The Metropolitan Museum of Art is all set to celebrate fashion on the most iconic Monday night in the year for fashion.
In 2023, Met Gala is honoring the legacy of the late designer Karl Lagerfeld with the theme 'Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty.'
However, it is a very costly affair to attend the fashion Gala. In 2018, the ticket costed $29,200 per person, and a whooping$264,283 to reserve a table.
In 2023, the cost of tickets has skyrocketed to $50,000 with 550 people attending the Met Gala.
When the Met Gala was started as a fundraiser, the tickets costed $1000 to attend the event at the Costume Institute.
However, when Anna Wintour was appointed as the editor-in-chief at Vogue, the event became costlier and guest list was carefully curated.
But, the celebrities do not necessarily have to bear the cost of the tickets. Usually, the design house that they represent on the carpet, take care of the costs.
This year, the famous socialite, Paris Hilton will grace the red carpet at Met Gala for the first time.
Actress Alia Bhatt, who will enter Hollywood with the Netflix film 'Heart of Stone' also starrring Gal Gadot and Jamie Dornan is also making her debut at the gala.
