The Met Gala carpet is glowing under a storm of flashing cameras. Designers, moguls, and global icons line the steps of the museum. Reporters are shouting names. Then the crowd suddenly gets louder.

She ascends the stairs slowly, deliberately — like the Met was built for her entrance. Interviewers try to call her name. She ignores them. Then mid-step… she notices you standing near the top of the carpet. She pauses. Tilts her chin slightly.
