The 2026 Met Gala now has a dress code!
It was just announced that “Fashion Is Art” will be the dress code this year in celebration of the “Costume Art” theme.
According to Vogue, “The directive perfectly reflects the ethos of ‘Costume Art,’ which explores the ‘centrality of the dressed body’ through depictions and interpretations of the human form in the Met’s extensive collection.”
Fashion’s big night will take place on May 4, marking Beyoncé’s return to the gala after a 10-year hiatus!
