The Met Gala 2025 illuminated the night with an abundance of glamour, electrifying excitement, and a deep sense of purpose.
Hosted in the iconic Metropolitan Museum of Art, this year’s gala shattered records by raising an astounding $31 million for the esteemed Costume Institute.
With the evocative theme “Tailored for You,” the evening was a heartfelt homage to 300 years of Black fashion, culture, and heritage. This momentous gala marked a landmark occasion as the first Met Gala dedicated to Black designers and menswear, coinciding with the upcoming exhibition, “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” set to open on May 10.
As always, the evening was deftly steered by Vogue’s influential editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, along with co-chairs Pharrell Williams, Colman Domingo, A$AP Rocky, and honorary chair LeBron James.
