We now know who will be honored at the prestigious Met Gala next year.

The New York Metropolitan Museum of Art has announced that it will honor controversial fashion designer John Galliano at next year's Met Gala, marking his first appearance at the event. Galliano, who was born in Gibraltar but moved to London in the 1960s, is known for founding his own brand and serving as creative director for Givenchy and Dior. He is set to become the third designer to be honored by the Met Gala during his lifetime, according to the German news agency dpa. Galliano has faced controversy in the past, including being arrested in 2011 for making antisemitic and racist remarks while intoxicated. He admitted to being dependent on sleeping pills, painkillers, and alcohol, and later participated in rehabilitation in Switzerland and apologized publicly in London. Despite his controversies, he has since taken on new roles, including as creative director at Maison Margiela and signing a contract with Spanish fashion house Zara.
