” The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s annual Costume Institute exhibition is the most spectacular event of its kind.
Each exhibition—from 2005’s Chanel, to 2011’s Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty and 2013’s Punk—creates a provocative and engaging narrative attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors.
The show’s opening-night gala, produced in collaboration with Vogue magazine and attended by the likes of Beyoncé, Supermodels and GeorgeClooney is regularly referred to as the Party of the Year.
This book offers the insider scoop of the first order.
Anchored by photographs from the exhibitions themselves in tandem with the Vogue fashion shoots they inspired, it also includes images of exhibited objects and party photos from the galas.
Drawn from the extensive Vogue archives, the featured stories showcase the photographs of icons such as Annie Leibovitz, Mario Testino, Steven Meisel, and Craig McDean; the vision of legendary Vogue editors like Grace Coddington and Tonne Goodman; and the knowledge and wit of writers such as Hamish Bowles and Jonathan Van Meter “.
