We'll be updating the gallery above as photos begin to arrive online, so keep this tab open while you watch the livestream.

If you'd like to do more than watch, go to town in our comments section, where the author of the best piece of commentary from tonight's event gets a free year-long membership to the Met. Full details can be found here, but just a warning to all aspiring Perez Hiltons: anything too nasty will be disqualified.
