The theme of next year's Met Gala has been revealed. According to WWD, 2018's exhibition will be focused around 'Fashion and Religion'.
Although the museum has not confirmed the rumours, WWD reports that multiple sources close the Met – including a number who have been privy to preliminary discussions – have revealed the news.
While planning for the exhibition is very much in the early stages, sources say that the "serious and ambitious" project was thought up long ago.
Numerous designers including Dolce & Gabbana, Christopher Kane, Jeremy Scott and Jean Paul Gaultier have referenced religion in their work, which could make for a very interesting exhibition. The nature of the subject, however, could make for a controversial theme when it comes to celebrity dressing at the gala.
