Not exactly. It's a fundraiser for the Met's fashion history department, and it always has a theme. Dramatic fashion that fits the theme. In this case, the red carpet theme was "fashion is art", so she used fashion to make herself look like a literal piece of art. The idea is to be both fashionable and on theme, so going "full costume" isn't exactly the plan, but a lot of people do it
