NEW YORK — The 2024 Met Gala raised greater than $26 million, a report sum for the get together that has change into an annual gathering for mega-celebrities in trend, movie, TV, sports activities, music, enterprise and extra, the museum mentioned.
Monday night’s gala, a fundraiser for the museum’s Costume Institute, was sponsored by TikTok and the style label Loewe. It was overseen as traditional by influential Vogue editor Anna Wintour, who was joined as host by Jennifer Lopez, Unhealthy Bunny, Zendaya and Chris Hemsworth.
Tables of 10 began at $350,000 for the dinner. The theme was “The Backyard of Time” and the fairytale motif was everpresent within the decor, which included a 32-foot “whimsical tree” centerpiece within the museum’s Nice Corridor.
