Hours leading up to the Met Gala can be the most exciting time of the year, as we all anticipate extravagant looks from the hottest celebrities in the world. While we await the countless looks, we reminisce on some of our favorite Met moments given to us by Black women.
The 2024 Met Gala theme is “the Garden of Time,” honoring the Costume Institute’s new exhibit, “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion,” on display at the museum from May 10 to Sept. 2. The event has already began trending on social media as fans gear up for an exciting night of fashion and fundraising. From Beyoncé to Cardi B, many of our favorites love to go all in at Anna Wintour‘s annual philanthropic event, long held in New York City on the first Monday of May.
The 2024 edition of the Met Gala is set to take place today (May 6) at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The exclusive and star-studded event is one of the most important on the celebrity calendar and this year the theme centers around the Garden of Time to coincide with the Costume Institute’s latest exhibit.
Black women never disappoint when it comes to executing a look, a slay and a moment! We expect nothing less from this year’s celebrities who plan to attend. Could we anticipate a Fenty fashion family moment featuring Rihanna, A$AP Rocky and their sons? Will Beyoncé make a surprise appearance as fans go Cowboy Carter crazy? Both moments would be iconic. The one thing that must happen is another Zendaya and Law Roach collab, because what’s Met without those two?
To celebrate the party of the year returning, we’ve gathered the most memorable Black woman Met Gala moments. Because we… are… life. Duh!
