5 Reasons Why the Kardashians Will Be a Met Gala Staple for Years to Come

It goes without saying that the biggest fashion event of the year, the Met Gala, should feature the biggest personalities in the world of fashion, who will grace the red carpet with their fresh outfits and million-dollar smiles. That's why the rumors that Anna Wintour decided not to invite the Kardashians to this year's ball came as a bit of a shock.

Thankfully, the whole scandal turned out to be a total hoax, as both Kim Kardashian and Kendall Jenner have been confirmed to appear at Met Gala 2023.

Here are five reasons why the Kardashians will continue to be an integral part of the Met Gala for years to come.

Kim is the biggest influencer out there

Despite her controversial status, Kim is still a person to watch, thanks to her own successful clothing line and insane connections in the fashion world. While a decade ago she was nothing more than a spoiled reality TV star, today's Kim has millions of dedicated followers and is a true style icon who can turn even the most dubious fashion choice into a new trend.

Kendall is a supermodel

Just like Kim, Kendall is an important part of today's fashion, gracing the covers of the biggest fashion magazines and appearing on the runways of the best haute couture brands dozens of times a year.

The Met Gala simply can't afford not to invite Kendall, as she is the current face of the entire modeling business.

Kardashians' fans are very supportive

Although this may be hard for Wintour to admit, the Met Gala really does need the Kardashians because their millions of followers will ensure that Vogue gets lots of clicks on their live-stream.

Kardashians always dress to impress

While some of their fashion choices may be a bit questionable, there is no denying that each member of the Kardashian family makes an impression with their red carpet looks, and it doesn't really matter if that impression is bad or good. People will still be talking about their attire, making the Met Gala relevant for years to come.

Kardashians are a brand

The Kardashians are undoubtedly the most powerful celebrity family, so their appearances at the Met Gala really make the whole event desirable.

Fans want to watch, smaller celebrities want to attend, and big stars want to get the same attention as them — so ultimately, both the Kardashians and the event itself win from their attendance.

The 2023 Met Gala will take place on May 1. It will be streamed live on Vogue's official website and social media pages.
