Costume Art at the Met's Costume Institute is the museum's annual blockbuster fashion show — one of the most visited exhibitions in any American museum. The 2026 edition explores the history of the Costume Institute's own collecting practices and the art of costume conservation. Plan for lines on weekends; early weekday mornings are the move for a quieter experience. Included with Met admission.
