2025 Met Gala: The Best Dressed Stars

Fashion’s biggest night is here

Like clockwork, the 2025 Met Gala—the biggest fashion event of the year took place today at the The Metropolitan Museum of Art, where the new Costume Institute’s annual exhibition will run from 10 May – 26 October 2025. As mentioned in our 2025 Met Gala: Everything to Know article, this year’s Costume Institute’s spring 2025 exhibition is “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style”, where it highlights the cultural and historical spectacle of Black style over 300 years through dandyism. So, the red carpet today was brimmed with A-listers and celebrities putting emphasis on menswear, tailored suits, sharp lines—ensembles that reflect black dandynism.

This directive led to a diverse array of fashion statements on the red carpet, from traditional tailoring to avant-garde ensembles. Ablaze with boldness, style and cultural heritage, the red carpet today was peppered with sartorial elegance. Each of the stars came telling a story of individuality and style. The evening’s fashion highlights included Zendaya’s menswear-inspired Louis Vuitton suit, Colman Domingo’s royal blue Valentino cape, and Diana Ross’s extravagant feathered gown. Other notable appearances were made by Lewis Hamilton, Rihanna and Dua Lipa marking a significant moment in the industry’s ongoing dialogue about identity, representation and culture.
