It's that time of year again: Celebrities will soon flock to New York City for the annual Met Gala.

The 2023 event will take place at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on the evening of May 1, with a theme honoring the late German fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld.

The event is private, with only celebrities, fashion moguls, and employees seeing what happens inside. But if you're hoping to catch the night's fashion, there are a few ways to tune into the red carpet.

Vogue will host the official livestream of the Met Gala red carpet

The livestream will begin at 6:30 pm ET on Vogue's website, though you can also watch it on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.

La La Anthony, Derek Blasberg, and Chloe Fineman will be co-hosting the red carpet, and influencer Emma Chamberlain will return as a "special correspondent," Vogue says.

This year's Met Gala theme has been dubbed "Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty," and the dress code is "in honor of Karl."

The event will celebrate his life and career, and the museum's adjacent Costume Institute exhibit will include more than 150 pieces, many of which will be displayed alongside sketches from the designer, Vogue reported.

"He would sketch everything," Andrew Bolton, head curator of the Anna Wintour Costume Center, told Vogue. "He would always say that he could draw before he could talk or walk. In many ways, it was his primary form of communication, whether he was delivering them by fax machine or iPhone."

Lagerfeld, who died at the age of 85 in 2019, was best known for his work at Chanel, Fendi, Balmain, and his namesake brand, as Insider's Samantha Grindell previously reported.

Many of his muses including Cara Delevingne, Lily-Rose Depp, and Naomi Campbell are expected to attend.
