“This morning, I went to the preview of the Met Gala exhibition, ‘Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,’” Puck’s Lauren Sherman writes. “While sitting through remarks by Miller, Bolton, and co-chair Colman Domingo (wearing a gorgeous berry-colored Ozwald Boateng suit), my mind kept going back to the number mentioned by the Met’s C.E.O., Max Hollein: $31 million. That’s how much money the gala raised for the Costume Institute this year, thus far. It’s an extraordinary amount, and illustrates what a big business this event has become…”
