The 2016 Met Gala Guest List Is Going To Be Insane
There are very few things in the fashion industry that are as top secret as the 2016 Met Gala guest list. It's a list that takes months to prepare, and is arranged by one of the industry's top power players, Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour. With exclusivity like that, it's no wonder that many celebrities and designers vie to be included. However, there are a select few that are sure to be a staple on this year's red carpet. Whether they are a top tier Hollywood actor or fashion's next muse, there are a few of Hollywood's elite that we can safely assume made the cut.
