The Met Gala 2026 not only demands elegance in the dresses; it also imposes strict rules in the kitchen. Anna Wintour, the legendary editorial director, has officially banned ingredients considered “unglamorous” from the entire menu.
If you were expecting to see garlic, onion, chives, or parsley, forget it: they are strictly forbidden. The reason? The absolute horror of smiling at a Hollywood star and ending up with a piece of green herb stuck between your teeth.
Wintour confessed her aversion to these foods, which could put the aesthetic perfection of a night at risk, where fresh breath and an impeccable smile are mandatory. Between banning the use of phones and vetoing aioli, the organizers take care of every detail to avoid any social “disaster.”
