Tacky or treasures?
One of the biggest fashion events of the season, the 2013 Met Gala, held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on Monday, May 6, in New York City was themed punk. Beyoncé served as honorary chairperson for this year’s Costume Institute Gala, which is the preview for the 2013 spring exhibition, PUNK: Chaos to Couture, running from Thursday, May 9 through August 14. According to The Met’s website, the exhibit “will examine punk’s impact on high fashion from the movement’s birth in the early 1970s through its continuing influence today.”
