The Met Gala is a huge event in the fashion social calendar, that sees everyone who’s someone flock to New York for some good old fashion-ed (see what we did there) fun.
So for those of you who have no idea what its all about, it's an annual fundraising event for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute. Which would explain why the stars opt for OTT rather than simplicity.
Each year has a different theme to celebrate and showcase designers' flare and talent, and luckily for us, it means we get to see a whole host of celebs in weird and wonderful creations.
This year's theme is Manus X Machina: Fashion in an Age of Technology
and we can’t wait to see what designers and their famous pals have to
offer.
Could Lady Gaga return in her infamous Egg that she once
arrived to the Grammys in? Or will Alexa Chung dust off her Christopher
Kane space dress for the gala? Will Gaga rock up in something Gaga for the Met Gala?
As this year's bash gets closer, we take a look back at the
best, worst and just baffling looks from years gone by from the Met Gala Sienna and Jude gave us all the relationship goals back in 2010
Remember in 2010 when Sienna Miller and Jude Law were the idol couple? The actress wore this plunging, yet stunning Pucci gown.
