With Vogue always providing the inspiration for the big event in New York City, it's no surprise that the magazine produced stunning Instagram videos inside the gala, which is usually off-limits to the public.

It's a rare opportunity to get a look inside the glamorous event. So, without further adieu, here are some of the best pics and clips from last night:

@katyperry couldn’t take a normal car to the #metgala due to her stunning wingspan. So she rode in a vintage convertible, giving her nearly six-foot feathered accessories room to flutter. Thankfully the Met’s halls are just as accommodating. Link in bio for more from the evening. Photographed by @cassblackbird

@badgalriri struts her stuff!

Who else but @badgalriri could pair a custom @maisonmargiela by John Galliano mitre and a minidress? She strutted among the statues of the Greek and Roman galleries. #metgala Directed by @bardiazeinali DP @kellyjeffrey Movement @mettenarrative Steadicam @yoshisteadiop Production @prodn_artandcommerce Edit & Post Production @modern.post Music @depechemode

A performance by Madonna?!

@madonna was the only one who could do this year’s #metgala exhibit, “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination,” justice—and she delivered with a surprise performance that was nothing short of divine.

Miley just being Miley.

@mileycyrus turned heads in the Wrightsman galleries in a @stellamccartney halter dress, and plenty of cross jewelry.
