The 2026 Met Gala brought together the biggest names in music, film, and culture for a night where fashion truly became art. And representing Black excellence in two different eras were none other than R&B legend Babyface and rising star Chase Infiniti.
Held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, this year’s theme, “Fashion Is Art,” pushed celebrities to treat the red carpet like a canvas. The result was one of the most visually creative Met Galas in recent memory, blending music, storytelling, and high fashion into one unforgettable night.
