It’s the first Monday in May, and you know what that means: The 2026 Met Gala is upon us. This year’s theme is “Costume Art,” and the dress code is “Fashion Is Art,” which spotlights the body as both the subject and the canvas. In short? There’s plenty of room to play, so expect celebrities to go bold, sculptural, and entirely over-the-top. One of the most anticipated looks of the night is from none other than Venus Williams, who is one of the co-chairs for tonight’s glamorous fundraiser.
Williams has long been an avid collector, curator, and supporter of the arts, so fans have been waiting for her interpretation of tonight’s theme with bated breath since her role was announced in December. As expected, the tennis superstar aced the assignment, wearing a custom Swarovski gown for the event. Still, my eyes were on her glam.
