The Best Red-Carpet Looks At The 2026 Met Gala
Don’t miss a single moment from the most famous stairs in the world.
Happy Fashion Super Bowl to the girls and gays, aka the Met Gala. The first Monday in May is here, and with it comes the largest museum-fundraising gala in the world. The Upper East Side is gridlocked with the world’s biggest stars in the name of showing up and showing out at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s opening of “Costume Art,” which is held in a set of new galleries. The night promises to deliver on an awe-inspiring exhibit, but most of the excitement happens before guests even walk into the museum. The stairs are where stars are reimagined (think Tyla’s sand couture from 2024, or Rihanna’s yellow Guo Pei in 2015), and the names we know and love dress on theme (or not) for their moment in the sun.
The cochair committee includes Beyoncé (making her return to the event for the first time since 2016), Nicole Kidman, and Venus Williams. The host committee has some of our favorite names as well, with Zoë Kravitz and Saint Laurent’s Anthony Vaccarello cochairing alongside Sabrina Carpenter, Doja Cat, Paloma Elsesser, Chase Sui Wonders, Alex Consani, Lisa, and Yseult. The dress code is “Fashion Is Art,” which is wonderfully direct and also open to much interpretation. We hope to see some art-inspired works (Saint Laurent’s Mondrian dress comes to mind) that will leave us with our jaws on the floor. We also hope to see Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner walk the red carpet together, among other potential sightings. Without further ado, see the best looks straight from 5th Avenue below.
