The 2024 Met Gala Is Officially Here, And People On The Internet Are Ready To Put Their Fictional Fashion Degrees To Work

In connection with the exhibit, the actual theme for the 2024 gala is "The Garden of Time." So prepare to see timeless looks, florals and plants, and unique interpretations of the dress code.
Fans of one of fashion's biggest events have already voiced their excitement. Here's what people are saying online:

Will yall forgive me if I’m annoying about the met gala tonight I’m just deeply invested in fashion as an art and love making fun of people who can’t follow a theme for their lives

I am lying on my bed, in my jim-jams, resting bags of cheesy snacks on my belly, ready and waiting to judge the fashion choices of the world’s most beautiful people as they arrive at the #MetGala.
