Fashion biggest night is making a statement this year with its dress code, “Fashion is art.” Global Editorial Director of Vogue Anna Wintour and the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute curator, Andrew Bolton, are putting their stamp of approval on the idea. A-list stars and cultural tastemakers took the Met steps Monday as part of the fundraising event for the museum's Costume Institute. Guests from Vogue red carpet correspondent Emma Chamberlain to professional tennis player Naomi Osaka aren't playing it safe this year with custom works of art in honor of the dress code.

The brightest stars in Hollywood, music, sports and style -- led by Beyonce, Madonna and Nicole Kidman -- hit the red carpet Monday for the Met Gala, the Manhattan charity ball that doubles as fashion's biggest night.
The Met Gala turned New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art into the world's most glamorous red carpet, with A-list actors, musicians, athletes, artists and designers coming together for charity -- and offering their best looks.
The Fleetwood Mac icon made a grand entrance.
Monday's glittering Met Gala guests will be the first to sample “Costume Art,” a new exhibit that explores the dressed body through art history. Curator Andrew Bolton says the exhibit aims to reclaim diverse body types. Those include corpulent, disabled, aging and pregnant bodies. The show features 25 new mannequins, painstakingly created on real people with various body types. Highlights include garments that emphasize the pregnant body, and corsetry that displays rather than hides the flesh. There is also a section that explores various types of disability — physical, sensory and cognitive. The show opens May 10 to the public and runs through Jan. 10, 2027.
Hundreds of years ago, Yemen helped introduce the world to coffee. Lately, the mountainous, war-ravaged country that borders Saudi Arabia is exporting something else: its coffee culture. Yemeni coffeehouses are opening at a rapid pace across the U.S. Restaurant consulting company Technomic says the number of cafes run by six major chains that serve Yemeni-style drinks grew 50% last year to 136, and that doesn't include smaller chains and independent cafes. Yemeni coffeehouses are meeting the moment for several reasons. They stay open late and provide a place to socialize for the growing number of U.S. adults who don’t drink alcohol. Americans are also seeking out global flavors.
