A groundbreaking new fashion exhibit is set to captivate visitors at the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute, offering a multi-sensory experience that goes beyond traditional visual displays. Titled 'Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion,' the exhibit will feature 250 carefully selected garments from the institute's archive, some of which are so delicate that they will be showcased lying in glass coffins, reminiscent of the iconic fairy tale character.
Opening to the public on May 10, the exhibit will be unveiled at the star-studded Met Gala on May 6, hosted by a lineup of celebrities. The dress code for the gala, themed 'The Garden of Time,' promises a creative array of garden-inspired ensembles, with one standout piece being a living garden coat designed by LOEWE.
