MET Gala

It's all about Couture ! Or Anna Wintour?

It's today's topic -- Soon it's MET Gala, the costume event of the year! This year, the big happening is on May 2, 2016.
For those who don't know what it contains -- well, it's for all the fashion lovers and of course it's a fundraising gala benefit of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's costume institute of New York City. In this museum all the beautiful costumes ever made, back in time and from today are exposed.
To celebrate the opening of the Institute's annual fashion exhibition, this runs for several months, some designers (Yves Saint Laurent - Chanel - Dior - Valentino - Alexander Wang - ... ) create a special custom made look for women celebrities!



Less than a year, the successful exhibition "China: Through the Looking Glass", (May 7 - August 16 2015)
