This year, the Met Gala It will be held on the first of May. The Fashion Oscars, as the event is known, will be themed “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty” and co-hosted by Dua Lipa, Michaela Coel, Penelope Cruz and Roger Federer.
So far, the list of celebrities who will meet to make an impact with their extravagant outfits has not been revealed, but there is talk that possibly Shakira is included.
This would be the first time that the Colombian singer attends the Met Gala. Despite their separation from the media and the songs full of hints that led her to become the most listened to Latin artist, the reason why Anna Wintour would have decided to invite her has to do with a series of events related to fashion that have been taking place since last year.
In November 2022, the “Hips Don’t Lie” singer starred in a Burberry campaign. It should be noted that the firm is one of the fashion houses that always says it is present at the event and that the dress worn by the singer is similar to the one Lila Moss wore last year.
In addition, there is the alliance between Shakira and the stylist Nicolas Bru, who has worked with celebrities such as Lili Collins and Heidi Klum. Bru was in charge of the “revenge dress” that the Barranquilla woman used at the 2022 Cannes Film Festival. Added to this are all the covers of fashion magazines of which Shak has been the image in this time.
So far neither the singer nor Anna Wintour, who directs the Met Gala for almost 30 years and selects the hundreds of guests at the event, have referred to the issue, which indicates that they would have to wait to confirm their attendance.
Those invited to this event must pay a large entrance fee and, in many cases, are accompanied by fashion designers and show off their creations in a sort of sponsorship.
