The Met Store, the retail arm of New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art, has partnered with fashion media powerhouse Vogue to sell designer products on Instagram as the Met Gala—the A-list event whose red carpet has in prior years seen actor Billy Porter carried in by half a dozen shirtless men and actor Jared Leto tote his own head as an accessory—returns for the first time since 2019.

The Instagram collaboration will include monthly product drops through April 2022, starting with a live shopping event with designer Virgil Abloh, founder of luxury label Off-White.
