Met Gala 2017: The Runway Looks We Hope to See on the Red Carpet
The 2017 Met Gala will take place on May 1, and the theme for this year's Costume Institute exhibition and gala is Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons. Kawakubo is the first living designer to be the subject of an exhibition since Yves Saint Laurent in 1983, and will co-chair the event.
Each year, Met Gala attendees determine their outfit according to the theme, so we predict that most will be decked out in elaborate, and intricate Comme des Garçons designs.
We spent some time searching through the fashion house's archives, in order to predict what we'll see on the red carpet in May.
