This year’s exhibition, Costume Art, will position fashion alongside fine art. Running from May 10, 2026 through January 10, 2027, the museum’s newly opened, nearly 12,000-square-foot Condé M. Nast Galleries will feature hundreds of works focused on the dressed body, presented alongside fashion pieces that reflect the exhibition’s themes. In keeping with the concept, the evening’s dress code, “Fashion is Art,” will invite attendees to approach their own attire as a form of artistic expression.
