In a throwback update, the 67-year-old author reflected on her past experience at the ‘biggest fashion event’ of the year. Approximately two decades ago, the theme was set as ‘Jacqueline Kennedy: The White House Years.’ Naturally, the Kennedy family featured at the event. “Since it’s the first Monday in May and the Met Gala is underway, I thought I would share some photos from when I attended… all the way back in 2001!” she wrote in her caption.
