Met Gala History
The inaugural Met Gala was launched in December 1948 by fashion publicist “Eleanor Lambert.” The occasion was arranged to collect donations for the Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Arts. The Costume Institute joined the Metropolitan Museum two years prior to the inaugural Met Gala.
The department had the duty of generating funds for its own purposes. In the 1970s, the Met Gala became a genuine fashion celebration thanks to Diana Vreeland's efforts. She began revealing the event themes and dress codes to make it engaging and appealing for the followers. The well-known event attracts globally recognized celebrities from the fields of art, fashion, and entertainment.
