The theme of the Met ball for 2013?
PUNK: Chaos to Couture!
New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute will launch the new exhibition with a Punk themed Met Gala in May. The exhibition will ‘examine punk’s impact on high fashion from the movement’s birth in the early 1970s through its continuing influence today. It will be more about punk as an aesthetic, rather than an attitude.
“Punk smashed every convention. It prized originality, authenticity, and individualism. Punks were so brave and noble. I just think fashion needs an injection of that at the moment,” said curator Andrew Bolton at a preview of the exhibition to Style.com.
Can’t wait to see the red carpet !
