Met Gala, an annual event, held on the first Monday of May every year, has announced the dress code for this year. And this year's theme is personal. While the exhibition is titled ‘Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,’ the dress code for the guests is ‘Tailored for You’ with a focus on menswear for the first time since 2003.
