The first Monday in May saw the Met Gala return to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, once again bringing together high fashion and fundraising spectacle. This year’s dress code, ‘Fashion is Art’, encouraged guests to lean into creative interpretation, turning the red carpet into a space where clothing doubled as artistic expression. The night played out like a living gallery of wearable art, with bold colour blocking, hand-painted details, and sculptural couture silhouettes taking centre stage, and designers such as Brandon Blackwood among those adding to the conversation-starting looks.
