The Metropolitan Museum of Art was founded in 1870 with the mission of bringing art, culture, and education to the American public. In the over 150 years since, the Met has steadily grown into one of the world's most influential museums.
To be clear, Harry Styles at the Grammys is not a surprise. The musician-actor has long been a familiar sight at the awards show - the three-time winner was omnipresent during the early 2020s. But, since releasing Harry's House in 2022, Style's antics have skewed monkish; beyond his blisteringly fast incognito marathons, he's generally managed to recuse himself from the glaring limelight.
For the 98th Academy Awards on Sunday, March 15, Ariana Greenblatt channeled 2026's color du jour: butter yellow. Hers was crafted in a flowy, off-the-shoulder number with floral accents. Vibrant colors were also a go-to on movies' biggest night. Bridgerton alum Charithra Chandran opted for an emerald green, while Li Jun Li went for a Sinners-coded blood red.
A record-breaking, dazzlingly dressed crowd turned out for San Francisco Ballet's Opening Night Gala on Jan. 14, with the fete raising more money than any event of its kind since the organization's founding in 1933 - a major achievement at a time when the organization attempts to balance grand ambitions amid mounting controversy. The sold-out evening at City Hall and the War Memorial Opera House brought out big names
People are getting ready, you know, they're doing body toning, they're doing skin tightening. I need to look perfect without looking done, head to toe perfection, you would be shocked. The tight jawlines with the Everest, get them snatched and lifted, and the best thing is I can do it, and they can walk to get their makeup done right away.
Elle Fanning often takes fashion risks on the red carpet. The "Sentimental Value" actor has worn see-through outfits and looks with daring slits. Recently, she has embraced gowns with plunging necklines. Elle Fanning is almost as well known for her style as she is for her acting résumé. The actor, who just earned her first Oscar nomination for her performance in "Sentimental Value," is often included in best-dressed lists, from her on-theme Met Gala outfits to glamorous awards show ensembles.
Teyana Taylor showcased the maximalist layering technique of piling unexpected pieces atop one another, as seen on the runways of Thom Browne and Loewe. Completely decked out in Hermès, the Straw actor wore a collared oat jacket with long, billowy sleeves, left completely open for a skin-baring twist. It was styled with a printed scarf that looped around the collar, evoking a makeshift vest.
Travelling for art can be incredibly virtuous and culturally rewarding, like collecting souvenirs for your eyes (and from the post card rail in the gift shop). Remembering to research what is on before I book flights is a lesson I learnt all too well after I missed the Metropolitan Museum's fashion exhibition in 2016 by one day. As a fashion obsessed 20 something, I did not take this well and have since improved my itinerary planning and exhibition calendar checking.
The end of the show did not mark the end of the trip. Back at the Le Grand Bellevue the group divided between fireside hot chocolates and the hotel's spa. The hotel's Le Grand Spa is over 3,000 square metres and has eight different types of saunas, several ice showers, foot baths and an outdoor bubble pool (named thus as it's bigger than your standard jacuzzi).
While the face accessory was potentially meant to render her incognito, the supermodel's choice of attire did quite the opposite. Pulling from the 2001 archives of Jean Paul Gaultier has that effect, especially if the item in question was a plunging halter dress with the deepest low back and 12 oval cutouts across her entire butt, lined by rosettes across the center. The gown's slits were so large that even her beige thong peered through.
Men look incredible when they step off the ledge and take a slight turn toward the classics. Those classic touches I mentioned above-namely, good roped shoulders-work for any man, whether actually rich and famous or just wants to look that way.
