The dress code for Met Gala 2024 is The Garden of Time, inspired by J.G. Ballard's short story, written in 1962. The story revolves around a crystal flower that has the power to reverse time. Keeping the theme Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion in mind, we were expecting flowers and sparkles on the green carpet, and of course, the Met queens Jennifer Lopez and Gigi Hadid did not disappoint!

Pop icon Jennifer Lopez, who is also hosting the Met Gala this year, walked the carpeted steps in a stunning sheer body-hugging gown that took about 800 hours to make. It is embellished with a whopping over 2 million bugle beads and silver pearls. 

Designed by Daniel Roseberry, the custom Schiaparelli couture gown had a butterfly-inspired sculpted neckline and was draped, with a slit at the front with an illusion tulle, a fitting vision for this year’s garden theme. A crystallized train completed the look.

Supermodel Gigi Hadid wore a Thom Browne gown which featured a white off-the-shoulder corset dress with exaggerated hips. The sparkling white gown was trimmed with black and featured embroidered appliques of 3D yellow roses. 

The intricate gown was handmade by more than 70 craftsmen, taking over 13,500 man-hours. After the MET, the gown will go into Browne’s permanent archive. 

Gigi wore sparkling diamond drop earrings and had her blonde hair in a wavy bob, with romantic Hollywood red lips. 

The Met Gala takes place at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City on the first Monday of May, each year. The gala marks the opening of the museum’s annual fashion exhibition.
