Essentially the celebrity-studded, couture version of your high school prom, the Met Gala (according to the NY Times) is a “a black-tie extravaganza held [by the Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute benefit] the first Monday in May to raise money for the Costume Institute.” Each year, thousands of people stream the red carpet live, awaiting the red carpet looks that (try to) follow the theme of the year’s newest Met exhibition. This year’s theme? “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination.” Check out some of our favorite looks from the night below (you especially won’t want to miss Cardi B).
