Met Gala 2024

With colorful robes full of flowers, pearls, antlers and butterfly motifs, stars like Jennifer Lopez, Kim Kardashian and Shakira have transformed New York's Metropolitan Museum into a kind of fairytale forest. With the gala on Tuesday night in New York, the stars celebrated the opening of the exhibition “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion,” which shows fashion around the themes of nature, plants and animals. There were protests against the exhibition around the museum Gaza war. However, a large police presence prevented the demonstrators from gaining access to the gala, which was cordoned off over a large area. The Gaza protests did not make an impact in the fairytale forest spectacle on the beige-green carpet on the steps of the museum.
