities have to follow that evening.

    The glitzy event was established in 1948 and has been hosted by Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour since 1995.

    Anna oversees both the benefit committee and the guest list.


    The event is “kept largely under wraps,” Vogue explains, and guests are not allowed to use their phones once they’ve entered the museum, so little is known about what unfolds during the actual ceremony.

    The cost of a seat per guest is reportedly $75,000. However, celebrities do not pay for their Met Gala tickets, as fashion companies pay for them to attend.

    The New York Times reports that stars are “invited by brands (or by brands on the instruction of Vogue), who buy their seats at the table, in addition to custom-making their looks, flying them in and putting them up.”

    As a visual editor in the News team, I look for the most interesting pictures and comments to make each post interesting and informative through images, so that you aren't reading only blocks of text. I joined Bored Panda not that long ago, but in this short amount of time I have covered a wide range of topics: from true crime to Taylor Swift memes (my search history is very questionable because of that).In my freetime, I enjoy spending time at the gym, gaming, binging Great British Bake Off and adding yet another tattoo artist that I would love to get a tattoo from to my pinterest board.
