American TV star Kim Kardashian has taken to Instagram to announce that she will be attending the Met Gala 2023, which is scheduled to take place on 1st May at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The mother of four posted a sweet selfie with Karl Lagerfeld’s cat, Choupette, revealing that she is gearing up for her Met Gala look, which is likely to be inspired by Lagerfeld’s archival looks from his time as creative director of Fendi or Chanel.
In honour of this year’s theme, “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty,” the 42-year-old had a date with the legendary designer’s beloved cat, Choupette, in Paris. Kardashian captioned the post, “We then spent some time at @karllagerfeld’s office to get a little inspiration for the Met.” The post featured photos and videos of Kardashian with Lagerfeld’s famous feline.
One of the photos shows Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian’s sister wearing a vinyl black coat as she combed through design sketches and magazine cutouts. In another photo, Kardashian is seen lounging with Choupette on an elaborate gold bed.
This year’s Met Gala will be co-chaired by actor Timothée Chalamet, musician Billie Eilish, poet Amanda Gorman, and tennis star Naomi Osaka. The event, which is often referred to as the “Oscars of the fashion world,” raises funds for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute.
It is worth noting that Kardashian’s attendance at the Met Gala 2023 has been highly anticipated, given her history with the event. The reality star has attended the Met Gala several times in the past, often making headlines for her bold and daring fashion choices.
