For a lot of Met Gala attendees, the theme meant to honor the evolving relationship between fashion and technology just meant wearing silver.

Instead of dressing like an astronaut to accompany his lady, Keith Urban just wore a normal tux, because he is no fun. Or maybe, in the future, astronauts wear tuxes to their fancy parties on Mars.
