demystifying the met gala 2024 theme
‘Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion’, the theme announced by the Mets Museum of Art’s Costume Institute for the 2024’s Met Gala, invites attendees to embark on a journey through fashion history – an odyssey to its timeless beauty.
Unlike previous themes, this year's concept isn't to be taken literally, though hints of fantasy, magic mirrors, and princesses may grace the red carpet. In contrast to past galas, such as 2019’s ‘Camp: Notes on Fashion’ which called for theatrical and playful attire, as defined in Susan Sontag’s essay, or 2017’s ‘Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons: Art of the In-Between’, summoning unconventional silhouettes and unexpected elements inspired by the Japanese designer, this upcoming gala beckons guests to indulge in fashions intricate past.
Around 250 items carefully curated from the Institutes collection, including rare archival pieces, will be on display. The heart of the ‘Sleeping Beauties’ exhibition refers to the 400 years of fashion craftsmanship, structured around 50 intricately created pieces, each holding commemorative significance, too fragile to ever be worn again. Work by icons such as Yves Saint Laurent, Elsa Schiaparelli, Stella McCartney and Alexander McQueen contribute to this showcase.
This exhibition gives a more contemplative experience. Innovative technology and sensory stimulation will be employed, allowing guests to be emotionally immersed in this exclusive journey. The 3 main zones, Land, Sea and Sky, will structure the exhibition, exploring changing attitudes to the natural world through creative use of natural materials in design.
As we anticipate the looks on the red carpet of fashions biggest night out, designers are encouraged to peruse the work of their predecessors, reimagining historical masterpieces in a contemporary light. This not only showcases their talent but pays homage to the art that has paved the way for creatives of this age.
#themusecoterie wonders how designers and celebrities will collaborate and interpret this ingenious theme. We expect to see meticulous looks from designers’ archives, aligning into the fast-growing trend of sustainability and pre-loved fashion. Garments as enriched and redefined with technology are also anticipated, creating a synergy of heritage and innovation.
Perhaps the misinterpretation of the title will inspire magical creativity, with reference to the zones adorned with flora, fauna and weather.

Associated Press, Nov. 8, 2023–MET GALA 2024 THEME:
SLEEPING BEAUTIES: REAWAKENING FASHION
The upcoming Met Gala includes rare historical garments and contemporary fashions, a curator says. The theme is said to be inspired by fragile garments in the museum’s collection that require special glass containers for preservation.
—- the gala will explore themes of rebirth and renewal
—- It will feature around 250 garments and accessories spanning across four centuries
—- The ball is May 6, 2024
—-Yet to be announced: the celebrity hosts
—- The exhibit will run from May 10 to September 2, 2024
“These garments are so fragile they need to be housed in special glass “coffins,” curators said. Garments will be displayed in a series of galleries organized by themes of nature. Examples include a space decorated with the “insectoid embroidery” of an Elizabethan bodice, or a ceiling projecting “a Hitchcockian swarm of black birds” surrounding a black tulle evening dress from before the outbreak of World War II.

The Met Gala’s theme is Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion which is about historically significant fashion pieces that are too fragile to ever be worn again. What are your thoughts?
Personally, while I’m excited about the the knowledge of fashion history I will invest in, given last year’s Kim-Marilyn debacle I think more celebs will misinterpret the theme and use fashion museums’ archives as their personal shopping malls and destroy the original piece. Obviously some won’t because of Kim’s backlash but some may favor any kind of attention as good PR and numerous pieces of fashion history will be lost in the process.

they JUST announced the met gala theme? i wonder what kind of drama was going on backstage because this is like 6-8 weeks late…
#also the theme is ‘sleeping beauties: reawakening fashion’#it’s somehow about depictions of nature and also senses i think? it’s kinda vague imo but has a lot of potential for looks#because there’s a LOT one can create inspired by nature and a LOT of ways one can implement sensory exciting elements in that#starting from basic embroidery all the way to new materials and textures to depict a blooming flower for example#met gala#and as far as i understand they’ll be implementing other senses too so maybe we’ll have something with sound or smell?#i think a costume of wind that sounds like gusts of wind could be fabulous#and i don’t mean speakers i mean using like physics and engineering so like when u lift/swing ur arms a sound is produced

When I finally have the space and an actual work desk I'd like to try my hand at making masks as an artistic hobby. The intentions aren't therianthropic, moreso just a love of costume as expression, but that will not stop me from making canine faces when I get the technique down
#I have a board specifically for masks and it was made like early last summer way before I reawakened#I just think they look so cool!! I love costumes and unusual fashions!!#And I'll definitely post whatever I make here if I get the chance to give making them a go#Hopefully I'll be able to hang them up on my wall#Send me ideas of things to make into masks or smth so I can draw up designs ;)#Art#Mask#Crafts#Costume design

The 2024 Met Gala will be held on May 6th 2024 and the theme is “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion”
The exhibit will focus on reviving the “sleeping beauties” of the museum’s archive, pieces that haven’t been displayed in many years. The exhibit will use various forms of technology to bring the pieces back to life, most of which are too fragile to be worn again.

web of wyrd: how to identify fame/popularity
the top left corner of the wyrd web can tell you about some of your talents/interests, the core tells you who you truly are, and the flow/career is like the midheaven of the wyrd web realm. that being said, these are basic premises; in no way does one number mean a single thing. each number can mean different and multiple things. these are simply my observations (also observations are not destined to be true; they are simply possibilities / increased odds). if you want to learn more about the major arcana, which is the basis for the web's numbers, click here!
acting
3 (the empress): they are the real star of the show - the camera loves them
11 (justice): they can really step into a persona and become a character
artist
3 (the empress): they have an eye for detail; they are used to sitting still and observing the world. they have a creative instinct to creative because they are venus ruled
18 (the moon): they are very abstract visionaries and creators
breakdown / postmortem
13 (death): this is typically an unexpected occurrence that captures the attention of the masses
16 (the tower): famous breakdowns and even more sudden deaths
20 (judgment): they have a reawaken as to who they are that capture the world's attention
director
12 (the hanged man): the artistic eye for sure; it's because they are a neptunian that they can make their vision into a reality
fashion
11 (justice): i don't how often i can repeat this before everyone gets annoyed, but the fashion of 11 people is just iconic - they are trendsetters
infamous
16 (the tower): these people tend to be popular/famous for something morally unsavory
influencer
8 (strength): the giantess is the guiding hand that in encourages others
literally anything
10 (the wheel of fortune): these people are the type to blow up overnight and get "lucky" by becoming famous
17 (the star): they tend to have ups and downs in their time for popularity/fame but in the end they remain memorable in a lot of people's minds
21 (the world): tends to represent someone with a lot of rewards and fame after a long period of time
nepotistic
14 (temperance): the angel pours one cup into another - like a parent's talent into their child
one hit wonder
22 (the fool): these people tend to fall as soon as rise (due to being uranus ruled) - they take a single big leap then they are good
politics/legals
4 (the emperor): they can be great leaders - they use their powers for the greater good and to better the world around them
7 (the chariot): they tend to make great speeches that inspire the masses
11 (justice): they tend to be more wrapped up in the legal end of things or they are moderates in the political realm
religious leader
5 (the hierophant): they are often seen as wise and can gain a lot of worshipers/followers
research/educational
5 (the hierophant): they tend to make incredible discoveries that further the world around them
19 (the sun): they tend to make a discovery that changes the world around them
singer
3 (the empress): they have a magnetic energy that makes others want to listen to them and watch them preform their creativity
4 (the emperor): they tend to be great rappers and tend to make great diss tracks haha
6 (the lovers): these people are known for their sound and their appearance (they are considered gorgeous)
writer
6 (the lovers): this card is gemini ruled so writing is definitely their thing
9 (the hermit): these people can make their own world - they are good at illustrating their thoughts
12 (the hanged man): they are very good at multi-POV writing and making an idea very realistic

“Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion
The Met Gala's theme is “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion" and it is being described as a multisensory experience. Although not the architect of the program, it would seem as one would know fashion in itself is not something one just sees, you feel it, you see it, you smell it , you even hear it as it is being handled. Expect more details as the date gets closer .
