The Met Gala 2021: All the looks from the red carpet
After a one-year hiatus thanks to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Met Gala is finally here for 2021. While the event is normally held on the first Monday of May, this year we'll settle for the second Monday of September!
Known as one of the most important nights for fashion, the event, which is held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, raises funds for the exhibit which is curated by the Costume Institute.
This year's theme is In America: An Anthology of Fashion and will be hosted by co-chairs Timothée Chalamet, Billie Eilish, Amanda Gorman, and Naomi Osaka, and honorary chairs Tom Ford, Adam Mosseri, and Anna Wintour.
