The grandest of them all, Met Gala, the annual fundraiser for the Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum of Art sees A-list socialites, actors, models, musicians and singers in their quirky/fashionable best on the red carpet every May. Although the event started back in 1948, it was during the 70s that the gala witnessed high-risk glamour.
As the 2020 Met Gala stands postponed for an indefinite period in light of COVID-19 and public health concern, LuxeBook goes back in time and presents the gala’s iconic looks of all time.
