As of the last few years, there's been some pretty strict rules for those attending the biggest evening in the fashion calendar, but what exactly are the big 'no-nos' for celebrities attending the Met Gala this year?
The theme for tonight's Met Gala is 'Superfine: Tailoring Black Style', so we're expecting to see celebrities flood the red carpet with all their chicest style choices.
Rihanna, Zendaya, and A$AP Rocky are among those predicted to have stand-out looks.

It will focus on the history and influence of the Black dandy in the Western world, and there's a huge focus, for once, on menswear.
But celebrities attending the event are required to stick to a certain set of rules, and have so for the last few years.
Vogue’s editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, who curates the annual event, sat down with CBS Mornings in 2023, and revealed what changes were being made for the years to come.
Around 600 famous faces are invited to attend the Met Gala, so how exactly does Anna and Met curator Andrew Bolton keep a plethora of high-profile celebrities in line?

The first absolute no-no is smoking in or around the venue.

The second is keeping hands off the artwork and exhibitions at all costs.
Simple rules, but hard to regulate.

Opening up about the rules, Andrew said: "Smoking in the galleries. Touching the artwork. Those would be no-nos."
When asked about the smoking rule, the curator confirmed that famous faces have previously been caught lighting up in the restrooms.
Editor-in-chief Anna also opened up about how exactly you bag an invite to the exclusive event.
But it seems as though there's no real way of going about it.

She noted: "Honestly, it depends on the year, it depends on the subject of the exhibition. Really, there’s no clear answer to that."
Another rule is no selfies, which, if it's your first year attending, feels a little harsh.

However, this has of course been broken on numerous occasions by celebrities such as Kylie Jenner and Billie Eilish.

You also have to be over 18 to attend, as a Met Gala spokesperson previously noted that the event is 'not appropriate' for those under that age.
There's also a strict seating plan in place, which celebrity guests have been warned not to mess with.
Sylvana Ward Durrett, director of special projects at Vogue, said in the 2016 documentary The First Monday in May: "A lot of thought goes into who sits next to who, if they sat together last year, if they've sat next to each other at other events, so much goes into it, it's shocking."
