On May 7, the Met Gala, a traditional costume institute ball, was held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. According to Novoye Vremya, this year its theme was Western Christianity and its impact on the fashion industry. The name of the ball was exactly the same as “Divine Bodies: Fashion and Catholicism”.
Every year, the Met Gala brings Hollywood stars, musicians, designers and models together - in this sense, the 2018 ball was also an exception. It was attended by singers Rihanna, Madonna, Lana Del Rey, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, actresses Zoe Kravitz, Amber Heard, Scarlett Johansson, Anne Hathaway, Blake Lively, supermodels Cindy Crawford, Cara Delevingne, Bella and Gigi Hadid and others. Most of the celebrities who attended the 2018 Met Gala came in outfits dominated by different shades of red. This color in Christianity is associated primarily with the theme of the Resurrection as the victory of Life over Death. However, the Christian theme chosen for the ball this time did not prevent some of the stars from appearing at the event in rather revealing outfits. The Met Gala ball is of a charity nature and is timed to coincide with the grand opening of the fashion show. The purpose of this exhibition is to give visitors the opportunity to juxtapose the fashion of the past with the present. Many of the world's celebrities strive to appear at the ball in the most extravagant outfits.
