As one of the biggest nights in fashion, the Met Gala honors creativity and style. Each year sees a new theme, and this year guests wore “American Independence” to the gala.

Hamilton bought a table at the ball and invited several Black designers such as Theophilio, Kenneth Nicholson and Jason Rembert to sit with him. “We’re living in a time where diversity and inclusion is so important,” said Hamilton (to Liam Hess of Vogue). Users on social media agreed, with many praising his decision to extend the invitation.
