Mint to Be reimagines the feminine body as a living canvas where softness, power, fashion and storytelling converge.
Presented by Professor P and inspired by the Met Gala theme of Costume Art, Mint to Be reimagines the feminine body as a living canvas: soft yet powerful, adorned yet unbound, expressive in every form.
This immersive exhibit and event celebrate femininity as both art and narrative, where self-adornment becomes storytelling, and softness transforms into strength.
Guests will have access to various existing Mint Museum exhibitions, experience the Feminine Form exhibit, featuring original interpretations by local artists, centering voices from marginalized communities, alongside a dynamic runway competition, interactive activations, and moments that blur the boundaries between fashion, identity, and art.
More than an event, Mint to Be is a love letter to the feminine form; layered, intentional, and unapologetically seen.
Dress Code: Feminine Body as Costume Art
Come adorned as living art. Interpret femininity, softness, strength, and self-expression through fashion, texture, and storytelling. Sculptural, layered, artistic, and intentional looks are encouraged.
