The weekend festivities also included the Monse Maison Pre-Met Cocktail Celebration at Le Mercerie in SoHo, where Pamela Anderson stunned in a fresh-faced look and Doja Cat went pants-less.

This year's Met Gala theme is "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion." Max Hollein, CEO of The Met, said in a statement that the "innovative" exhibition -- and the accompanying star-studded annual fundraising gala -- will "push the boundaries of our imagination and invite us to experience the multisensory facets of a garment."

According to the announcement, the Metropolitan Museum of Art's exhibition will include garments that span over 400 years, and will be "visually united by iconography related to nature, which will serve as a metaphor for the fragility and ephemerality of fashion."

The event's dress code is The Garden of Time, which is inspired by J.G. Ballard's 1962 short story of the same title. According to Vogue, "the most obvious interpretation would be to embrace the 'garden' part of 'The Garden of Time.' Think melancholic florals (as moody florals aren’t moody enough)."

While the guest list is a closely-guarded secret, several stars have been seen in the Big Apple in recent days.

Rihanna has already confirmed her forthcoming appearance, telling British Vogue that she'll be at the swanky soirée while teasing her red carpet look.

Entertainment Tonight will be on the iconic Met Gala red carpet, so keep checking back with ETonline for more coverage from fashion's biggest night, including all of the jaw-dropping red carpet looks.
