Could the Met Gala 2024 get even more exciting than the now-viral moment when Zendaya made her grand entrance in that striking Maison Margiela gown and dramatic headpiece looking entirely like an ocean goddess—and then took to the red carpet, again, in an equally gorgeous archival Givenchy pull? Or when Stray Kids arrived full force to make history as the first K-pop group to grace the annual event? The answer appears to be a resounding yes—if the flood of celebrity interactions from the evening circulating online is anything to go by.
It’s been an absolute treat to see this year’s distinguished invitees walk the red carpet, each in their gorgeous interpretations of the Met Gala 2024 dress code ‘The Garden of Time’, but we’ve barely scratched the surface of the evening’s high. The real fun, it would seem, begins after these famous faces ascend the iconic steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, as they come together to celebrate fashion’s biggest night of the year. It is here, after all, that the most recognisable names across fashion, music and art cross paths and interact. From the event itself to the glamorous after-parties, see the best and most unexpected celebrity interactions we’ve spotted at this year’s Met Gala—immortalised in playful selfies and feisty party snaps.
