Summary

The Run Through is reporting live from the self-titled ‘war room’ where Vogue staffers spent last night's Met Gala publishing all your favorite stories! From Diana Ross’ 18-foot embroidered train to the baby grand piano strapped to Andre 3000’s back, we captured the ambiance of what it's really like to be a Vogue editor during one of the most impactful fashion evenings of the year.

Then Chioma and Janicza Bravo, fresh from an Usher and Stevie Wonder post-dinner performance, join Chloe to dissect the night's biggest moments. Hint: Rihanna announcing her third pregnancy was a top highlight!

PLUS: Zach Stafford, from one of our favorite podcasts Vibe Check, interviews Chioma in-studio to break down the importance of this year's theme.
