Michaela Coel, Penélope Cruz, Roger Federer, Dua Lipa, and Vogue's Anna Wintour will be the official co-chairs of Met Gala 2023.
Met Gala is a highly famous fundraising event for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute. This starry event also marks the opening of its annual fashion exhibition. Each year, the biggest celebrities in the industry attend the event in mind-blowing ensembles which is in accordance with the theme. While each year's theme is announced way early before the event's date, its guest list is kept secret until the night of the event when the stars arrive on the red carpet.
Met Gala 2023 is just a few days away. The grandiose event is all set to take place on May 1, 2023, in New York. While the guest list is still not officially revealed, rumors claim that the Kardashians have not been invited this time for the Met Gala, while Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt will be making her first-ever Met Gala appearance while donning designer Prabal Gurung's creation.
What is the theme for Met Gala 2023?
‘Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty’ is the theme of Met Gala 2023. This year's theme is a direct homage to fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld, who passed away in 2019. For the unversed, Lagerfeld was one of the top fashion designers Hollywood had ever come across. He headed several luxury fashion houses, including Chanel, Balmain, Fendi, Chloe, and his own eponymous brand.
This year's theme is quite special and it would be interesting to see how the guests would honor the designer by choosing from his vast archives of elite designs.
