Met Gala 2026: Stars Sculpt “Fashion Is Art” on the Red Carpet
The 2026 Met Gala transformed the museum stairs into a living art gallery under the “Fashion Is Art” theme. Guests treated their gowns like sculptures, delivering a night of wearable masterpieces. Venus Williams co-chaired in a black mermaid silhouette adorned with a sweeping Swarovski neckpiece inspired by Wimbledon’s Rosewater Dish. Her husband complemented her look in a classic tuxedo with a burgundy bow tie and silver brooch. Coco Jones impressed in a custom aubergine tulle gown by Prabal Gurung, styled with matching soft waves. La La Anthony showcased a bronze Wiederhoeft design, hand-embroidered with raffia, crystals, glass beads and supported by a lace-up corset for a sculpted finish. Co-Chair Beyoncé embraced a diamond-encrusted “skeleton” motif with a spiked headpiece and feathered train. Janelle Monáe pushed boundaries in Christian Siriano’s “techno-organic” creation, weaving live moss, succulents and thousands of crystals around electrical wires and moving butterflies.
