The Met Gala brings together the biggest names in fashion and entertainment — and this year is no different.
The 2025 Costume Institute Benefit will honor Black dandyism with its “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style” theme, inspired by Barnard College chair and professor Monica L. Miller’s 2009 book “Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity.”
Set to take place on Monday, May 5, at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, a slew of A-listers will be dressed in their tailored best, interpreting the theme of the night, which is “a nod to the exhibition’s focus on suiting and menswear,” The Met said in a press release.
While the high-profile charity event usually keeps its guest list tight-lipped, there are some stars already set to attend fashion’s biggest night.
Every year, the Met Gala celebrates the opening of the Costume Institute’s annual exhibition with co-chairs, alongside Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour.
