WHEN IS THE MET GALA 2020?
The Met Gala takes place on the first Monday of May, which this year falls on May 4. Red-carpet coverage normally begins at 7pm local time, when team Vogue will begin reporting on all the outfit details.
WHERE WILL THE MET GALA 2020 TAKE PLACE?
The Met Gala always takes place in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The night begins with a cocktail hour, in which guests walk the red carpet and explore the new exhibition, before dinner and performances.
WHAT IS THE MET GALA 2020 THEME?
The year 2020 is a milestone for the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The New York institution will celebrate its 150th anniversary. Theme: About Time: Fashion and Duration.Bolton found inspiration for the exhibition in the 1992 Sally Potter film Orlando, which was based on the time-traveling Virginia Woolf novel of the same name.
“There’s a wonderful scene,” he says, “in which Tilda Swinton enters the maze in an 18th-century woman’s robe à la Francaise, and as she runs through it, her clothes change to mid-19th-century dress, and she reemerges in 1850s England. That’s where the original idea came from.” Met Costume Institute Gala 2020
The exhibition, which will be presented in the Met Fifth Avenue’s Iris and B. Gerald Cantor Exhibition Hall, will be made possible by Louis Vuitton. Bolton is working with Es Devlin, the visual artist and stage designer, on the exhibition design. “I’ve long admired her work and wanted to collaborate with her,” he says. “This theme seemed most suitable for her, she’s done several of what she calls mirror mazes and she often refers to the complexity of time with her design process.” The cochairs for the gala on Monday, May 4, will be Nicolas Ghesquière, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Meryl Streep, Emma Stone, and Anna Wintour.
About Time: Fashion and Duration will be on view at the Costume Institute from May 7 through September 7, 2020.
