John Imah wears custom Charles Harbison to the 2026 Met Gala, celebrating “Costume Art,” at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 4, 2026, in New York City.

NEW YORK, May 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — John Imah wore a custom evening cape coat layered over a Matrix gold-encrusted vest, shell twill shirt, and constellation tuxedo with Aero trousers. The look was completed with a robotic glove, crystal earrings, and signature brooches.

Rendered in a soft vanilla palette, the ensemble features a Matrix gold-encrusted vest that subtly references technological circuitry—drawing inspiration from motherboard compositions while maintaining the hand-crafted artistry central to Harbison’s work. Robotic gloves extend this narrative, creating a considered interplay between the human form and engineered intelligence. The result is a look that feels both archival and futuristic—part ceremonial dress, part AI-era couture—evoking timeless form while introducing a forward-facing perspective on identity and technology.
