Two years on from Tim Gunn’s drama with Anna Wintour, who basically decides who does and doesn’t go to the Met Gala<\/a>, he’s still banned from attending the prestigious event. He may be the iconic guy who starred on Project Runway<\/a>, but that’s old news for Anna.<\/p>\n

Once you get banned from the Met Gala, you can actually get unbanned. That happened to Gwyneth Paltrow, who said the event sucked in 2013, but managed to attend in both 2017 and then in 2019. Tim got banned in 2024, and it’s believed his ban still stands today.<\/p>\n

Tim has unresolved drama with Anna, and opened up about it all back in 2016, telling New York Post, \u201cIt is very true. It is a crazy story, and as far as I\u2019m concerned, it\u2019s a very matter-of-fact story. I was asked what is the most unforgettable thing I\u2019ve ever seen in fashion.”<\/p>\n
