This year’s Met Gala will be held to commemorate the second volume of “In America: An Anthology of Fashion,” which is being presented by the Costume Institute following “In America: A Lexicon of Fashion.” The event was originally scheduled for April 2020, but has been postponed.
The exhibition will go on display in the American Wing’s period rooms starting May 5, 2022, with both this and the prior show, which opened late last year, on view until September 5, 2022. Andrew Bolton, the MOMA’s head curator of The Costume Institute, focuses attention on “inclusivity in fashion” in The Inclusive Anthology of American Fashion.
On Vogue’s website, it states: “The Met Gala 2022 will address the question ‘Who gets to be American’ from Prabal Gurung’s spring/summer 2020 collection. It will also be addressed at the gala in 2022.” What Is The 2022 Met Gala Theme?
What Is The 2022 Met Gala Theme?
The theme for the 2022 Met Gala is “Who Gets to Be American?” This question has been at the forefront of conversations around immigration and diversity in the United States, and it will be a focus of this year’s gala. Featuring collections from designers such as Prabal Gurung, who explores themes of identity in his work, and Andrew Bolton, head curator of The Costume Institute at MOMA, the theme seeks to encourage dialogue about what it means to be an American today.
As always, the event promises to be glamorous and exciting, with some of Hollywood’s biggest stars decked out in their finest fashion. We can’t wait to see all the incredible looks on display at this year’s Met Gala – here’s hoping it goes ahead as planned.
