Vogue’s Met Gala Challenge Asks You to Recreate the Most Iconic Looks

The Met Gala, which sees a parade of the world’s biggest celebrities walk the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York to open The Costume Instituteā€™s spring exhibition, was set to occur on May 4 in 2020.

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the event was postponed, with a new date yet to be announced. Now, in an effort to entertain the fashion community and keep the magic of the Met Gala alive, Vogue is announcing the #MetGalaChallenge, or the “challenge to end all fashion challenges”.

The online movement invites people around the world to recreate the event’s most iconic red carpet looks in a move that “pays tribute to the nightā€™s peacocking spirit”.

The task is fairly straightforward. You choose a look ā€” be it Rihanna’s omelette-inspired Guo Pei gown or Kim Kardashian’s dripping Mugler dress ā€” and do your best to emulate the ensemble with pieces you find at home.

You don your creation and upload a photo to Instagram, using the hashtag #MetGalaChallenge. Vogue and Billy Porter will then select the most creative looks to end up on the official Vogue Instagram page.

In a post to Vogue’s Instagram page, Porter says: “You have until May 3 to enter. Post with… #MetGalaChallenge. You might just find yourself in Vogue, darling.”
