The Met Gala was on Monday, and the biggest names in fashion and entertainment gathered at the Metropolitan Museum of Art for the exclusive event. This year’s theme, “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” explored the legacy of Black fashion and dandyism with the dress code, "Tailored for You.”  It was one of the swaggiest Met Galas with a powerful message. But what comes with beautiful fashion statements is hilarious memes. Check out 20 of the best memes about the Met Gala below.

Many guests wore big hats to the Gala, but Zendaya’s might have been the most viral. One of the funniest memes on TikTok is the “Zendaya’s big hat theory.” The joke is that everything changed after she wore a giant black hat to the 2014 Teen Vogue Young Hollywood Party- it’s a hilarious rabbit hole, claiming the hat is evil and took over.
