Where is the Met Gala taking place?

The gala takes place at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, and raises funds for the museum’s Costume Institute.

What is this year’s theme?

This year’s theme is “In America: An Anthology of Fashion,” following 2021’s “In America: A Lexicon of Fashion.”

It’s based on a two-part exhibition from the museum, the second installation of which will “reflect the evolution of American style” and also “explore the work of individual tailors, dressmakers, and designers,” as the Costume Institute’s head curator, Andrew Bolton, told Vogue.

The 2022 theme, Gilded Glamour, and the 2021 theme, American Independence, are tied to the museum's “In America: A Lexicon of Fashion,” which the Met describes as “a two-part exploration of fashion in the United States."

Who is on the guest list?

While Vogue keeps its guest list top secret until just before the big event, Page Six Style exclusively revealed that Megan Thee Stallion will attend this year’s gala wearing Moschino.

Beyond that, the Met Gala regularly draws the biggest celebs in the game — Rihanna, Kim Kardashian, Beyoncé, Lady Gaga and Taylor Swift have all attended multiple times — so expect plenty of other major names.

Gudi Padwa 2023-A Hindu New Year

 Gudi Padwa is the Hindu new year that is also known as the Samvatsar Padvo, celebrated  across India. The cycle of sixty years i.e., Samvatsara begins on this occasion. This year the Gudi Padwa is observed on April 2, 2022, and the rituals are performed in the Hindu Luni-solar calendar in the month of Chaitra.

According to Hindu mythology, the term Gudi Padwa originates from two words 'gudi', meaning flag or symbol of Lord Brahma and 'padwa' implies the first day of the phase of the moon. For that reason, in Maharashtra, one can notice the flag in most of the houses celebrating the festival.

The festival is linked to the mythical day on which Hindu god Brahma created time and universe. To some, it commemorates the coronation of Rama in Ayodhya after his victory over evil Ravana, or alternatively the start of Shalivahan calendar after he defeated the Huns invasion in the 1st century.

While others believe that that this day commemorates the coronation of Rama in Ayodhya after his victory over Ravana. Maharashtra's legendary warrior, Chhatrapati Shivaji first started celebrating Gudi Padwa after his victory. Since then Gudi Padwa is celebrated in every Marathi household to welcome the New Year.

It is named after two words with ''Gudi'' meaning the emblem or flag of Lord Brahma and ''Padwa' signifying the first day of the moon. People celebrate the occasion with the customary oil bath which is practised as the day begins, following which they decorate their abodes and slip into new clothes.

Lord Brahma

Ugadi is considered to be the first day of the creation of the universe and it is because of this reason, Lord Brahma is being worshipped on Gudi Padwa.

Gudi is the symbol of victory and it is raised to symbolize that God is victorious at every level of war. Rangoli is made around Gudi and at the entrance of house..
