— -- The Met Gala is just moments away, but the stars have been prepping all afternoon.

From Katie Holmes, who's experimenting with a new haircut, to Allison Williams, they're documenting it all on social media.

"Dare me..... " Holmes wrote next to a photo of a man holding a pair of scissors above her locks.

To see if she made the chop, fans will have to wait for the actress and her designer friend Zac Posen to walk the red carpet.

This year's event, which is to be held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, is being chaired by Vogue's Anna Wintour, Jennifer Lawrence, Gong Li, Marissa Mayer and Wendi Murdoch. The theme is "China: Through the Looking Glass."

Though everything about the gala has been top secret, here's a glimpse into how a few A-listers are preparing.

Katie Holmes: "Dare me..... #metball @alternahaircare @olay @zac_posen @djquintero"
