The Met Gala on Thursday announced its dress code and celebrity co-chairs, including Latin music superstar Bad Bunny, actress and singer Jennifer Lopez, "Euphoria" actress and Hollywood A-lister Zendaya and "Thor" himself, Chris Hemsworth, who will join Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour.
This marks Hemsworth's first Met Gala, while Bad Bunny has been to the benefit three times. Zendaya's appeared at the gala five times while Lopez has a whopping 13 trips up the Met Gala steps under her belt.

On May 6, celebrities will grace the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City for this year's exhibit theme, "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion." Honorary chairs are Loewe creative director Jonathan Anderson and TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew. TikTok is the gala’s sponsor this year, with support from Loewe.

When is the Met Gala?
The 2024 Met Gala will take place May 6. The exhibit will be open to the public from May 10 to Sept. 2, 2024.
Last year's Met Gala paid homage to the late designer Karl Lagerfeld, who was the longstanding creative director of Chanel at the time of his death.
Celebrities such as Rihanna, Kim Kardashian, sisters Kylie and Kendall Jenner, Cardi B, Serena Williams, Usher, Jared Leto and Doja Cat walked the red carpet.
What is the Met Gala 2024 dress code?
This year's dress code is "The Garden of Time."
"More modern, less delicate pieces imbued with the same spirit as the spotlit fashions will be showcased alongside them, and broken up into three sub-themes: Land, Sea, and Sky," Vogue wrote.
"Think melancholic florals (as moody florals aren’t moody enough)." the magazine also said.
Met Gala 2024 theme
This year's dress code will align with the previously revealed theme, "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion."
The "sleeping beauties" is not inspired by Disney princess, but instead, treasured garments in the museum’s collection that are so fragile that they need to be housed in special glass "coffins" rather than on mannequins, curators said. Garments are slated to be showcased in a series of galleries organized by the themes of nature.
