Controversially, the Met named Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and his wife Lauren S\u00e1nchez Bezos honorary chairs, a move that has led to widespread protests. (The two are reported to have given the Met Gala $10 million.) The gala always precedes the opening of the Costume Institute\u2019s spring show, which this year is titled \u201cCostume Art\u201d and opens to the public on May 10.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThe 2026 event kicked off earlier this evening with the somewhat vague dress code of \u201cFashion is Art.\u201d (Compare that to last year\u2019s theme honoring Black dandyism, a much more specific concept.) As always, the Met Gala features a star-studded cast of co-chairs (Beyonc\u00e9, Nicole Kidman, Venus Williams, and Anna Wintour), and host committee members from the worlds of fashion, sports, film, and music. Representing the art world on the committee are the artists Anna Weyant, Tschabalala Self, and Amy Sherald.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tBelow are some of the most eye-catching looks from the A-list celebrities who graced the Met steps with their presence on Monday night.<\/p>\n<div id=\"pmc-gallery-vertical\">\n<div class=\"c-gallery-vertical-loader u-gallery-app-shell-loader\">\n<ul class=\"pmc-fallback-list-items lrv-a-unstyle-list lrv-u-margin-t-2\">\n<li class=\"pmc-fallback-list-item-wrap lrv-u-margin-b-2\">\n<article class=\"pmc-fallback-list-item\">\n<h2>Songwriter and Fleetwood Mac Frontwoman Stevie Nicks<\/h2>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"410\" src=\"https:\/\/www.artnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/GettyImages-2274535635.jpg?w=400\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt='NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 04: Stevie Nicks attends the 2026 Met Gala celebrating \"Costume Art\" at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 04, 2026 in New York City.
