Brooklyn Beckham looked downcast as he arrived solo to the 2024 Met Gala in New York City on Monday.

The eldest son of Victoria and David Beckham, 25, said he was ‘missing his beautiful wife’ Nicola Peltz as he took to Instagram stories on the way to the gala.

Brooklyn made sure to give his model and actress wife a shoutout before he graced the carpet on his own.

Before he took to the carpet, Brooklyn was seen at The Carlyle Hotel in a dapper white three-piece suit.

He accessorised with a chunky gold cupid necklace in a sweet tribute to his wife, who was spending time with her grandmother and a Piaget watch.

Despite looking incredibly handsome in his stylish ensemble, Brooklyn seemed lost without his gorgeous wife by his side.

The Costume Institute’s spring exhibition falls on the first Monday in May every year and is held at New York City‘s Metropolitan Museum of Art.

This year the event is titled Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion while the dress code is The Garden of Time.

Jennifer Lopez, Zendaya, Bad Bunny and Chris Hemsworth are this year’s co-chairs.  Also on the committee is Vogue’s Anna Wintour.

The honorary chairs for the evening are Loewe creative director Jonathan Anderson and TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew.

‘This year’s co-chairs reflect a variety of career achievements, and all have distinct style histories with the Met Gala,’ Vogue shared.

The showcase will feature approximately 250 items drawn from The Costume Institute’s permanent collection – with many of the pieces too fragile to ever be worn again.

The pieces will all be displayed using elements such as AI, GCI, and more while playing up themes of land, sea, and sky.

‘It is very much an ode to nature and the emotional poetics of fashion,’ said Andrew Bolton, Wendy Yu Curator in Charge of The Costume Institute, of the upcoming exhibition.
