Inside the Met Gala: The best pics taken despite the social media ban

3 May 2017

If you didn’t Instagram at the Met Gala, were you even there?

Despite a blanket social media ban imposed by Anna Wintour, celebrities couldn’t help themselves at this year’s Met Gala, posting Snapchats and Instagrams from inside the hallowed halls of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

A-list actors rubbed shoulders with fashion designers and Formula One racing car drivers mingled with models… oh, to be a fly on the wall at this party!

The bathroom was clearly the place to be, with a number of mirror selfies taken that, if measured by number of celebrities per, er, “capita”, would certainly rival Ellen DeGeneres’ infamous Oscars selfie from 2014.
