Top names from film, music, sports and fashion gathered in New York on Monday for the annual Met Gala, one of the world’s biggest fashion events.
Celebrities including Beyonce, Madonna and Nicole Kidman walked the red carpet at the event held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This year’s theme, “Fashion is Art,” was linked to a new exhibition at the museum’s Costume Institute.
Beyonce made a notable return after several years, arriving in a striking outfit that drew attention from fans and photographers.
Other stars such as Rihanna, Doja Cat and Bad Bunny also appeared, while athletes and designers added to the star-studded lineup.
The event is organised under the guidance of Anna Wintour and serves as a fundraiser for the museum.
Organisers said the gala raised a record amount of money this year, highlighting its importance in the fashion world.
The exhibition linked to the event will open later this month, showcasing fashion alongside artworks from different periods.
Despite some criticism over its display of wealth, the Met Gala remains one of the most talked-about cultural events each year.
