It’s one of the biggest nights in fashion – The Met Gala. Rihanna, Beyonce, Jay Z, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West along with a slew of other celebs have come out for the event.
For those who’ve heard of it, but have never known what the big deal is, the Gala is an annual fundraising event for the benefit of the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute.
Anna Wintour, Vogue editor-in-chief and chair of the event since 1995, oversees both the benefit committee and the guest list, with Vogue staffers helping assemble the list of invitees. This year the ticket costs $25,000 for each guest.
The affair, attended by celebs of fashion, music and film, has been held at the Met since 1971 and is considered to be the fashion industry’s premier annual red carpet event.
