Every year, the charity evening (Met or costume Institute Benefit) takes place at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, for the benefit of the Institute costume, the part of the museum dedicated to fashion.Indeed, the evening represents the main source of financing of the department and makes it possible to subsidize its acquisitions and its exhibitions.

Note: the Institute costume became a conservation department in 1959.It holds a collection of more than 33,000 objects retracing the history of clothing, from the 15th century to the present day.Or more than 7 centuries of archives!
