Before we dive in, you know I love a little context. Everything is better when you know a bit of a backstory, don’t you think? Below, a look at this year’s Met Gala, a celebration of Black style. Scroll down for a quick explainer on the theme of the exhibition, the influence of Dandyism, as well as the dress code for tonight. I have also included a look at the four co-chairs of the evening and their groundbreaking fashion efforts.

Then join me in the comments to discuss your favorites! I will be looking for the thought behind the looks. You know I want to see these A-listers dressing with intention. Join me, won’t you? ⬇️

ICYMI: Here is my earlier look at fashion’s biggest night, otherwise known as a star-studded fundraiser for the Anna Wintour Costume Center at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. (This just in: They raised a record $31 million.) Also relevant to this discussion, my chat with fellow Substacker Amy Odell on what makes Wintour so powerful.
