While editor, Anna first organized the Met Gala in 1995 and has been presiding over it ever since. For the 2023 Met Gala , Anna is celebrating the opening of the Costume Institute exhibition, Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty. The star-studded affair will also pay tribute to the legacy of Lagerfeld, as the “dress code” is said to be in honor of the famed designer.
