Designer Bob Mackie, writing in a New York Times opinion piece, argues the Met Gala needs a creative reset and a return to genuine showmanship and glamour. The piece, which also references John Galliano, criticizes the event's current direction and calls for more daring, theatrical fashion rather than safe or spectacle-free choices.

Why now: The high-profile critique from a legendary costume designer is sparking debate about the Met Gala's direction ahead of the next event.
