Initially, the Met Gala was not a themed event, it started introducing themes after 1973.

The 2024 Met Gala is almost here. This year, a number of A-listers from arts, business and entertainment will show up in outfits based on the theme: Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion. In anticipation of a fashion-filled Monday, here is a look back at last year’s Met Gala viral moments. Last year’s theme was Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty, as a tribute to the late legendary designer. The popular looks on last year’s Met Gala red carpet were in black and white, as was the case in many of Lagerfeld’s designs. Here are the top 10 moments from Met Gala 2023 that created a buzz:
