The Met Gala red carpet has officially returned for 2025, kicking off fashion’s most anticipated night with a distinct shift in focus. This year’s theme, 'Tailored for You', reflects the spirit of the Costume Institute’s spring exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, titled 'Superfine: Tailoring Black Style'. The result? A red carpet shaped by sharp lines, bold suiting, and the ongoing conversation between heritage and modern style.
A diverse team of co-chairs — Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton, A$AP Rocky, Pharrell Williams, and Anna Wintour — led the event, joined by LeBron James as honorary chair.
Roughly 450 guests made their entrance under the famed Met steps, delivering personal takes on this year’s tailoring brief. Among those spotted: Zendaya, Nicole Kidman, Jeremy Allen White, Anne Hathaway, Lana Del Rey, Sabrina Carpenter and many more. From dramatic reinterpretations of the classic tuxedo to fresh expressions of identity through fabric and cut, the red carpet proved that menswear — however it’s defined — is far from one-note.
