										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Katy Perry attended the <strong>2026 Met Gala</strong> for the first time in four years, showcasing a striking space-themed look. The event took place on May 4 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.</p>
<p>Perry wore a custom white strapless gown designed by Stella McCartney. The gown featured a full pleated skirt and lengthy train, with cutouts resembling burn marks. This design may reference her upcoming single, &#8220;Watch It Burn.&#8221; Her headpiece was custom-designed by Miodrag Guberinic.</p>
<p>However, Perry&#8217;s return to the spotlight comes amid serious allegations. Ruby Rose has accused her of sexual assault, which Perry has denied through a representative. No formal charges have been filed regarding these allegations.</p>
<p>As of midday, it remains unclear what the police investigation entails. Perry briefly removed her mask to pose for photographers on the red carpet, but her partner, Justin Trudeau, was absent due to attending the Women Deliver Summit in Australia.</p>
<p><strong>Key facts about Katy Perry&#8217;s appearance:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Perry&#8217;s gown was made from repurposed Italian deadstock duchess satin—no new materials were used.</li>
<li>The Met Gala raised a record $42 million for the Costume Institute in 2026.</li>
<li>Perry shares custody of her 5-year-old daughter, Daisy Dove, with ex-fiancé Orlando Bloom.</li>
</ul>
<p>Perry and Trudeau became Instagram official in December 2025 after being linked since summer 2025. Meanwhile, reactions to her outfit have highlighted its unique design and environmental consciousness.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Bad Bunny arrived at the <strong>2026 Met Gala</strong> looking 50 years older than his actual age using hyper-realistic prosthetics. The event took place at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York on May 5, 2026.</p>
<p>The prosthetics were created by makeup artist Mike Marino, who sculpted every wrinkle and blemish on Bad Bunny&#8217;s face. He also carried a cane as part of his costume.</p>
<p>Bad Bunny wore an all-black tuxedo designed in collaboration with Zara. The outfit featured an oversized pussy bow instead of a traditional tie.</p>
<p>The theme for this year&#8217;s Met Gala was &#8216;Fashion is art,&#8217; encouraging guests to deliver custom works of art. Bad Bunny&#8217;s look was inspired by the Met&#8217;s exhibit &#8216;Costume Art,&#8217; which explores the &#8216;dressed body&#8217; as an art form.</p>
<p>This exhibit will run from May 10, 2026, through January 10, 2027. Observers noted that Bad Bunny&#8217;s transformation challenges traditional beauty standards, particularly in a youth-oriented fashion industry.</p>
<p>As a reflection of societal fears regarding aging, one commentator remarked that &#8220;the youth-oriented fashion industry has traditionally ignored the aged body.&#8221;</p>
<p>Heidi Klum also attended the Met Gala, known for her elaborate costumes, adding to the artistic atmosphere of the event.</p>
<p>Bad Bunny stated, &#8220;It took 53 years to finish the look,&#8221; highlighting the meticulous effort behind his transformation.</p>
<p>The impact of his appearance will likely resonate within both fashion and art communities, prompting discussions about age representation in these fields.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Heidi Klum attended the <strong>2026 Met Gala</strong> in New York City, transforming into a marble statue inspired by the Veiled Vestal sculpture. The event took place on May 4, highlighting the theme &#8220;Fashion Is Art.&#8221; Klum&#8217;s costume showcased her signature extravagant style just months ahead of Halloween.</p>
<p><strong>Key details:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>The Met Gala raises funds for the Metropolitan Museum of Art&#8217;s Costume Institute.</li>
<li>Klum&#8217;s costume was designed by Mike Marino.</li>
<li>The Veiled Vestal sculpture was created by Raffaelle Monti in 1847.</li>
</ul>
<p>Within hours of her arrival, Klum&#8217;s transformation drew widespread attention. She decided that Halloween should come early at the gala, giving another jaw-dropping display of her creativity.</p>
<p>Experts note that veiled sculptures like Monti&#8217;s gained popularity during the 19th century. This historical context adds depth to Klum&#8217;s choice for this year&#8217;s theme.</p>
<p>Her ensemble stands in stark contrast to her 2025 outfit, where she wore a simple black gown. That year, she opted for minimalism, but this time she embraced maximalism.</p>
<p>Klum is renowned for her elaborate Halloween costumes. Her latest appearance reinforces her status as a fashion icon who views fashion as an art form.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The <strong>2026 Met Gala</strong> is scheduled for May 4, 2026, at 6 p.m. ET at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The event is already facing backlash due to Amazon&#8217;s role as a main funding source.</p>
<p>The theme for this year’s gala is &#8216;Costume Art&#8217; with the dress code &#8216;Fashion is Art.&#8217; The gala will support the Costume Institute’s spring 2026 exhibition.</p>
<p>As of early Tuesday, several prominent figures have expressed their discontent. Celebrities such as Beyoncé, Nicole Kidman, and Venus Williams will co-chair the event alongside Anna Wintour. Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez Bezos will serve as honorary chairs.</p>
<p>Critics argue that Amazon&#8217;s involvement undermines the artistic integrity of the event. They highlight concerns over corporate influence in a space traditionally reserved for creativity and philanthropy.</p>
<p>Last year, the gala raised more than $31 million US, showcasing its importance as a fundraising event. Individual tickets cost $100,000 US, while tables for ten start at $350,000 US.</p>
<p>Andrew Bolton, curator of the Costume Institute, stated, &#8220;It&#8217;s reversing what we&#8217;ve done before,&#8221; indicating a shift in focus towards corporate partnerships that some find troubling.</p>
<p>With approximately 400 guests expected this year, many are questioning whether celebrity attendance will be affected by the boycott calls. Activist Zohran Mamdani emphasized affordability in his critique, saying, &#8220;My focus is also on affordability and making the most expensive city in the United States affordable.&#8221; </p>
<p>The gala will also inaugurate the new Condé M. Nast Galleries, which span approximately 1,115 square metres. This development adds to the significance of the event amid ongoing controversies surrounding its funding sources.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The 2026 Met Gala will feature a new permanent gallery space dedicated to fashion, marking a significant development for the institution.
