Theme of Met Gala 2022
The theme of this year's Met Gala is “In America: An Anthology of Fashion". Elaborating on it,  The Met’s head curator Andrew Bolton said, “The stories really reflect the evolution of American style, but they also explore the work of individual tailors, dressmakers, and designers."

“What’s exciting for me is that some of the names will be very familiar to students of fashion, like Charles James, Halston, and Oscar de la Renta, but a lot of the other names really have been forgotten, overlooked, or relegated into the footnotes of fashion history.”

Where and when to watch Met Gala 2022 Viewers in India can watch the livestream on Vogue website and digital platforms, including Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.
