The starry guest list for the upcoming Met Gala — taking place on the first Monday in May – is starting to leak out.
Page Six hears Kim Kardashian, a Met mainstay, will be back on the carpet at the so called Oscars of Fashion.
No word yet on whether Kendall Jenner and the rest of the sisters, along with momager Kris Jenner, will attend as they have in the past.
We hear “Weapons” star Julia Garner will also be walking the carpet again this year, as well as designer and model Alexa Chung, Gabrielle Union, “Ella McCay” actress Rebecca Hall, and Golden State Warrior Jimmy Butler.
Hailey Bieber is also expected to attend, though it is unknown if hubby Justin will also be there.
This year’s theme is “Costume Art,” with a dress code of “Fashion is Art.”
Costume Institute curator Andrew Bolton told Vogue, “What connects every curatorial department and what connects every single gallery in the museum is fashion, or the dressed body. It’s the common thread throughout the whole museum, which is really what the initial idea for the exhibition was.”
The show will pair approximately 200 garments and accessories with 200 artwork.
The host committee includes Beyoncé, Nicole Kidman, Venus Williams, and Anna Wintour.
YSL designer Anthony Vaccarello and his muse Zoë Kravitz are co-chairing the Gala Host Committee, which includes Sabrina Carpenter, Doja Cat, Gwendoline Christie, Alex Consani, Misty Copeland, Elizabeth Debicki, Lena Dunham, Paloma Elsesser, LISA, new Vogue editor Chloe Malle, Sam Smith, Teyana Taylor, Lauren Wasser, Anna Weyant, A’ja Wilson, and Yseult.
