In the shadow of the Corona epidemic, forcing a deathly silence to all the world's fashion, culture and music events, actor Billy Porter and Vogue magazine decided not to completely give up on the event and declared a viral challenge: Costume Recovery passed from the ceremony
The Met Gala does not die: It is always said that the person makes plans and the big boss sits up and laughs. This year, he's probably doing it in pajamas, sponsored by the Corona epidemic that has paralyzed the entire world and turned most of us into prisoners in our home, with a wardrobe made up mostly of pajamas and glam-less household clothes.

Unlike Cinderella's prom, which was once held and lined it with everlasting happiness and wealth alongside its prince, the Matte Gala, the most prestigious and probably the world's most prestigious red carpet event, has been held every year since 1948. Until the corona eruption, the prestigious ceremony was canceled twice , In 1963
and 2002.
Had we been in a normal routine, the preparations for the ceremony were well underway and the buzz was at its peak these days for the prom which was traditionally scheduled to be held on the first Monday in May (ie today, May 4). But this year, just like any other multiplayer event around the world, the red carpet of the mat has also been rolled up in the closet and the ceremony will not take place or at least not as we got used to seeing it.

Vogue Magazine teamed up with actor and fashion icon Billy Porter, who showed up to the ceremony last year with a pair of giant golden wings and starred on the Oscars in a tuxedo dress, announcing a viral challenge to mark the prom named #metgalachallenge.
As part of the challenge, announced last week, surfers have been invited to restore favorite and memorable looks from the ceremony over the years. "The look you choose to reproduce and the way you choose to do it depends entirely on you, but think outside the box," the magazine said in a call to readers. As expected, the challenge soon became popular and swept the surfers who began tagging invested block pictures. The winners of the challenge will star on the magazine's website and Instagram page.
A heavenly fundraiser for the world's most talked about event

It was founded in 1948 by journalist Eleanor Lambert, and at least in its early days was considered a pretty glam-free fundraising event. In 1995, legendary Vogue editor Anna Wintour took the reins, making it the industry's most sought-after and most sought-after event, individually endorsing each and every one invited to the event, which is often the industry's most glamorous names.
Each year, another theme is chosen to be the one that will set the tone for Couture to fill the red carpet with a host of extraordinary outfits that the industry's best designers have been working on for months. Over the years, select topics have included "celestial bodies," "man in front of the machine," and "Catholic fashion," and particularly memorable looks include Katy Perry's chandler dress, Sarah Jessica Parker's hat that featured the Jesus Birth Scene, Kylie's Mermaid Dress Jenner, actor Jared Leto's severed head that he wore in Katy Perry's Pope's hands and gown.

The panel of expert hosts chosen to take part in this year’s event included actress and ambassador Louis Vuitton Emma Stone, Louis Vuitton chief designer Nicola Gaskier, playwright Lin Manuel Miranda and actress Meryl Streep.
This year, the museum had to align with the guidelines and declare the prom's rejection to an unknown date. For quite a few fans of the ceremony, it was a declaration that it was nothing less than a tragedy. "Like everyone else, I experience the Corona epidemic as a sequence of painful and disappointing developments, when no one knows what will give birth," Anna Wintour wrote to Vogue magazine readers last week.

"Following the Metropolitan Museum's inevitable and responsible decision to close its doors, the annual fashion show 'About Time' and the gala event on opening night will not be held at the appointed date," she added, but signed the unfortunate announcement at a small light spot: parts of the exhibition in question will be revealed in the May issue.
