Tomorrow is one of fashion’s most glamorous nights: the annual Met Gala in New York. But amid growing economic uncertainty the star-studded event is facing backlash over its display of excessive wealth. This year, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and his wife Lauren Sánchez Bezos are the lead sponsors and honorary chairs. An anti-billionaire activist group has papered New York City with posters calling for a boycott of “The Bezos Met Gala." And this year may be notable for the bold-faced names not attending, including New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.
