Remember Taylor Swift's whack AF outfit from the Met Gala this year? The one that wooed Tom Hiddleston? Yeah, of course you do.

ICYMI, the theme was "Manus x Machina: Fashion in the Age of Technology," which according to The Met Museum's website, "explores how fashion designers are reconciling the handmade and the machine-made in the creation of haute couture and avant-garde ready-to-wear." 

If you haven't had a chance to see The Costume Institute's full exhibit, time hasn't run out just yet!

The Met is extending its hours to midnight on Friday, September 2nd and Saturday, September 3rd so fashion lovers can have a chance to see the exhibit.

TimeOut reports that the rest of the museum will be closed besides the Manus x Machina show and the Great Hall Balcony Bar. Score.

The exhibition features over 170 ensembles, both hand (manus) made and machine (machina) made, from the early 20th century to the present.

Luckily, for everyone who was too busy catching Pokemon all summer instead of taking in culture, the exhibit was extended past its initial close on August 14th. 

If you have plans next weekend, you still have until September 5th to view the exhibit.

A few of The Costume Institute's previous shows, "Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty" and "China: Through the Looking Glass" overstayed their dates as well, so it's no real surprise.

If you can stop by during their normal hours, they also have this insane replica of the Psycho house on their rooftop garden until Halloween, so you should definitely check that out too.
