(34,849 posts)21. So, beautiful inside and out. ...
I'm so happy to see her out, celebrating men of fashion (the dandy theme) including the great André Leon Talley, donating to a good cause and especially having fun spreading her joy.
I love her.
Thanks for everything, Kamala.

~generation of AI fun facts, I'm lazy editon~
The cost of entry to the 2025 Met Gala for an individual is $75,000. Tables for multiple guests start at $350,000. The proceeds from ticket sales go to the costume institute.
A standard adult ticket to the **Metropolitan Museum of Art** costs **$25**, but visitors can pay what they wish. The museum generates revenue from admissions, but this only makes up **about 14%** of its **$300 million budget**.
The Met is a **non-profit institution**, meaning most of its funding comes from **private donations, grants, and endowments**. The **City of New York** also provides financial support. Other revenue sources include **membership fees, retail sales, and auxiliary activities**.
Ever been to the Met? Its a treasure trove of art spanning **5,000 years**definitely worth a visit! 🎨

That's my President. She won. Trump told us that Elon stole it for him, and that nobody ever had to vote again.

She's lovely. And what she's wearing is perfect - both strikingly beautiful and tasteful.
