The Met Gala is one of the most prestigious events in the fashion industry.
Celebs from all over the world flock to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in their finest and most daring outfits to celebrate The Costume Institute in a ball overlooked by none other than Vogue's editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, who always gets a say on the guest list.
Among the elite guests are the fashion icons like Rihanna, Katy Perry, the entire Kardashian clan, as well as every major model in the business. And with a guest list like, there's bound to be some pretty major moments.
While the main discussions of the evening usually revolve around who wore what, there are always a few special moments that cause an uproar amongst the fashion magazines and the Twitter-sphere alike.
Here are the best moments from last night's star studded event.
Sean "Diddy" Combs decided to take a rest on the famous steps.
The unprecedented act was just the kind of kick off the event needed.
