Favorite Met Gala Looks From Years Past

The Met Gala, the annual fundraising event for the benefit of the Metropolitan Museum of Art‘s Costume Institute in New York City. is being held on May 4th. It has always been one of fashion’s biggest events of the year, and we can’t wait to see who will be on the best-dressed list of 2015. The theme for this year will be one of the most interesting yet, ‘China: Through the Looking Glass’. To start getting excited, let’s take a look back at some of our favorite celebrity looks from the past 3 years:
