This year’s dress code for the Met Gala was revealed as Gilded Glamour, a theme reportedly inspired by the Costume Institutes exhibition, In America: An Anthology of Fashion, according to Just Jared.
According to Vogue, “The 2022 Met Gala will ask its attendees to embody the grandeur—and perhaps the dichotomy—of Gilded Age New York”.
“The period, which stretched from 1870 to 1890 (Mark Twain is credited with coining the term in 1873), was one of unprecedented prosperity, cultural change, and industrialization, when both skyscrapers and fortunes seemingly arose overnight.”
Hundreds of celebrities have used this year’s Met Gala theme to showcase their own interpretations of Gilded Glamour, with many famed guests opting for bold and extreme white-tie looks.
As revealed by Vogue, the Met Gala’s annual theme represents different and important time periods in history.
“In 2020, for “Camp: Notes on Fashion,” it was studied triviality. In 2021, for “In America: A Lexicon of Fashion,” it was American independence. And come May 2, 2022, for “In America: An Anthology of Fashion,” it will be gilded glamour, white-tie,” Vogue wrote.
Hugh Jackman, 53, and wife Deborah Furness, 66, opted for a more traditional look as the couple donned understated black and white tones. Jackman stepped out in a perfectly tailored three-piece suit with tails whilst Furness sported a sparkling black lace dress featuring bold wing-like sleeves.

In 2020, the Met Gala was cancelled amid the global pandemic and in 2021, the Gala was postponed from May to September due to ongoing Covid-19 restrictions.
