This year’s Met Gala proved one thing: the athletes have officially entered the chat. On Monday night, the grand staircase of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York became a runway for some of the sports world’s biggest stars, including Saquon Barkley, Serena Williams, Lewis Hamilton and more.

Met Gala is underway in New York City and some of the biggest names in sports are in attendance, including 11-time Olympic gold medalist Simone Biles, Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley and WNBA star Angel Reese -- who is part of the host committee.

The Windy City was well-represented at Monday night's star-packed event, the first to focus exclusively on Black designers, and the first in more than 20 years to have a menswear theme.
