The event is a celebration of the Costume Institute's exhibition "In America: A Lexicon of Fashion," curated by Andrew Bolton, the Wendy Yu curator in charge of the Costume Institute, which opens to the public in the Anna Wintour Costume Center on September 18th.

Co-chairs this year include Billie Eilish, Timothée Chalamet, Naomi Osaka, and Amanda Gorman. However, plenty of stars took to the Met steps tonight, including the Kardashian family, Justin Bieber, Hailey Baldwin, Tessa Thompson, Jennifer Lopez and more.
