Break News: Met Gala 2024: Kim Kardashian to Dua Lipa; best and worst dressed celebrities from last year’s Gala

Attention fashion lovers, it’s Met Gala time! Fashion’s biggest night, held on the first Monday in May, is just around the corner and we can’t wait to see what extravagant looks will be served up this time around. The theme of this year’s Costume Institute exhibition is quite enigmatic: Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion. Meanwhile, guests will be dressing in ‘The Garden of Time’, inspired by the J.G. Ballard short story of the same name. The highly anticipated event, dubbed the fashion Oscars, will take place on May 6 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.

While we wait for the official ceremony to begin, let’s take a look back at last year’s gala, which was nothing short of a glamorous event, with celebrities dressed to perfection under the theme ‘Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty’. From Alia Bhatt’s pearl embellished white gown to Kendal Jenner’s black catsuit, here are some of the best and worst dressed celebrities from the Met Gala 2023.

Kim Kardashian has become synonymous with her boundary-pushing Met Gala ensembles, from the iconic “wet dress” in 2019 to her Marilyn Monroe-inspired attire last year. However, her 2023 Met Gala outfit failed to ignite the same excitement and left many feeling underwhelmed and disappointed. It seemed to embody a perceived decline in her fashion empire, lacking the spark of inspiration and creativity that she’s known for.
