What is the 2022 Met Gala Theme, Gilded Glamour?

The upcoming Met Gala exhibit "In America: An Anthology of Fashion," will be a continuation of "In America: A Lexicon of Fashion," exploring American fashion with a focus on the 19th to the mid- to late 20th century.

With a Met Gala 2022 theme like "Gilded Glamour," it is fair to say big, bold, and gold is to be expected on the red carpet. As an extension from last year's theme, expect lots of references to American fashion and culture, specifically during the Gilded Age.

Last year, Lupita Nyong'o wore this Versace denim piece to represent the fabric's lasting impact on American fashion through the years.
