The Met Gala could cement Lauren Sánchez's rise as a fashion star

• Lauren Sánchez may make her Met Gala debut on Monday, per reports.

• An appearance at the bash would boost Sánchez's ascendance as a fashion figure.

• Her fiancé, Jeff Bezos, has attended on multiple occasions.

Lauren Sánchez is poised to walk the Met Gala red carpet for the first time on Monday — if media reports are to be believed.

The Emmy-winning news anchor and philanthropist fiancée of Jeff Bezos will be in attendance at the preeminent fashion event, Amy Odell, a fashion journalist, reported.

Page Six also previously said that Anna Wintour, the Met Gala host and Condé Nast's global chief content officer, was wooing Sánchez to attend.

A representative for Sánchez declined to confirm to Business Insider if she'd attend.

This year's Met Gala theme is "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion," Vogue reported, and the dress code has been dubbed "The Garden of Time."

Bezos has appeared at the Gala in the past. It's one of the year's most important nights in fashion where celebrities mingle in outrageous outfits.

Amazon was the sponsor of the 2012 Met Gala; Bezos served as an honorary chair. He also attended in 2019.

As Business Insider's Amanda Krause previously reported, Sánchez is a rising fashion star. Her style has evolved in recent years: While she leaned toward simpler outfits early in her career, Sánchez has brought bold choices to the red carpet since 2010.

Semi-sheer and see-through dresses have become staples of her wardrobe. Last month, Sánchez and Bezos turned heads at a White House state dinner when Sánchez wore an off-the-shoulder gown with a corseted bodice.

Another sign of her ascendance as a bona fide celebrity?

After Sánchez was insulted by the New York City restaurateur Keith McNally on Instagram, several high-profile friends rushed to her defense, including Chrissy Teigen, Jessica Seinfeld, and Stephanie Ruhle.
