The Metropolitan Museum of Art (Met) in New York City has announced that the 2023 Met Gala theme will be ‘Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty’. The Met first confirmed the news at a press presentation during Paris Fashion Week in September, and later announced that the theme of the gala would be “in honour of Karl”.
The 2023 Met Gala will be a celebration of the life and work of the late Karl Lagerfeld, the iconic fashion designer who passed away in February 2019. Lagerfeld was the creative director of Chanel and Fendi, and was known for his bold and daring designs. He was also an accomplished photographer and artist, and his work has been featured in many of the world’s most prestigious museums.
The exhibition will feature a selection of Lagerfeld’s work, including his designs for Chanel, Fendi, and his own eponymous label. It will also include photographs and artwork from his personal archives, as well as a selection of his writings. The exhibition will explore Lagerfeld’s influence on fashion and art, and will highlight his unique vision and creative genius.
The 2023 Met Gala will be the first major event to honour the life and work of Karl Lagerfeld. It will be a celebration of his life and legacy, and a chance for the fashion world to come together and pay tribute to the man who changed the face of fashion. The event will be sure to be a star-studded affair, with many of the world’s top celebrities and fashion icons in attendance.
