The 2026 Met Gala is a charity event celebrating the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute. The theme, Costume Art, invited guests to express their relationship to fashion as an embodied art form. This year's hair and makeup was the standout beauty look, with Hudson Williams' blue and red shimmery eye look and a smattering of gems adding a touch of sparkle to her eyes. Ejae's makeup was done by makeup artist Min Kim using Dior, and her hair was inspired by Korean courtesans. The event's attendees were expected to be high-end fashion, with conceptual, high-editorial looks.
