The Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute Benefit Gala, with a unique theme, has put forth fashion like it has never been seen before.
One of the most glamorous and fashionable events of the year, the theme of the Met Gala 2016 was "Manus x Machina: Fashion in an Age of Technology". "Manus" which means clothes made by hand and "Machina" referring to machine-made clothes, the theme for Met Ball tried to explore the conflict and the coordination of the two.
Metallic tones and flowing gowns clearly stole the show.
