The Met Gala announces a complex 2024 theme — how will celebrities interpret it on the red carpet?


(CNN) — The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute has revealed details of its 2024 spring exhibition, which serves as the inspiration for the theme of the accompanying Met Gala. And while the past three year’s themes have been more straightforward, mining the archives of Karl Lagerfeld’s career, glamour from the Gilded Age, and American fashion broadly, next year’s Met Gala — taking place on Monday, May 6 — will be based on more conceptual reference points around fashion history, nature, technology and the senses.

“Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion” will be presented at the Costume Institute in New York from May 10 through September 2, 2024, pulling rare “masterworks” from the Institute’s archive for museumgoers to experience in a new, imaginative way, according to a press release.
