From Indian celebs like Alia Bhatt, Priyanka Chopra attending it to the Karl Lagerfeld theme: All about Met Gala 2023

The Met Gala is an annual fundraising event for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute in New York. It's one of the most prestigious fashion event and those who have a deep eye for fashion look forward to it every year. Celebs bring out their A-game when it comes to fashion each year and this year too, the excitement is at its peak. Here's what to look forward to at Met Gala 2023.

This year Met Gala's theme is based on the work of Karl Lagerfeld who worked at prominent fashion houses. Many of his accomplished works and sketches will also be at display. However, this theme faced backlash because Lagerfeld was a designer who was prejudiced and has also passed body-shaming statments. In 2009, he had said, "no one wants to see round women". Many people aren't liking the fact that this year's theme revolves around him, leaving behind many other iconic designers.

PC is all over the place promoting 'Citadel', literally making us feel like she's conquering the world one step at a time and so Indian fans are surely looking forward to her Met Gala appearance and seeing her and Alia together.
