Met Gala Spring 2024 Exhibition

Embark on a whimsical journey as The Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute presents its dazzling spectacle for Spring 2024: "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion" Get ready to witness the ultimate collision of nap time vibes and red carpet glamour with the 2024 Met Gala theme, "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion."

Today, the Costume Institute revealed its plans to turn dormant dresses (no, not people!) and forgotten, fragile garments into the stars of the show. Picture this: over 400 years of fashion history coming to life, featuring everything from contemporary designs by the likes of Phillip Lim, Stella McCartney, and Conner Ives, to throwback treasures from fashion legends such as Elsa Schiaparelli, Yves Saint Laurent, Christian Dior, Hubert de Givenchy, and more. It's like a time-traveling fashion extravaganza! Vogue

But here's the kicker - around 50 pieces too delicate to dance on the runway again (cue the applause from Kim Kardashian) will be strutting their stuff in the limelight. Think Elizabethan bodices and a silk ball gown from 1877 by the legendary Charles Frederick Worth. Get ready to be transported through the ages with each delicate stitch and sequin!

And that's not all! "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion" is brought to you by the trendiest sponsors in town: TikTok leads the way, joined by the fabulous support of Loewe and the style mavens at Condé Nast, the powerhouses behind Vogue. It's a collaboration that screams, "Let's have fun with fashion!"

Mark your calendars because from May 10 to September 2, 2024, the exhibit will open its doors, ready to party with the public after the May 6 Met Gala. And guess what? Your ticket doesn't just get you a front-row seat to fashion history; it's also your golden pass to support The Costume Institute's creative endeavors. It's not just an exhibition; it's a fashion fiesta you won't want to miss!
