The evanescent burst of cherry blossoms, the rainbow of tulips coloring the sidewalks, the mellifluous hyacinths perfuming the air—spring is in the air, and we’re not just talking about the fauna and flora in the natural word. Another flowering taking place is the 2024 Met Gala, held annually on the first Friday in May. This year’s theme—“Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion”—will celebrate the Costume Institute’s new exhibition of the same name; an exhibit that will feature approximately 250 items from the museum’s permanent collection, some rarely seen in public before, and displayed in an entirely new way.
Naturally, it seems as though fashion houses large and small have collectively embraced the theme, putting forward an array of accessories that appear to be quite literally, in full bloom. See for yourself in our May issue, and in a shoppable edit, below. (And don’t forget to tune into the 2024 Met Gala livestream on May 6!)
