- Lauren Sánchez may make her Met Gala debut on Monday, according to reports.
- An appearance at the bash would boost Sánchez's ascendance as a fashion figure.
- It won't be her fiancé's first time: 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 anchor and philanthropist fiancée of billionaire Amazon boss Jeff Bezos will be in attendance at the preeminent fashion event, according to fashion journalist Amy Odell.
Page Six also previously reported that Met Gala host and Condé Nast chief content officer Anna Wintour was wooing Sánchez to attend.
A rep for Sánchez declined to confirm she'd attend.
The theme of this year's Met Gala is "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion," according to Vogue, and the dress code has been dubbed "The Garden of Time."
In the past, Bezos has appeared at the Gala — 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, and Bezos served as an honorary chair. He also attended in 2019.
Sánchez is a rising fashion star, Business Insider's Amanda Krause previously reported, with her style evolving in recent years. While she leaned toward simpler outfits early in her career, Sánchez has brought bold choices to the red carpet since 2010.
Her semi-sheer or see-through dresses have become a staple of her wardrobe. Last month, Sánchez and Bezos turned heads at a White House state dinner, with Sánchez in an off-the-shoulder gown with a corseted bodice.
Another sign of her ascendance as a bonafide celebrity?
After Sánchez was insulted by the NYC restaurateur Keith McNally on Instagram, several high-profile friends rushed to her defense, including Chrissy Teigen, Jessica Seinfeld, and Stephanie Ruhle.
