The Costume Institute’s annual gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City is arguably fashion’s biggest night of the year. While stars gussy themselves up for the Oscars red carpet and let their hair down for the MTV Video Music Awards, it is at the Met Ball (as the event is colloquially dubbed) that Hollywood’s A-List can showcase their high fashion know-how.
This year, the Met Gala celebrates the opening of the museum’s exhibition PUNK: Chaos to Couture, which tracks punk’s transformation from a street style to haute couture. Launch our gallery below to see which stars embraced the punk theme (*cough* Miley Cyrus) and who played it safe.
