The most anticipated fashion festival, Met Gala 2024, took place on May 6, 2024. The event was held at the New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute, unfolding the exhibit theme "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion."
The biggest celebration of fashion presented 250 items from the costume institute's permanent collection. The celebrities adorned themselves with the dress code—The Garden of Time—taking inspiration from J.G. Ballard's dystopian short stories that suggest the Garden as the metaphor for human creation.
