Скачать или смотреть Why the 2026 Met Gala Might Be the Most Controversial Yet

The Met Gala is about to turn the fashion world inside out — and yes, Beyoncé is back after a decade off. Venus Williams, Nicole Kidman, and Anna Wintour are joining her as co-chairs, which basically means the 2026 gala is going to run on star power, discipline, and a dash of beautifully intimidating energy.

This year’s theme, “Costume Art,” is all about the dressed body — naked, sculpted, pregnant, classical, aged… every form you can imagine, served alongside 200 garments styled like they’re auditioning for immortality. Andrew Bolton said “fashion is an embodied art form,” and suddenly everyone’s pretending they knew that already.

We’ve got new galleries, a stacked host committee (hi, Zoë Kravitz and Anthony Vaccarello), and enough celebrity firepower to light up Manhattan. Expect outfits that challenge the mind, haunt your Pinterest board, and possibly confuse your grandmother.

Let’s get into what this theme really means, who’s about to dominate those steps, and why 2026 might be the most chaotic, couture-heavy Met Gala yet.
