Većina sinoćnih modnih hitova su bile kreacije legendarne japanske dizajnerke Rei Kavakubo, koja već decenijima stvara kolekcije za svoju modnu kuću Kom de garsons, osnovanu 1969. Gala humanitarna večera - kojoj prisustvuju brojne poznate ličnosti iz sveta muzike, mode, filma i medija - održava se u Metropolitenu svake godine prve nedelje u maju. Neki kažu da je Kavakubo ovog puta nije stvarala modne hitove, već kreacije koje najpre skreću pažnju i žena i muškaraca.
