Met Gala Pivots to an ‘extraORDINARY’ Theme Focused on Everyday Fashion After Backlash to Scrapped John Galliano Tribute

The 2027 Met Gala has unveiled a new theme titled ‘extraORDINARY: fashion and the poetics of the everyday.’ This shift follows a media storm and backlash regarding a scrapped tribute to John Galliano. The upcoming event will now focus on the allure of quotidian garments and the elevation of undersung beauty. By pivoting to everyday fashion, the star-studded gala aims to move past the controversy surrounding the French designer and highlight the beauty found in ordinary clothing.
