Excitement brews in the fashion sphere as the 2024 Met Gala swiftly approaches. On May 6, marking the first Monday of May, luminaries will converge at New York City’s Metropolitan Museum of Art for the “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion” gala. Anticipation mounts as the red carpet promises an array of interpretations of this year’s theme, “The Garden of Time.”
Yet, the allure extends beyond the thematic ensembles to the mystery of attendee identities. With the guest list shrouded in secrecy, speculation runs rife. Among the rumored attendees, the presence of Taylor Swift remains uncertain, especially following the release of her chart-topping album, “The Tortured Poets Department.”
