What happened this year at the event

Theme & Dress Code

Exhibition theme:  It explores depictions of the dressed body across 5,000 years of art, pairing garments with artworks. Themes range from “Naked Body” and “Classical Body” to “Pregnant Body” and “Aging Body”.

Red carpet dress code: “Fashion Is Art”. Vogue said it encourages attendees to treat the body as a blank canvas. Expect avant-garde, sculptural looks — basically wearable art.

Honorary chairs: Jeff Bezos & Lauren Sánchez Bezos.

Host committee co-chairs: Anthony Vaccarello and Zoë Kravitz.

The Met Gala 2025 saw the debut of Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan. And the grand event of 2026 saw Indian celebrities like Isha Ambani, Karan Johar, Manish Malhotra, and Ananya Birla. What united them and their outfits was how they all brought Indian tradition and heritage with their looks on the red carpet.
