Fashionistas rejoice — this year's most fashionable red (or in this case, pink) carpet is here.
Previous themes, such as Heavenly Bodies, have caused controversy and this year's theme looks to again keep us on our toes, matching the Met's Costume Institute exhibition - Camp: Notes on Fashion.
The exhibitis inspired by Susan Sontag's 1964 essay that defines camp as "love of the unnatural: of artifice and exaggeration."
The gala, spearheaded by Vogue editor Anna Wintour, is easily one of the most exclusive events in the world and every Met Gala attendee must be personally approved by Wintour herself.
So, as the stars begin to descend on the event, here are our picks for the best dressed on the fashion world's most impressive pink carpet.
Woman of the hour, Vogue editor in chief Anna Wintour, looks the epitome of glamour in a pink and black feathered cape worn over a heavily embellished floral sequin dress.
The queen of chic wore a vintage diamond necklace which perfectly compliments her trademark hairstyle.

Lady Gaga
If there is one person who knows how to make an entrance, it's Lady Gaga.
The Poker Face hitmaker, and co-host, first arrived in a voluminous pink number, and then transformed, not once, not twice, but three times in front of enthralled media.
Her final outfit change revealed a lingerie number complete with a pink and gold Haus of Gaga trolley full of hats and bags.

Harry Styles
The final host for the night Harry Styles has arrived wearing a sheer black puffy-sleeved blouse with a bow, black trousers, heeled black boots and a single pearl earring.
The entire outfit was Gucci, and the former One Direction star took time to pose on the carpet with the brand's creative director.

Celine Dion embodies the theme of this year's Met - the more extra the better.

Sara Sampaio
In a peplum layered dress, the Victoria's Secret model resembles a princess with a sparkling, diamond net over a white tulle gown.
Sampaio then funked up the look with a smokey eye for her first ever Met Gala.
They might've missed the memo on the theme, however, because in their twinning fully leather outfits, we don't see much that is unexpected at all.
