Janet Mock Gets Ready for the 2019

The #MetGala. It always takes place during the first Monday in May. It's always fashion's most-celebrated fête. And this year, it was all about doing the most. Janet Mock — author, activist, and the first trans woman of color to write and direct an episode of television with FX's Pose — attended for the first time, and took the invite as a charge to represent. "My people created it," Mock said of the gala's Camp: Notes on Fashion code. "Everyone else is kind of coming here to put on a show, and I think that for a lot of #queer and #trans people, doing the most is just our everyday." Tune in to see Mock master the most in custom Alberta Ferretti, cite Josephine Baker as her muse, and reveal what it's like to finally get a seat at the table.
