20 of the brightest star looks from the Met Gala 2024 that caught the eyes of the whole world (21 photos)

For more than 60 years, the event has been held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. According to tradition, the Met Gala 2024 is dedicated to a new exhibition of the Costume Institute. The theme of this year's event is "Sleeping Beauties: The Awakening of Fashion" and the dress code theme is "The Garden of Time."





This year the exhibition is built around three zones - Earth, Sea and Sky. So the organizers decided to pay tribute to the nature of our planet. We have collected the most striking images of celebrities who attended the ball this year.

Singer Lana Del Rey



Actor Dan Levy





Netizens joked that Levi's suit did not load completely.

Actress Gwendoline Christie



Actress Sydney Sweeney



Actress Zendaya



Zendaya tried on two looks at once. In the midst of the ball, the actress changed her Dior SS’99 dress to an archival outfit from 1996 from Givenchy, adding a McQueen hat from the 2007 collection.

Singer and actress Jennifer Lopez



Actress Taylor Russell



Fashion designer Harris Reed



Model Emma Chamberlain



Fashion model Anok Yai



Anok Yai's outfit is made of Swarovski crystals. Naturally, the image attracted a lot of attention, despite the fact that it does not fit well with the theme of the event.

Journalist and editor-in-chief of Vouge magazine Anna Wintour



This year's ball was hosted by Zendaya, Jennifer Lawrence, Chris Hemsworth and Bad Bunny. Recall that a year earlier, the Met Gala 2023 was hosted by Penelope Cruz, Michaela Coel, Roger Federer and Dua Lipa. Anna Wintour was also present at both events as a presenter. Since 1995, not a single charity ball of the Costume Institute has been held without her. To its credit, without Anna the Met Gala would hardly have become such a popular event.

Actress Demi Moore



Rapper and co-chair of the Bad Bunny Ball



Singer Shakira



Actress Mindy Kaling



One of the most successful looks of the event, according to fashion critics, was worn by Mindy Kaling. Her dress was eye-catching even despite its discreet cocoa shade.

Actor Adrien Brody



Actress Sarah Jessica Parker



“The triumph of clothes so fragile that they can no longer be tried on” - this is how Vogue magazine experts described the theme of the ball. Some of the garments on display are so rare and exquisite that they will literally never be worn by anyone again. Among them, for example, is Charles Frederick Worth's 1877 ballgown. Similar outfits were demonstrated through video animation.

Actress, director and producer Greta Gerwig



Met Gala viewers expected to see the creator of one of the most sensational films of last year, “Barbie,” in a brighter image. However, Gretta knows how to surprise not only with the films she creates.

Actress Uma Thurman



Singer Doja Cat



Dodge can't help but be shocked. This year she attended the event in a wet white T-shirt dress. Despite the contradictory nature of the image, the performer looked completely at ease in it.

One of the most talked about outfits was the image of singer Rihanna. Just one post with her collected more than 5 million views and 18 thousand reposts on X.

But there's a catch: Rihanna wasn't at the Met Gala. The viral photo was generated using neural networks.
