This Week’s Top Stories: Met Gala, NAD+ Drips, and More!
The Met Gala is almost here, and this year’s theme, “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” is making a statement. The event will celebrate Black dandyism, a historical movement representing identity, power, and resistance.
Co-chaired by prominent figures like Pharrell Williams and ASAP Rocky, the gala’s focus on Black fashion comes at a time when diversity and inclusion efforts are facing challenges. While some applaud the theme, others criticize Vogue’s historically slow progress on diversity.
Regardless, all eyes will be on the Met steps this Monday.
