The gala is a yearly fundraiser for the Met’s Costume Institute and invites designers to adorn stars, models, and sometimes influencers in the fashions of a selected theme to match a wing of the museum’s exhibit.
The 2022 exhibit is a continuation of the 2021 theme of American fashion and will include “cinematic vignettes” created by top Hollywood directors congruent with the “In America: An Anthology of Fashion” theme.
While each year the event, largely considered the Oscars of fashion, as selected co-hosts and honorary hosts, Vogue’s editor-in-chief Anna Wintour has been at the helm of the Met ball since 1995 curating a tight-knit invite list, seating arrangement, and dress code which is gilded glamour.
“I’m just excited to get in and see my friends. It’s gonna be a good time,” Ramos added. And you never know who will show up to the Met Gala.
Anthony Ramos is an actor who was in the musical Hamilton as well as a variety of other popular musicals such as Grease, In the Heights, 21 Chump Street, and Little Shop of Horrors.
